Text Editor for World Editor v2

[GottaGo]

 

Hey !

 

If like me you like to put text in your world, for signs for examples or whatever, you probably know how hard and boring it can sometimes be to put everything at the good place.

Well, i spend some time to create a little script which will do this boring task instead of you

It's just a simple html page with some javascript.

Type a name for the .world file you wish to generate (For exemple "text_test_1", the script will automatically add ".world").

Type your text in the text field.

 

Then click generate and well, congratulations ! You got a .world file with your text, ready to be merged on your map !

The text come as a grouped object so you can easily manipulate it !

You can also input your own font by following this tutorial :

Anyway please remember that the number of object can really impact the performances required to run the map, so be carefull if you want to do some long text, as it generate a big number of objects.

 

Have fun

Wow nothing to add to the people from above just maybe 

 

thank you works fine for me 

[GottaGo]

Thank you !

Right now it only handle letters and numbers (and space and linebreak of course)

I might add basic punctuation later, like ?!:,.$

 

Feel free to post some feedback if you encounter issues.

So if you are willing to keep up this awesome work woud be nice to add some curves for a smooth  "S" as an exemple :

[Rodin]

if not very happy with it saves a lot of time buddy thank you again so much 

[GottaGo]

It might be doable. Right now i only work with boxes, adding cylinder shouldn't be really hard.

What is pretty awful is to position each part of each char but well i might add some tutorial too so each player can do his own font for examples.

Sentences order issue fixed

[THX]

I'm working on re-creating another adult game for over here. Any way you can make the font a bit bigger? like .5. .01 is kinda small and 1 is too big.  Also, the G is missing the little bit that makes a C a G.

 

Otherwise an excellent tool. I have lot's of writing to do.

 

[GottaGo]

I can do that pretty easily and will try to upload that today. If you don't want to wait, simply edit the file with a text editor and search something like :

<select>

<option value="0.1">0.1</option>

Etc

</select>

Simply copy paste one of the <option> line inside the select tags and put the value you want.

It will work.

Hey, i updated the file to add more sizes, i hope you will find what you need

 

I also added another features that let group text either fully, as a whole object, by word, or by line.

 

That way you can put all your text on a single file and only have to move the line one by one.

 

I hope it will help

This is the greatest thing ever! Thank you so much for making this.  

[GottaGo]

Thank you !

I discovered an issue with some sizes. I will post a fix soon.

 

Edit : It's fixed and should be ok now

[GottaGo]

By the way, next plan are to replace the current not so good looking font with NiceKati awesomest one, it might look a lot better that way.

 

If enough people are interested, i might work on a maze generator later as i love to add them to my maps and it can be really long to do a good looking one.

would it not be possible to add the various fonts that are already out there to your program?

It would, but it would also take days and days of work.

 

Basically, each element of a letter have to be positioned relatively to a X-Y axis, and each letter have to take almost the same space for things to work smoothly. As the coordinates are relatives to the center of the object, it's awful and require testing and testing and testing (which mean that for each letter, you have to generate a file, load it in the world editor, adjust it, then redo it over and over again until it look the way you want).

 

I won't add any more font after NiceKati one, but i will add a way to support multi font on the script, and put a small tutorial on how it work. That way, if someone want to add his own font, he will be able to do so and share it here.

[THX]

I think the font scale may be off.

 

Positions at top was created on .05

 

Positions in middle was created in .01

 

But damn this saves so much time.

This should be fun.

 

I remember when you did this in RLC.

Yes, it really is. Makes things much easier.

Still working great….

Hi all.

It's been a long time but i finally updated it with a really better looking font which was created by another player. I will need to find this player name to give her (if i remember correctly) credits.

It's really looking better that way and the new script can handle almost any font As long as you have enough patience to save each letter separately and put it inside the script.

I removed the size factor. Now if you want to change the text size, you will have to select "Center" in the world editor menu, then use the resizing tool while holding shift. That way you can make it any size you want.

Wish you all a good time with it Be carefull though, it can pretty quickly goes to a pretty big size. My example below is 66Kb.
