Visualizing Text?

Post by jdeuel »

Hello-I'm looking for a way to insert a line of text and have it used as a basis for visualizers. I want to be able to project a birthday message during my daughter's party and have it affected (effected?) by the music. Is this something G-Force or Whitecap will do?

Thanks so much.

Jeff

Hello jdeuel

How do I display my own text, images, and movies in G-Force?

Place the image files (e.g., JPG, BMP) and movie files (e.g., QuickTime/MOV, MPEG) that you want displayed into the "Sprites" folder (for Windows, this folder is located in C:\Program Files\SoundSpectrum\G-Force\, and for Mac OS in home/Library/Application Support/SoundSpectrum/G-Force/). Next, restart G-Force (or press SHIFT+U)—this will cause G-Force to rescan all its folders. The files that you added will now automatically be part of the sprite slideshow (and will eventually appear automatically). Images and movie files placed in the "Sprites" folders will take-on the behavior defined in the file "(Default).txt". To learn how to give customize the behavior of your sprites, see "(Default).txt" and the example sprites that come with G-Force. If you're running Windows, G-Force requires QuickTime to load files other than BMPs and JPGs (so if you have file types other than BMP or JPG, then you must install QuickTime in order to see them). You can also do this easily using the Toolbar's Particles, Images, and Video control pane to specify an external "Sprites" folder.
