Hello, I think we still haven't seen how to setup an UI yet. I don't mean the actual UI (buttons, functionality, etc) but how it interacts with the rest of the game. For example creating a simple pause menu - where is the UI stored, how do we activate it when we hit the pause button, what is the proper way to stop the rest of the game from running. What are the best practices on that topic with Playmaker. We've seen many cool effects and game fragments, but we haven't seen how to actually get there as an end user.

If not tonight, I'll make one about this tomorrow.

Camera single image capture tutorial.  Imagine the player has a camera, and they take a picture that is saved so that I can have an image inventory.

That would be really helpful.

Yes, arraymaker would be nice.  A thought would be to use it in conjunction with RagDoll since ragdoll has 11 items.

Native arrays are something Alex is working on for an update soon, so ArrayMaker tutorials are on the backburner for now but expect something on the Array front soon.

Also i need to know how to work with multitarget in vuforia , and thank you :)

This is something fairly advanced, I'll look into it and investigate making it work so I can produce a tutorial, but it'll be some time.

Great tuts Lane, very informative and helpful!

I'm glad you like them =)

Camera single image capture tutorial.  Imagine the player has a camera, and they take a picture that is saved so that I can have an image inventory.

As mentioned via our pm's, this would require Pro for RenderTextures so you wouldn't be able to accomplish it =/

Any chance for a NGUI version?

I don't use NGUI myself and haven't checked out the provided example scenes but if the examples aren't clear then I can get into it and make tutorials. What do you think?

Huge thank you for the request response. Amazing and very helpful!

You're welcome! =)
