Unity3D - How to make a texture changing mute button/toggle? - audio

I'm trying to make a mute button for in my android game menu, so when I press the button, the texture changes from a playing speaker symbol to a muted speaker symbol (which I've already made in Photoshop).
So when the audio is playing it will have a 'speaker' symbol, but when I press it, it will change to a 'muted speaker' symbol (a speaker with a cross).
Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated!

first we make a maintexture as the texture that is always used and on awake we put our texture1(speaker) assign to it and if button is pressed we change it to texture2(mute)
public Texture2D Texture1;
public Texutre2D Texture2;
public bool textureBool;
void Awake() {
textureBool=true;
void OnGUI(){
if( GUI.Button( rect , textureBool ? texture1:texture2 ) )
{
textureBool = !textureBool;
}
}

You can also use UI button in this way:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class ChangeSprite : MonoBehaviour {
public Image image;
public bool isPress = false;
public Button button;
public Sprite Fsprite;
public Sprite Ssprite;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
image = button.GetComponent <Image>();
}
// Update is called once per frame
public void ChangeSprites () {
isPress = !isPress;
if ( isPress == true )
{
image.sprite = Ssprite;
}
else
{
image.sprite = Fsprite;
}
}
}

How to move an Object to a specific location with a Button in Unity?

I'm new to Unity and am currently using Unity2D. What I want to do is that when a button is pressed an object moves and goes to a specific location. Currently I'm using:
public class MoveCard : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 20f;
public Rigidbody2D rb;
public Vector2 pos = new Vector2(5,1);
void Update(){
}
void CardMovement(){
rb.MovePosition(pos * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
I want the function CardMovement to initiate when I press a button, but it's not showing up in the Button Inspector and I don't know how to reference a Rigidbody2D in a button. How do I do this?
In the inspector in the buttons 'OnClickEvent' menu, click the plus button, drop in the object that contains 'MoveCard' component. In the drop box on the right find the method 'CardMovement'. Just a note in your current code you have it set up so if you press the button it will move only one frame's worth of movement. You could change to something like this:
public class MoveCard : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 20f;
public Rigidbody2D rb;
public Vector2 pos = new Vector2(5,1);
public bool moving = false;
void Update(){
if (moving) {
rb.MovePosition(pos * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
void CardMovement(){
moving = true;
}
}
edit (still not a bad idea):
//..
void FixedUpdate()
{
if (moving) {
rb.MovePosition(pos * Time.fixedDeltaTime);
}
}
//..
edit edit: set isKinematic to true on the rigidbody
The function your button is calling should be public.
public void CardMovement(){
rb.MovePosition(pos * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
After you change it, assign again the object that has the script and try.
what you have to do is make a function in a script and apply that script to a game object. after making that create the button and click on the add function button to the button and drag the gameobject into the open section. afterwards chose the function from the listed scripts you added and have it call the move object script or whatever you called it.

LibGdx: How to set a separate viewport for UI elements?

I'm trying to code a simple maze with a character that moves using a Joystick (touchpad). I used a Fit viewport to maintain the aspect ration of my maze while keeping it at the center of the screen;
However, I find that that the joystick is also added beside the maze. sample of what it looks like currently
I want the joystick to be of the far bottom-left of the screen. I tried doing this using a different viewport for UI elements (including the joystick), but then the whole maze just gets distorted.
Here is part of my BaseScreen class, an extension I made to reuse in other games as well:
public abstract class BaseScreen implements Screen, InputProcessor {
public BaseScreen(){
gameWorldHeight = 1024;
gameWorldWidth = 1024;
cam = new OrthographicCamera(gameWorldWidth, gameWorldHeight);
port = new FitViewport(cam.viewportWidth, cam.viewportHeight, cam);
port.apply();
cam.update();
mainStage = new Stage(port);
uiStage = new Stage(port);
uiTable = new Table();
uiTable.setFillParent(true);
uiStage.addActor(uiTable);
initialize();
}
public abstract void initialize();
public void render(float dt) {
mainStage.getCamera().update();
uiStage.getCamera().update();
uiStage.act(dt);
mainStage.act(dt);
update(dt);
mainStage.draw();
uiStage.draw();
}
public abstract void update(float dt);
public void resize(int width, int height) {
mainStage.getViewport().update(width,height, true);
uiStage.getViewport().update(width,height,false);
}
}
Here is also a part of my gameScreen class, where I actually code all the core mechanics of the game
public class gameScreen extends BaseScreen {
#Override
public void initialize() {
//..
uiTable.pad(10);
uiTable.add().expandX().expandY();
uiTable.row();
uiTable.add(ball.touchpad).left();
uiTable.add().expandX();
}
}
and in case you were wondering, here is what ball.touchpad is
public class Ball extends BaseActor {
public Touchpad touchpad;
public Touchpad.TouchpadStyle touchpadStyle;
public Skin touchpadSkin;
public Drawable touchBackground;
public Drawable touchKnob;
public Ball (float x, float y, Stage s) {
//..
//Create a touchpad skin
touchpadSkin = new Skin();
//Set background image
touchpadSkin.add("touchBackground", new Texture("touchBackground.png"));
//Set knob image
touchpadSkin.add("touchKnob", new Texture("touchKnob.png"));
//Create TouchPad Style
touchpadStyle = new Touchpad.TouchpadStyle();
//Create Drawable's from TouchPad skin
touchBackground = touchpadSkin.getDrawable("touchBackground");
touchKnob = touchpadSkin.getDrawable("touchKnob");
//Apply the Drawables to the TouchPad Style
touchpadStyle.background = touchBackground;
touchpadStyle.knob = touchKnob;
//Create new TouchPad with the created style
touchpad = new Touchpad(10, touchpadStyle);
//setBounds(x,y,width,height)
touchpad.setBounds(15, 15, 200, 200);
}
So how can i add this touchpad on the bottom left of the screen?

