what do you mean by "bring the monitor up" and "move the monitor down"?

oh you mean like a laptop? well all you need is this:
first, your laptop model should be made up of two parts (or lets say, 2 limbs), 1 for the monitor and one for the keyboard, now lets assume that LIMBID is the ID of the screen limb, here's what you can do

Hey nice example,
However i am looking more for having a button in game that looks like a VCR play button and you press with the mouse. then the animation starts... Do you have example for that.
Thank you,
Leroy

try to do it yourself we have enough work on our hands , ask questions about the code but dont ask for samples...

... " i would like some sample code "...

Hassan gave you a code , you liked it but not so much , trust me Hassan can build you all of your program , but why should he?

to me it looks like you wont spend time learning yourself , you just want us to make the hard work for you..

and if it walk like a duck , first quote, and talk like a duck , second quote, its a duck.

pls understand we have a lot of work on our hands, you cant just come here and ask for samples and then when "its nice" but not what you wanted you ask for another.. learn learn learn like the rest of us , its ok to ask question we would like to help , but you cant really rely only on us. go learn for yourself.

btw , to animate something using a button , you have 2 choices
1 , a 3d button - look for dbPickObject in the refrence under 3D basic section.
2 , a 2d button which wont help you , you have to take the dbMouseX and dbMouseY and check its position relative to the 2D button which will probably be a sprite.

you can search the forum , or even better go to the TheGameCreators.com , and in the search feature type what you need ,
Animating using Buttons , you may get some DarkBasicPro instead of DarkGDK commands but they are the same jsut without the db ,spaces,braces..

In respone, TO; " trust me Hassan can build you all of your program , but why should he?"

Do you speak for other people like Mr. Hassan. Because if you do you need to learn how to be more Professional about speaking for him.

Secondly how dare you tell what i can to or not do here on the messages board. Let me tell you something, You better get used to me being around this message board because i am hear to say. So you better get used to it. Games are for kids watch you seem to be playing with me and it's not funny.

NOw please get a life and go bother someone who gives a damm.
I am hear to learn something about the game engine weather you like or not.


Next time you see a posting from me move on even if you think you have answer because in only three posts i don't like and i don't like who you think you are UNDERSTAND?


Thank you,
Leroy

this is what you need:
1- check if the mouse is clicked
2- if so, check if the mouse is over the button (dbPickObject)
3- if so, check if we are close enough (normal distance formula)
4- if so, we are ready to open
some code:


hope it helps
