How Do We Add Apps To The "More" Tab In XM8?

[[ReSpec] Hunter 2]

Hey guys!

    Another day, another server coding error that you hate; anyways! I need some help finding out how to add the apps to the "More" tab for the XM8 a little more in-depth. I've searched the forums and seen a few posts on how to do this; but its all very complex. So I would like to create a base here that is more simple from the people who have found it out if any so far =) So if you found an easy way to add those darn apps to that More section, please, let me know below!

Thank you much,

Hunter

@Janski care to share? I wasnt able to quite figure it out but i have been studying what you have released in your pack. Even then i dont fully get what you have done as i never really looked into something like this. I too would like to know 

I second this statement, I saw the post by @Janski but I wasn't able to figure out how to specifically piece it all together with my server not wanting to boot up at all =) Alas! Best to always ask the community as it is a collective of information so together we ought to be able to find a specific way to add outside apps to the more tab.

Hi,

So what I've done is pretty simple, we can divide it into 4 different stages

• Execute code upon connection
• Overwriting Exile functions 
• Add CfgXM8 in the missionConfigFile 
• Create Apps

*I'll comment the code

 - First I prepare the App related functions and variables with automatic function that is executed upon client connect.

Spoiler

/*Read the configuration file*/
_path = "ExAdClient\XM8\customize.sqf";
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers _path;

/*For each wanted app, prepare functions and app related configuration*/
{
	/*Check if onOpen function is provided and if so, prepare compile and read it to memory*/
	if(isText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "onOpen"))then{
		_code = compileFinal (preprocessFileLineNumbers getText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "onOpen"));                    
		missionNamespace setVariable [format["ExileClient_gui_xm8_slide_%1_onOpen",_x], _code];
	};
	
	/*Check if onClose function is provided and if so, prepare compile and read it to memory*/
	if(isText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "onClose"))then{
		_code = compileFinal (preprocessFileLineNumbers getText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "onClose"));                    
		missionNamespace setVariable [format["ExileClient_gui_xm8_slide_%1_onClose",_x], _code];
	};
	
	/*Check if a configuration file is provided. If so, prepare compile and read it to memory*/
	if(isText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "config"))then{
		call compileFinal (preprocessFileLineNumbers getText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "config"));
	};
}forEach (getArray(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> "extraApps"));

 

 - Then I overwrite 2 Exile functions 

• "ExileClient_gui_xm8_show.sqf"
  Spoiler

  
  //Part of ExileClient_gui_xm8_show function 
  
  
  //Add configured controls and add them to "More"
  call ExAd_fnc_createExtraApps;
  call ExAd_fnc_addApps;
  {
  	_slideControlID = getNumber (_x >> "controlID");
  	_slideName = configName _x;
  	_slideTitle = getText (_x >> "title");
  	_slideControl = _display displayCtrl _slideControlID;
  	if (_slideName isEqualTo ExileClientXM8CurrentSlide) then
  	{
  		_titleControl = _display displayCtrl 4004;
  		_titleControl ctrlSetStructuredText (parseText (format ["<t align='center' font='RobotoMedium'>%1</t>", _slideTitle]));
  		_slideControl ctrlSetPosition [(0 * 0.05), (0 * 0.05)];
  		_slideControl ctrlCommit 0;
  		_slideControl ctrlShow true;
  		_toSlideOpenFunction = missionNamespace getVariable [format ["ExileClient_gui_xm8_slide_%1_onOpen", _slideName], ""];
  		if !(_toSlideOpenFunction isEqualTo "") then
  		{
  			call _toSlideOpenFunction;
  		};
  	}
  	else 
  	{
  		_slideControl ctrlShow false;
  	};
  }
  /*("true" configClasses (missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8")) will allow the new classes from the missionConfigFile to also be prepared for the XM8*/
  forEach (("true" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgXM8")) + ("true" configClasses (missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8")));
  

   

  
  Added 2 functions
  • Add all new extra controllers to the XM8 dialog and hide them

    private["_apps","_display"];
    
    _apps = getArray(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> "extraApps");

    {
    	call compile format["ExAd_XM8_MAP_%1 = [];",_x];
    	
    	if(isClass(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x))then{
    		_idc = getNumber(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "controlID");
    		_slide = _display ctrlCreate ["RscExileXM8Slide",_idc, _display displayCtrl 4007];
    		[_display, _slide, _idc]call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers getText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "onLoad");
    		_slide ctrlShow false;
    	}	
    }forEach _apps;
    
    true

     

     

  • Add the title and an eventHandler to each new more apps button

    _count = 10;
    _count2 = 5000;
    _title = "ExAd";
    
