And try this just for giggles:

select your book in blender and go to the logic properties (purple smiley face).

Make sure you have a string property.

If it says: Name:clickfile

try changing it to: clickfileX
that's a Big X on the end.

Don't ask me. But I couldn't get any of my books to have a hot spot. I took a look at the FuncChk age, and that X was there.
I changed mine, and bingo, all my books gave me a hot spot after that.

I know about the clickfileX, i read one of your posts, and i realized that mine wasnt even exporting it as a clickable without it...I had allready changed that so it wanst a problem, and this is the part of the .elf file that deals with my age:

Uhm....is that the whole log file?

Next questions, might seem stupid to ask, but bare with me here:

Did you put in a logic region around your book?

And did you add the following to your ALCscript?

Code: Select all: nameofyourbook: quickscript: simpleclick: pythonfile: nameofyourpythonfile region: nameoftheregionaroundyourbook

where nameofyourbook is the name of the object that's your book, nameofyourpythonfile is the name of your python file that has the booktemplate in it, and nameoftheregionaroundyourbook is the name of the logic region you put around your book.

If you have not done any of this, it won't work.

by **dah'kree** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 7:21 pm

Yes, I do have a logic region, and it exported it:

Code: Select all: [QuickScript - Simple Clickable] Resulting Code for .logic.modifiers: - tag: AutoClick cursor: poised flags: - localelement activators: - type: objectinvolume remote: genJournalRegion triggers: - any conditions: - type: activator activators: - type: picking - type: objectinbox satisfied: true actions: - type: pythonfile ref: $AutoClick Resulting Code for .logic.actions: - type: pythonfile tag: AutoClick pythonfile: file: tsahvkotsahBookGUI parameters: - type: activator ref: logicmod:$AutoClick - type: string value: GeneratorJournal Quickscripted GeneratorJournal To: {'quickscript': {'simpleclick': {'region': 'genJournalRegion', 'pythonfile': 'tsahvkotsahBookGUI'}}, 'logic': {'modifiers': [{'cursor': 'poised', 'tag': 'AutoClick', 'flags': ['localelement'], 'activators': [{'type': 'objectinvolume', 'remote': 'genJournalRegion', 'triggers': ['any']}], 'conditions': [{'activators': [{'type': 'picking'}], 'type': 'activator'}, {'type': 'objectinbox', 'satisfied': True}], 'actions': [{'type': 'pythonfile', 'ref': '$AutoClick'}]}], 'actions': [{'tag': 'AutoClick', 'type': 'pythonfile', 'pythonfile': {'file': 'tsahvkotsahBookGUI', 'parameters': [{'type': 'activator', 'ref': 'logicmod:$AutoClick'}, {'type': 'string', 'value': 'GeneratorJournal'}]}}]}, 'physical': {'physlogic': 'detect'}}

No it wasnt the entire log file, only about half
Trimmed down log file:

Okay, looks like from the part of the log file you're showing me, Plasma is not seeing your python file.

Another stupid question for you.

Did you take your python file that you made (that has the book template), and did you compile it into a pak file?

The ALCscript points to the python file that is inside the pak file.
The book template file is what the logic property "clickfileX" is suppose to point to.

For example, in my Camp Bravo Age, one of my books, the logic property on it is:

clickfileX = Campbravo_BookGUI

Where Campbravo_BookGUI is actually in my Campbravo.pak

and my ALCscript reads:

Code: Select all: welcomebk: quickscript: simpleclick: pythonfile: Campbravo_BookGUI region: welcomebk_region

EDIT: edited for correctness

by **dah'kree** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 7:50 pm

I did compile it into a pak file, however, what ive read in the tuts, it seemed to me that clickfileX was supposed to be the .py file instead of the .pak, changing that now, and running another test.

by **andylegate** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 8:07 pm

Ooops!

Yep, I just checked my Age in Blender.

the clickfileX needs to point to your BooGUI file.

Once you do that, it should work now.

by **dah'kree** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 8:12 pm

Changed that, ran another test, and still no change, saw your message, changed it back. log says exactly as it said before, and everything else you told me to do was already done.

Inside of my tsahvkotsah.pak file:
tsahvkotsah.py
tsahvkotsahBookGUI.py
tsahvkotsahPageDefs.py
tsahvkotsahJournals.py

by **andylegate** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 8:14 pm

Okay, then the next step is to see your Python files.

Open up your BookGUI python file and paste it here for us to look at.

Might as well go ahead and do the same for the pagedefs file too.

It uses the power of magnetics to turn it\'s inner mechanism unlike the normal forces. (Water, wind, steam, ect.)\n\tThe magnetic force is caused by loadstones that generate a magnetic flow. Normaly this flow is very weak, however, if you put an electrical force through the stones, the flow streagthens 100 fold. Tests provide that the charge lasts for about 2-3 years. Further experimentation is required before I am able to understand fully how these stones work.\n\tThese stones are placed in a variation that makes the flow move in a sideways eight, or infinity symbol, motion, and with the flow, it pulls along stones that are connected to poles that are geared together to turn the generator\'s inner mechanism. The electrical current to increase the magneticism of the stones is provided by a turn crank that is attached to small magnet stones inside of a copper wire coil. Wires extruding from the coil pass through the loadstones.' DefgenJournal02='Operation Guide\n\nThe generator itself is mainly self-efficient, though you have to recharge the loadstones if the flow gets to low. To do so, the process is described in these highly scientific steps:\n\t\t1.) Turn the crank.\n\t\t2.) Step back and let the generator do its thing.\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\tDah\'kree' DefDummy='Dummy.'

Okay, give me a few minutes to look at them.
