How do I set up this kind of GUI in Playmaker?
« on: August 25, 2011, 10:53:39 AM »
Hi, I am totally new in Playmaker, and I am stucked here in making this GUI. In a first person controller game, when I press an object, I want a menu show up and the camera will be paused, how could I stop the camera turnning around, and just keep the game pausing, and just choose the menu? Thank u for helping me. I have been stucked here for two days, and could not think any solutions, HELP ME.

Use scale time again, but with a value of 1 (default)

Take a look at the GUIElement samples in PlayMakerSamples. 3 Buttons shows buttons sliding in and out.

You can also animate individual fields in GUI actions (e.g., use a float variable to control x position, and animate that variable using one of the animation actions).

You can find the 3 Buttons samples in the Playmaker install: PlayMakerSamples/TestLab/GUIElement/3Buttons
