TShowImg.actor

[Mark Sir Link]

I'm using a GuiShowImgCtrl to display a preview of something can be edited.

I am able to modify the headimg and bodyimg just fine, but for some reason I am having issues with shieldimg.

For example, for a UI element I have

text = thiso.headimg and it works fine
text = thiso.shieldimg doesn't work, though.

I know that these are set, but for some they don't appear to be working.

if I check the UIElement (ie Window.actor.shieldimg) it returns the correct image, but it doesn't display the image on the TShowImg.

I'm at a loss, anyone have any ideas?

Try shield instead maybe?

I've been having unexpected issues with character shields all of a sudden lately aswell, regardless of it being "shield" or "shieldimg".

I always had them, I guess

if you're talking about just a showcharacter, they need a shieldpower set to 1 or higher to display a shield.

I'm still stumped on the TShowImg actor though.

This works for me, and I've never had any problems:

PHP Code:

temp.char = YourControl.actor;
temp.char.shield = "shield_img_here.png";

changing shieldimg to shield seems to fix it

I've never set shieldpower within showcharacters and shields have always displayed fine, the issue i've had as of late is simply the shield value not being readable despite being displayed, I thought this may be linked to your problem but guess not.
