Ultra Hal 7.0 / Skins and characters

« on: May 22, 2013, 01:30:11 pm »

I'm sort of a part time Hal user, and really trying to develop some real time uses for the Ultra Hal program.

First thing I would love to do is personalize my program.
I would like to create a custom character, and custom skins.
I do not want a full character, instead I would like to have an automated audio wave like this.

And I would like to be able to build a skin like this.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Programming using the Ultra Hal Brain Editor / Q&A

« on: October 17, 2012, 10:15:12 am »

I would like to used the Brain editor to program Hal to troubleshoot problems. Example: User: "My computer will not power on." Hal: "Is the computer plugged in?" User:"Yes." Hal:"Are there any lights or LEDs on that suggest power to the motherboard?" User: "No." Hal: "Do you have a power supply tester?" User: "No." Hal: "There is a good possibility that your power supply maybe at fault. I suggest you either test your current power supply, or replace it." Now, if the user answered no to the question of, "Is the computer plugged in?" Hal would give the answer, "Please plug the computer into the proper outlet and proceed with normal operations."

Now I realize the countless scenarios that have to be enter into the editor, but I'm looking for a known working procedure that would give me the responses to yes or no question, and follow a logical ladder diagram.

I am a technician/engineer of sorts and I sometimes find myself over thinking problems, and issues. It would be nice to use Hal as a partner, in the realm of what I do, and keep someone around that can keep me on track, with simplicity, and logical thought.
