[Guide] Customize S2U2 Battery Animation, Slider Button, Animation & Curtain

[syrguy1969]

Thanks :D but the slide button is for man united support...:(

can you put battery together with wallpaper?and can you make a battery red and black with logo AC Milan with usb connection?

I will do the battery-to-wallpaper for you tonight (with USB)!! For the battery being red and black with the logo, do you mean something like this attachment (trimmed a bit of course)?

P.S. I never posted the new arrows!!

Copy Battery Level.mscr to your prefered folder for Mortscript files & create a shortcut to it in the Windows\Startup folder."


So I did all this but on soft reset the device sort of hangs with my ram usage shown at 100% and the S2U2 VU battery charge meter not working but the image of it is there with no needle. I can still get to my file manager to delete the Mortscript shortcut from the Startup folder, then soft reset and back to normal. The original Mortscript file you gave me that I create the shortcut for resides in My Documents folder. Does it need to be somewhere else? Or is there a problem with the file?
Thanx man.

[stopthebus]

Asking any one of the skin guru to turn the attached or something similar into a S2U2 analog clock please.

Thanks

Here is his original post, I wish I could help with this part, but I am no good with scripting...maybe the post can help get it going, or he can chime in with help:

That is almost identical to the Movado...here you go:

(If it isn't close enough for you, your image can be worked with pretty easily though)

Thank you stopthebus for bringing my error to my attention (I am usually very anal about giving credit where due): This clock is one of many posted in another thread by KidGixxer....not sure if he made them, but I AM sure I didn't!!!

Installation:

Assuming Mortscript is installed & S2U2 is installed in \Program Files in main memory.
Copy battery1.png, battery2.png, battery3.png & batteryG.png to \S2U2\GFX
Also copy Battery Level folder (& contents) to \S2U2/GFX
Copy Battery Level_BlackLCD.mscr to your prefered folder for Mortscript files & create a shortcut to it in the Windows\Startup folder.

Hello alanlsmith,
Syrguy1969 made a VU meter battery charger for me using this Mortscript in the attached folder. I have followed all the instructions and the graphics all install but the charging graphics do not work and my Ram usage shows 100% in sort of a hang mode but I can still get to my file manger to delete the mscr from my Startup folder to get things back to normal. Can you look at this and see if the graphics and scripting are correct? Or can you steer me in the right direction?
Thanx in advance.

This is the clock from James's Blue Manilla v1.3 for the Manilla2d skins..
I was wondering if anybody could make it a clock for s2u2, if it's possible to have it stay the original way it, with both the analog clock and digital digits, that would be great.. I've attatched the files from his Manilla2d skins' zipped folder.. Like I said, I'd like to keep it exactly the way it is, but with hands added to the clocks' face.. LoL, much thanks to anyone who can accomplish this task!

The Movado clock is simply delicious! Does anyone have a good black and silver button to go along with it?

I've tried the files from your zip exactly as they are & except for the 'Battery Level' folder being called 'Battery Level2' & so the script couldn't find the images, it ran fine, but obviously didn't change the image, with the correct folder name it worked as expected. I've tried all sort of things to break it, but couldn't, I've tweaked the images a bit & put them back in your zip file, but I don't think they are causing any problems. I have attached a script which will create a log file (in the same folder that the script is in) so that I can check, if you could just put it on your device & run it, then put the contents of the file created 'Mort_Log.txt in to a PM to me.
Oh! one thing that can happen, is if you copy a new (no needle) Battery2 image to the GFX folder & the battery level hasn't changed then there will be no trigger for the script to change the images over, you can get round this by altering the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Local\BatteryLevel, it's this entry that the script compares with the current battery % so if you alter this (or even delete it) it will force the script to update the image.
Sorry I haven't given you a more positive answer.

Hi Bob,how can i get this on my Diamond phone? Battery,Girl,& Weather? THANKS

http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/1458/screen27pt9.png

[alanlsmith]

@kbywg

I saw from the log file you sent me that your device records the battery level as single percentages, whereas the script expects 10% increments, while I don't think this is the cause of any 'hanging' it does mean that the script is doing processing that it doesn't need to, as it's trying to copy across images that don't exist. So I've modified the script to round up (or down) to the nearest 10% to match the available images. (it obviously would be possible to have a 100 different images, one for each percent change, but I think that a bit over the top). Attached script has the same name as original & functions in the same way.
I still haven't figured out what might be causing your problem, as I've tried to re-create it, but with no success, in fact when the device is first booted, if it's not charging then the first part of the script will run, see that it's not on charge, then exit, which should only take a few milliseconds, as the script hardly does anything if the device is not on charge. But the attached, changed script may help...

Well I'm going to sleep now, for the program I use is Photoshop CS2

[nonpointtruth]

Wow, Bob, amazing work! I'm gonna need the files for that blue one as well! Lmao! I've decided to go with two normal thrown together themes for s2u2 and Manilla2d.. And both themes are gonna be based on the blue and red versions of the backgrounds I posted.

[deepthroat]

To those interested :) plus hue-shifted battery to match it.

[FatBoyExtraordinaire]

Bob, you are the man!

[Torakiki76]

I will do the battery-to-wallpaper for you tonight (with USB)!! For the battery being red and black with the logo, do you mean something like this attachment (trimmed a bit of course)?

P.S. I never posted the new arrows!!

syrguy did you forget me??....:(

[Torakiki76]

can somebody make a bigger icons of this please....?

Bob can you help me for this please?

