Missing shadow under nicknames etc. in players panels?

[konrad509]

There used to be a shadow under nicknames, tank names etc. in players panels. Now there isn't. Is it some kind of bug? Or maybe it's not even XVM issue?

Attach your PlayersPanel.xc

[konrad509]

I don't think there's need for that. There doesn't seem to any shadow settings. But anyway, here it is playersPanel.xc

[lina_wot]

Have noticed that as well.

We couldn't know what's in your config

[konrad509]

But you could know what there is in the default config. If there is no such setting in the default config, then surely you won't find one in mine ;)

There is. It is possible to add various shadow parameters, which is described in the commented out part of the default PlayersPanel.xc

*
 *   http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filters/DropShadowFilter.html
 *   "shadow": {
 *     "enabled"
 *     "distance" (in pixels)
 *     "angle"    (0.0 .. 360.0)
 *     "color"    "0xXXXXXX"
 *     "alpha"    (0.0 .. 100.0)
 *     "blur"     (0.0 .. 255.0)
 *     "strength" (0.0 .. 255.0)
 *     "quality"
 *     "inner"
 *     "knockout"
 *     "hideObject"
 *   }

I guess he is talking about standard fields. I don't touch their shadows, may be they have no shadows on vanilla client too?

My bad. I wasn't sure whether those shadow parameters are only applicable to extra fields.

I checked it on vanilla client, but somehow with all this white text I wasn't sure whether there is a shadow or not, but I think you may be right.

Anyway, thanks.

I'll make shadow settings for this fields, but not right now.

[sirmax]

added options in the "playersPanel" modes sections:
   "fragsShadowLeft", "fragsShadowRight" - shadow for frags field
   "nickShadowLeft", "nickShadowRight" - shadow for player name field
   "vehicleShadowLeft", "vehicleShadowRight" - shadow for vehicle name field

[konrad509]

btw on vanilla playerspanel alpha is 100 and on xvm 80

added options in the "playersPanel" modes sections:

   "fragsShadowLeft", "fragsShadowRight" - shadow for frags field

   "nickShadowLeft", "nickShadowRight" - shadow for player name field

   "vehicleShadowLeft", "vehicleShadowRight" - shadow for vehicle name field

where are the sections ? 

[konrad509]

You won't find them in stable release. They're added in nightly build.

thx !

I tried to use the same syntax as I use in my shadows in extraFields, and it doesn't change anything:

 

Example: "fragsShadowLeft": { "enabled": true, "alpha": 100, "angle": 90, "color": "0x000000", "distance": 0, "blur": 4, "strength": 2 },

 

Nightly build 6313.

[konrad509]

I'm not using nightly build, so I didn't test it yet, but I think it may not be the correct syntax.

[scyorkie]

So has anyone figured out the correct syntax?
