Title: Wheel Menu (PC)
Post by: Altamurenza on August 31, 2022, 11:45:42 AM
WHEEL MENU
BY: ALTAMURENZA


"It's time to modernize this game mechanics."

Wheel Menu is a mechanism to 'do' something by selecting an option from the menu which looks like a wheel. There are many triple-A games who implemented this feature like GTA V, RDR 2, Mafia III, Watch Dogs: Legion, Far Cry 6, etc. This modification will allows you to use the wheel menu mechanics in Bully: Scholarship Edition (PC).

This modification is designed to be a mixture of newest game mechanics and classic game designs. I used the iconic yellow color, arial font, and rectangular texture to make this mod looks fit with the base game design. It also provides you many customizable and configurable things just in case we don't have the same preferences here.

- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -

Does it have controller support? (V1.4 or lower version)
Yes! Change 'use_controller false' to 'use_controller true' in the configuration.ini provided by the mod.
Instead of using custom activation key, controller users have to use Look Back (L3) to show/hide the wheel.

What kind of things are customizable and configurable?
You definitely can edit all texture components and icons used by the mod.
Also, there are many options in 'configuration.ini' to adjust like keys, colors, transparencies, etc.

Why do we need Derpy's Script Loader to be installed?
DSL is providing many cool features, drawing texture on the screen is one of them.
This mod Graphical User Interface (GUI) cannot be done without that.


- CLOSING STATEMENT -

Shout out to derpy54320 (https://twitter.com/derpy54320) for her amazing Derpy's Script Loader mod! Without it, this mod is nothing more than a daydream. Also, maybe this mod is the first one released to public which requires DSL, so i hope people can help her to complete the DSL as soon as possible by cheering her up in anyway.

Support me to keep making mods by not reuploading or redistributing this mod to somewhere else.

Oh dang, this looks really nice. Would have been great to have this in the base game rather than having to scroll through items one by one.

Great mod, although it will crash if you start a dodgeball game with this mod installed, mine does when I start GYM 2  :(

I tested it myself and I found out that DSL caused a crash in dodgeball minigame.
In other words, it has nothing to do with the wheel menu mod.

Thanks for the report, I already forwarded the issue to the mod author.

Hey Altamurenza! Amazing mod, the idea to be able to remove accessories is great. I'm trying to use it, so I've been doing some tests. I have ran into a few issues and I also have some suggestions, if you don't mind!

Issues:


These issues can be checked out on this video (which is also attached to this comment): https://streamable.com/ox0718 (https://streamable.com/ox0718)

Suggestions for settings in configuration.ini:


Being able to change between an inner shirt (such as a T-shirt, long sleeved shirt) and outer clothing (such as a hoodie), instead of just the tank-top, would be great, but I know this is probably way out of scope :P Thanks for the mod btw!

Thanks for the report, to be honest, I rarely use a gamepad in my gameplay because for some reason my condition makes me easier to use keyboard and mouse instead of controller. So, I'm sorry if I didn't pay much attention to gamepad users like you, I'll update the mod to be more friendly for gamepad users.

  • Super Spud Gun is transparent and has a white square as icon image.
Sometimes I experienced the transparent super spud gun too even without any mod installed, I'll trace it further later. But, the white square icon is pure R* fault because there's no icon file for the super spud gun in "../Bully - Scholarship Edition/TXD/HUDElems.nft" and the game will show a temporary icon (white square).

To remove the modded weapons:
1. Open "../_derpy_script_loader_/scripts/Wheel Menu/item.lua" with Notepad.
2. Delete GROUP_01_REGISTER('GUN', 396, nil, nil, 'SSG', true).
3. Delete GROUP_01_REGISTER('OTHER', 420, nil, nil, 'FL', true).
4. Save and close the file.

  • Trying to take one hand accessory off will take the other hand accessory off instead. Trying to put it back on or take it off again has no effect. If a hand accessory is already off and you try to take it off, it will take the other accessory off instead. Trying to put it back on will work only the first time.
  • Sometimes, when selecting a Hand accessory option, the Wheel Menu closes and then it never opens again and it also disables the standard way of selecting weapons ingame (previous weapon and next weapon buttons).
It seems like I made a mistake by setting 'none' to the other hand slot which cause a conflict between functions in the script. Does DSL console tell you anything about an error? The error notification would be really helpful to track the issue.

Being able to change between an inner shirt (such as a T-shirt, long sleeved shirt) and outer clothing (such as a hoodie), instead of just the tank-top, would be great.
You can change the Tank Top to any clothing you want by editing the item.lua. Find GROUP_02_REGISTER('TORSO', nil, 'P_SSleeves11') and replace 'P_SSleeves11' to 'P_SSleeves3' (White T-Shirt) or 'R_Jacket1' (Tuxedo Jacket perhaps if you're psychopath wearing Tuxedo under your School Uniform).

Or.. if you want to add a new clothing layer to the Wheel Menu, you can just add GROUP_02_REGISTER('TORSO', nil, 'P_SSleeves3') below GROUP_02_REGISTER('TORSO', nil, 'P_SSleeves11') so you can switch between layers easily.

NOTE: "P_SSleeves11", "P_SSleeves3", and "R_Jacket1" are the model name of clothing which can be found in World.img.
