'Afternoon all . . . :)

I have a question about part of the creation of a ZScript. :confused:

I've created a ZScript tutorial, that while recording the Script, I had open & used the Texture Master ZScript. I'm in the process of editing the text inserts into the Script, but here's the problem: When I play the Script back, there is no visual appearance of the Texture Master??? :(

Without being able to see the Texture Master during the replay of the ZScript, I can't very well place "Notes" in the Script showing what to do & where to do it, concerning the Texture Master part of the Script tutorial??? :rolleyes:

If anybody from Pixologic or even from the forum can give me an answer or solution to this problem, I would sure appreciate it. Then I could finish my ZScript Tutorial. ;)

I hope this question isn't answered with, "It depends on where each & every person viewing the Script, has the Texture Master located on their hard drive???" :(

Thanks in advance & have a good one . . . :cool: Mark.

Kruzr,

It sound like it may work for you to copy and paste the entire TextureMaster Script into your tutorial as a subsection. Then you can be assured that the TextureMaster Script will be usable by someone viewing your ZScript tutorial.

Hey Mark,

I'll be interested in the answer to this, too. I was trying to set up my default work environment using a script that included opening Texture Master as the last action. Didn't work. Maybe no script-within-a-script allowed?

I haven't dug into zScripting yet, but since it's just text, I'm guessing there's gotta be a way to accomplish this.

Thor and Kruzr,

It worked for me. You will need to copy and paste the entire text of the TextureMaster ZScript into your own. You may need to save the completed ZScript in the same directory as the Texturemaster ZScript.

Here's something you may not have tried...

Instead of copying and pasting, add this line:

<zscriptinsert,"TextureMasterRevE.txt">[pd]

As long as your ZScript, and the 'TextureMasterRevE.txt' ZScript, are in the same directory, this will work.

Let me know how it goes :)

zscriptinsert works beautifully.

Thanx, guys!