NullReferenceException Fire Ball

I'm working on this game breakout-game
And i'm trying to make the ball fire and collide with the wall bouncing, to do that I did what he said, I added a script and put this code:
public class BallMove : MonoBehaviour {
private Rigidbody rb;
public float ballVelocity = 800f;
private bool isMove;
// Use this for initialization
void awake() {
rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Fire1") && isMove == false) {
transform.parent = null;
isMove = true;
rb.isKinematic = false;
rb.AddForce (new Vector3(ballVelocity,ballVelocity,0));
}
}
}
I understand every line of this code, but when I try to play this, I got a nullReferenceException ,I can run the game but when I press the key I'm getting a error,someone know why? and what happens?
You should use Awake(), not awake(). In your case, you are using a "customized" function, and not the "official" one used by the Unity engine.
So, the engine cannot start that function by itself, and rb stills null when used in the Update().
Example:
void Awake() {
rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();
}

MvvmCross binding iOS Gestures

I'm searching a way how can i bind ios gesture like UILongPressGestureRecognizer to ICommand or MvxCommand in MvvmCross, thanks.
PS : I found an example here but i can't figure out how to do that.
From the example you found and from the current MVVM Cross source I did the following
public static class MvxBehaviourExtensions
{
public static MvxLongPressGestureRecognizerBehaviour LongPress(this UIView view)
{
var toReturn = new MvxLongPressGestureRecognizerBehaviour(view);
return toReturn;
}
}
and
public class MvxLongPressGestureRecognizerBehaviour
: MvxGestureRecognizerBehavior<UILongPressGestureRecognizer>
{
protected override void HandleGesture(UILongPressGestureRecognizer gesture)
{
// Long press recognizer fires continuously. This will ensure we fire
// the command only once. Fire as soon as gesture is recognized as
// a long press.
if (gesture.State == UIGestureRecognizerState.Began)
{
FireCommand();
}
}
public MvxLongPressGestureRecognizerBehaviour(UIView target)
{
var lp = new UILongPressGestureRecognizer(HandleGesture);
AddGestureRecognizer(target, lp);
}
}
and to bind
set.Bind(this.LongPress()).For(lp => lp.Command).To(c => c.DoTheStuffCommand);

Display a new view from within a custom control

I have a custom button which inherits from UIButton. I'm handling the TouchUpInside event and want to display a view on top of the current View. Is there such a thing as Dialogs like in Windows development? Or should I do this in another way?
[MonoTouch.Foundation.Register("HRPicker")]
public class HRPicker : UIButton
{
public HRPicker () : base()
{
SetUp();
}
public HRPicker(NSCoder coder) : base(coder)
{
SetUp();
}
public HRPicker(NSObjectFlag t) : base(t)
{
SetUp();
}
public HRPicker(IntPtr handle) : base(handle)
{
SetUp();
}
public HRPicker(RectangleF frame) : base(frame)
{
SetUp();
}
public void SetUp()
{
TouchUpInside += HandleTouchUpInside;
}
void HandleTouchUpInside (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//I want to display a View here on top of the current one.
}
}
Thanks,
Yes, you have a couple options:
ModalViewController - is called from any UIViewController and overlays a ViewController in the foreground.
UIPopoverController - is a native control that takes a UIViewController and has hooks for presentation and dismissal
WEPopoverController - is a re-implementation of UIPopoverController and allows you to customize the layout, size, and color of the Popover container.
ModalViewController: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UIViewController_Class/Reference/Reference.html
UIPopoverController: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UIPopoverController_class/Reference/Reference.html
WEPopoverController: https://github.com/mono/monotouch-bindings/tree/master/WEPopover
Update: Regardless of which option you use you must call the presentation of the Popover / Modal view from the main thread:
using(var pool = new NSAutoReleasePool()) {
pool.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(()=>{
// Run your awesome code on the
// main thread here, dawg.
});
}
The equivalent of dialog in Cocoa is UIAlertView: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UIAlertView_Class/UIAlertView/UIAlertView.html
Check out this question for an example of how to use it: Showing an alert with Cocoa
The code should be pretty easy to translate to c# and MonoTouch. But here is a simple example: http://monotouchexamples.com/#19
