Telescope in 3dsMax

[wodan944]

Hi,

With help from Team H'Uru I've build a Telescope like the one in the Spyroom in my new age, all the animations are working (grab, hold and release).
It uses the Python file: xtelescope and it needs the multibehaviour compound.
But now the problem, I want to have a picture that shows up when the Avatar grabs and hold the handles like the Telescopes in Uru.
I understand that its has to do with the GUIdialogtoggle python file but its seems to me that it should have a different approach then making a simple picture on a desk that pop up.
Does anybody know how to make such a appearing picture? It has to do also with Fixed Camera and probally some other unknown (to me) python file when I build one it gives a strange effect, its shows the transition from the Avatar camera, very strange.
So, maybe someone has a suggestion? I'am willing to upload the file with the working animations and their settings so far for anyone who is interested!

Hi,

Problem solved.
Made a extra camera region in front of the Telescope, placed a fixed camera a way back, so that you see the back of the avatar when its clicking the scope.
When the Avatar now grabs the handles and actually looks through the Telescope, you now see the picture or in my case a piece of my new world.
When you leave this scene by clicking left or right in the screen, that fixed camera will take over instead of the Avatar Camera and THEN the Avi Camera takes over when you walk away from the scope.
Thats the way I think cyan made this in the Spyroom and also for the rest of the telescopes in Uru.
My offer still stands, regarding the telescope building and the Multistage behaviour, you can always give me a PN.