    /*Find where to begin adding new apps in the button grid*/
    while {_title != ""} do 
    {
    	_count = _count + 1;
    	_count2 = _count2 + 1;
    	_count = if(_count > 15)then{
    		if(_count > 25)then{
    			if(_count < 31)then{31}else{_count}
    		}else{
    			if(_count < 21)then{21}else{_count}

    	}else{

    	};
    	_title = getText(configFile >> "RscExileXM8" >> "Controls" >> "Slides" >> "Controls" >>"SlideExtraApps" >> "Controls" >> format["App%1", _count] >> "text");
    };
    
    _display = uiNameSpace getVariable ["RscExileXM8", displayNull];
    
    /*Add title and click eventHandler for the new app*/
    {
    	private["_ctrl"];

    	_ctrl ctrlSetText getText(missionConfigFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _x >> "title");
    	_ctrl ctrlSetEventHandler ["ButtonClick", format["['%1', 0] call ExileClient_gui_xm8_slide",_x]];
    	
    	_count2 = _count2 + 1;
    }forEach _apps;
    
    true

     

     

• ExileClient_gui_xm8_slide.sqf
  Just added the possibility for the script to check the missionConfigFile if it couldn't find the right instructions in the configFile.
  Spoiler

  
  //Manipulate the source of config data
  _src = if(isClass(configFile >> "CfgXM8" >> _toSlideName))then{configFile}else{missionConfigFile};
  _toSlideControlID = getNumber (_src >> "CfgXM8" >> _toSlideName >> "controlID");

   

   

 - Add CfgXM8 in the missionConfigFile 

This class will allow you to add new app instructions for the engine to find and use. The class also implements some new properties to add extra functionality to my script. 

Spoiler

class CfgXM8
{
	extraApps[] = {"ExAd_VG","ExAd_Info"};
	
	class ExAd_VG 
	{
		title = "Virtual Garage";
		controlID = 50000;					//IDC:50000 -> 50014 || These need to be unique
		onLoad = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\VG\onLoad.sqf";
		onOpen = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\VG\onOpen.sqf";
		onClose = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\VG\onClose.sqf";
	};	
	class ExAd_Info 
	{
		title = "Server Info";
		controlID = 50100;					//IDC:50100 -> 50101 || These need to be unique
		onLoad = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\Info\onLoad.sqf";
		onOpen = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\Info\onOpen.sqf";
		onClose = "ExAdClient\XM8\Apps\Info\onClose.sqf";
	};
};

 

 - Create Apps

You create and app in 4 steps 

1. Create onLoad instruction so the engine will know what controllers to create to the XM8 dialog 
2. Create onOpen and onClose, if necessary, to give instruction on what should happen when the slide is activated/deactivated
3. Add the new app class to the CfgXM8 class  and instruct the script where it can find proper code to prepare 
4. Add the new app class to the extraApps array  in the CfgXM8 class so the engine will know that it should prepare the app for the XM8

Thank you for the very thorough explanation =) Okay, so basically; I would follow the normal setup for the application as it is described to be in docs for the XM8, then afterwards, just create an onLoad instruction and onOpen and onClose function so that it runs for that specific app in that specific slot, and then I just add into at the bottom of config.cpp and connect the class to what has been defined in one of those onLoad files inside of Apps\(Appname)\onLoad?

 

Better question: How do I edit those onLoad, onOpen, and onClose to work with a mod such as if I used a script for Advanced Server Info? Is there something specifically I just drag over from that code to run into the onLoad and then onOpen and onClose just leave it mostly as it is with minor changes to what it says to you?

When I open the XM8, it shows the message right away, the app "Server Info" shows up in more but when I click into it there is nothing in it at all that allows me to click out. How would I code this so that there is a primary button that says something like "Server Info" that you can press and then have another "Go Back" or "Close" button under it?

 

Thanks =)

My onClose:

if (ExileClientXM8CurrentSlide == "ExAd_Info") then {
    ExileClientXM8CurrentSlide = "apps";
};
ExAdCurFlagNetId = nil;

 

When I open the XM8, it shows the message right away, the app "Server Info" shows up in more but when I click into it there is nothing in it at all that allows me to click out. How would I code this so that there is a primary button that says something like "Server Info" that you can press and then have another "Go Back" or "Close" button under it?

 

Thanks =)

If you go into the Dev branch of ExAd there is a server info app

I have been trying to add XM8 apps to Exile 1.0.4 and the XM8 config in config.cpp looks different. I can't find an explanation from the included (More...) examples to place and load the onload.sqf, onopen.sqf and onClose.sqf files. Is there a Wiki or video on the new method or am I just missing a readme?
