[PLUGIN] Game Tagger

**stigzler** · July 16, 2014

Another piece of fantastic work, Adultery. Your hard work's appreciated.

**DazzleHP** · July 18, 2014

[small Request] I know you're busy at the moment but i really think this will put a frosty glaze on your iced bun - a full sized preview option! Maybe have it open in your default browser with some generic text so we can see what it looks like. At the moment we have to actually set it as our own tag, boot GameEx then refresh our profile page. If you're creating a particularly complicated tag with many layers it can get a bit tiresome. I know we can see a preview in the plugin config but it's tiny!

This is when you tell me it's already available and i missed it

**Adultery** · July 18, 2014

Hate to tell you, but you're right, you missed it... Haha!

Click on the preview image in the plugin configuration and it opens a full size preview.

GAHHHHHHHHHHHH i tried in an earlier incarnation, i just didn't think to try it again :rolleyes: well in that case, i think this plugin is just amazing! The public will no doubt gobble it up like crazy i'm sure more than a few have been wondering why some of us have personalised tags

**Tempest** · July 18, 2014

I said it before, but I will say it again. This is one of the coolest things on the forum.

**DazzleHP** · July 19, 2014

When can we expect to donate user themes? I have some in the running, but i scrutinize myself far too much so i'm wondering if i should just hurry up or take my time? I'm asking because i want to do what i can with this project - i absolutely love it and i know that not everyone is adept at digital artistry and so would like to see a nice selection available to those users

**Adultery** · July 19, 2014

I haven't started it yet... I mean the theme database is done and the download page is scraping it already, but I need to make the actual upload page and a portal where users can manage their theme uploads, and hook them into your control panel. I can totally put them in manually if you do some with no hassle, it's really just the self service end of it that isn't ready.

To be honest it's probably a weekend job, as in it well take a couple days. It's next in line but I have a ton of work that was dumped on me at the office right now, so I'm not sure when I'll get to it. Sooner than later though.

OK cool! So i have some time left it was the mention of it recently that made me assume it was close, but i like "soon"

**Adultery** · July 19, 2014

Yeah I'm sorry, I ended up working on fixing bugs and a few other side things when I should have been working on that.

Like I said though, if you finish one and want me to add it, it's really no problem at all.

**Draco1962** · July 19, 2014

Is there any way to downsize my fonts? It seems all of them are larger than they should be.

**Adultery** · July 19, 2014

Not at the present time, but I may add that later. Some fonts just plain don't play nice with your tag, they're all 18pt hard coded (or maybe it's 14pt) but apparently not all fonts are the same size... Some are wider, some taller... I will probably add a setting in the form of large, small, and medium but I doubt I'll code in for specific sizes.

Holy cheezums! That's one effin big font lol But yeh i understand where Adultery is coming from. You're a theme designer so you must know by now that font sizes don't mean ~~shit~~ anything i wish there was some sort of standard but there just doesn't seem to be :wacko:

**Draco1962** · July 19, 2014

It seems to be hit or miss (more miss) for me as these lately. Some control is better than no control I guess. The fonts are all TTF so you would think that they would scale rougly the same.

**Draco1962** · July 19, 2014

Tried Arcadeclassic.ttf and now it looks horrid and illegible.

**Draco1962** · July 20, 2014

I tried the Action Man.ttf and here is what the Tag Preview looks like:

This is acceptible to me. Next is what actually shows in the forums and on the Game Tagger CP:

It is as if the colors are being stripped and the natural boldness of the text is being stripped. Not entirely sure why this is.

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

It's falling back to the default black outline color and white fill color. I must have a bug in there, but I don't know why it would only seemingly show on your tag and not everyone else's...

If you could zip me up that theme so I can have a go at it I can fix it.

I don't have the laptop handy but I will have a look at it. Is it an alpha color or html?

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

It seems to at least be the correct font, right?

Can I get your plugin log too please buddy?

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

If youre using alpha color, could you try the html variant or vice versa just to test?

**Draco1962** · July 20, 2014

Here is the log:

GameEx Support File Data

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

Okay. Can you do the color swap I asked for?

PS: I fixed that regex error already. It's I'm the next update.

**Draco1962** · July 20, 2014

Not sure how/where to insert the line fo rthe alpha color. Right now just using html. Here is the theme. I am using the Action Man font. I included some of the other fonts I had tested with very mixed results as mentioned previously.

Pac-Man.zip

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

Can you try this one Drac and see if it works? I think I know where the bug is, I just want to confirm.

**Draco1962** · July 20, 2014

That looks better and closer to the Game Tagger preview on the Game Tagger site. Waiting for it to update here.

**Adultery** · July 20, 2014

Now I gotta figure out why html isn't working. Lol!

**Draco1962** · July 20, 2014

At least I had an excuse to get a little more time in with Brutal Legend!
