A couple of tests

I just did a couple of quick tests and thought the results looked cool.

A badly aged and crumpled piece of paper makes a nice bump map:

Streaming a movie onto a sphere (tried it first with the sample Mac vs. PC ad - nice funhouse mirror effect)

Would you be willing to post some contents of the scripts which determine the stats ?

like the script which tells which gfx card is in the pc ? The one which tells about the system.

Also. What is that TEXT TO SPEECH doing there ?



kind regards,

The pause menu is already on the wiki:

Originally, I wanted to have controls for all the individual Quality settings in the menu instead of just the Quality slider, but only the newer settings are exposed in Javascript (at least in the doc)

Text-to-speech is something new, and not in the wiki, but it's pretty simple (no plugin), just some convenience functions for calling the MacOSX /usr/bin/say command (if you haven't seen it, just type "say anything" in a Terminal window)

I used the .Net Process class to run the say command, there mentions in the forum, I believe, and I used this wiki script to get started:

That's not going to work in the browser, but for widgets, I use a combination of Application.ExternalEval with widget.system to run the say command. I found lengthy doc on setting up widget.system in the Apple reference doc via XCode, and one thing to watch out for is you need to set the AllowSystem key in info.plist to true. I tried out text-to-speech in my typing widget:

so you can inspect that if you're doing widgets. I just discovered it behaves terribly on my old Mac Mini, which is why I added the option to turn it off (just a flag that disables my convenience functions)

 

actually yes

Thanks
