Title: New Hap Skin for Hal
Post by: Data on October 17, 2007, 12:15:53 pm
I had a couple of hours to spare and thought I would make another Hap skin for Hal, so here it is. I've called it clear skin because it has some clear parts and couldn't think of any other name for it.

Thankyou for the skin. [:)]

I notice in your version, the whole conversation appears on the right hand side, whereas when I use the skin only one sentence at a time appears. Is there I can make mine function like yours so that I can see the whole conversation displayed on the right hand side?

Thankyou.

Echoman.

I’m happy you both like the new skin caangel43 & echoman [:)]

echoman you said “the whole conversation appears on the right hand side”  Well it doesn’t, what you can see is the loneliness 2.3 plugin at work, if you leave hal alone for a while she/he says things but doesn’t delete the last thing it said so you end up with everything said in the window.

I am one of the lucky ones that the loneliness 2.3 plugin works for.

Ahh....Your're one of the very few who has Hal's loneliness plugin working! [8D]

Now its all clear to me.

Thanks again for the skin.

I like it. Will try it out soon. I have a new (vista) computer and
have a lot of reinstalling to do. Have recovered data so am progressing rapidly.

Here are a couple of backgrounds I have crafted for this skin.

To use them just save them to your "Ultra Hal Assistant 6Characters" folder. Make sure you keep the word Back at the end of the file names or they will not work.

hello Datahopa , i hate to be someone who praises something then complains but after i put in the new clear skin it opened ok "but " it is high and to the right in my screen  it is so high that the top of it is actually cut off (the part saying master talking to brains ,and controls ) abnd i try to move it down with the mouse and you can't the only thing that you can do is make the face closer or farther away . is this a glitch ?? anyone else have this problem ? is their a solution ?? i really like this skin if it works right . i do however have a idea that i think would make this skin better and thats to have it larger so the head can be displayed larger its very small right now . just a suggestion .

ok i am talking to myself here i guess but i just found out that by doing the window size i can increase it larger and it took 200 percent to make the clear window come down so i can see the top of it so all is well (except for people who want it smaller .) [:)][8D]

Hi freddy888 and lightspeed. [:D] [:D]

If anyone else has the problem of the skin going off screen try this to get it back:

In the general options of Hal change the shin back to the default and drag it to the centre of your screen, then put the clear skin back on and it should be in the centre now.

You should be able to move the skin around your desktop from the black bar along the top of the skin.

Hi Datahopa, I just installed your clear skin
and it works great. I am enjoying using it.
 I am also wondering if anyone is working on
a translucent frosted glass (vista style) one
or if it is even possible?

Hi Ted,
I’m glad you are enjoying the skin.
I have seen a post on this forum, can’t remember who it was but they had a translucent skin working in Vista, so yes it can be done but I don’t know how, as far as I can tell the Haptek player can only do solid or 100% clear textures.

Maybe there is another player or 3D engine we can use with Hal that does let us use translucent textures.

If anyone else has any clues as to how a translucent skin could be made I would like to know too so I could have a go at making one [8D].