[deepthroat]

can someone please put that battery on this wallpaper and make a slider kinda like the tab button with a padlock on it? thanks guys...

p.s. i searched this thread and couldnt find it... sorry if i missed it

maybe something like this?

EDIT; added mod sliden and arrows

[sinoo]

maybe something like this?

EDIT; added mod sliden and arrows

This clock is awesome!

[deepthroat]

This clock is awesome!

Thanks ...good to see you like it. Difficulties with the analog is that s2u2 places date and day pixels after the clock, so it always interferes with the big battery size. I'm working on to put together the slide unlock with the battery once again for this theme. I'll post them when done.

[Dr4g0n75]

maybe something like this?

EDIT; added mod sliden and arrows

looks good, but is there a way to move the date above the clock? and maybe make the padlock white like the tab in m2d? thanks.. its really close to what i was picturing in my head... haha

thanks a lot syrguy great job....:D

i have to ask you another think..are you able to make bigger icons of attached file please?

[kbywg]

@kbywg

I saw from the log file you sent me that your device records the battery level as single percentages, whereas the script expects 10% increments, while I don't think this is the cause of any 'hanging' it does mean that the script is doing processing that it doesn't need to, as it's trying to copy across images that don't exist. So I've modified the script to round up (or down) to the nearest 10% to match the available images. (it obviously would be possible to have a 100 different images, one for each percent change, but I think that a bit over the top). Attached script has the same name as original & functions in the same way.
I still haven't figured out what might be causing your problem, as I've tried to re-create it, but with no success, in fact when the device is first booted, if it's not charging then the first part of the script will run, see that it's not on charge, then exit, which should only take a few milliseconds, as the script hardly does anything if the device is not on charge. But the attached, changed script may help...

Nothing has changed. Here is the new log file after installing your mods. Does it read any different?

[kbywg]

Just wondering, instead of dealing with this scripting problem, you spoke of an animated battery charger. Would you be able to make the VU meter needle bounce back and forth from say around the point you made 20% to say about 80% while it is charging and at 100% it can just stop at the zero mark where red and black meet? Does this still require Mortcript?

[alanlsmith]

Nothing has changed. Here is the new log file after installing your mods. Does it read any different?

Afraid I still can't see what could be causing the problem, I've added logging to the script I've been running & it is only active for a few milliseconds each time it runs.
As for the animated battery level, I've actually been having a go at this myself, it shows the needle swinging from the left to a position indicating the level of charge & back again, it still has to use a script as the S2U2 battery display doesn't support animated images,
The way it works is in S2U2 Settings you
Set the wallpaper to wallpaper.gif
Set the full screen battery to Off
Put the 'Battery Level Anim' folder in S2U2\GFX\
Put the 'Standby_Wallpaper.gif' image in S2U2\GFX\
Run the script.

There are two versions of the script, one just runs & the other creates a detailed log file in the same folder as the script, this will show when the script starts & exits, as well as what it's doing as a result of the battery level changing, being put on / taken off charge, etc. hopefully this might show whether the script os getting stuck on your device.
The log file will get quite large fairly quickly, so you may not want to run with the logged version for very long.

I'm still fiddling with this, but it seems to work fairly well, except that some times the refreshing of S2U2 is not very neat (I have blanked the screen whilst this is done, but it's not perfect)

Oh! you can use any (static or animated) wallpaper for when it's off charge, it just has to be a .gif & called 'Standby_Wallpaper.gif'

Thank you & Syrguy1969 for the original image.
I hope A_C doesn't feel like this is perverting his excellent program.

http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x99/alanlsmith/80percent.gif

[syrguy1969]

oh and if you could you put a black arrow in the center of this and make it into an arrow but keep its original size id rather have it bigger

This is as close as I could get without changing the size too much...is this what you had in mind?

[syrguy1969]

could someone help me with this clock to get it to work with s2u2

If I can find the post I will edit this one with it, but there was one very close to this done not too long ago!! I do remember the AM/PM didn't fit too well though. Did you have a wallpaper in mind? I remember the original clock fit into a frame that had to be part of the wallpaper.

[syrguy1969]

Just wondering, instead of dealing with this scripting problem, you spoke of an animated battery charger. Would you be able to make the VU meter needle bounce back and forth from say around the point you made 20% to say about 80% while it is charging and at 100% it can just stop at the zero mark where red and black meet? Does this still require Mortcript?

Unfortunatly the only way to get the needle to move would be with the battery animation A_C wrote into it. The scripting is the only way to get anything different. Basically the animation has to be a constant left to right sweep of one image, so the best a needle can do is to gradually appear on the screen, it can't show at different points on the screen without the scripting. I hope that made sense, if not, I can try again.

P.S. I thought you got it working?

[syrguy1969]

thanks a lot syrguy great job....:D

i have to ask you another think..are you able to make bigger icons of attached file please?

Hi JNasty, first of all you must have the battery and slider bar embedded into your wallpaper, then go to setting, change the wallpaper battery charging to "always". It is set to "charging" by default. Cheers ....

It is amazing the problems hidden in PPCs that a hard reset and starting from scratch will solve!! I had a handful of issues I had basically accepted as givens (no MMS, certain sounds gone....) and a hard reset solved them all!!!

Well, with all due respect, it's not actually "transparent.." You can still see some of the outline of the original sliden.png that I modified.. It's actually pretty easy to do using Gimp.. Or you can go back to, what was it, Bob? Post 2005 where I uploaded these files in a .zip folder?


is that as close as it will go to being transparent but still keep the words in there? i'll take at look at post 2005 and maybe i can come up with something that works. thanks guy.

[jchrist]

It's for QVGA device.. I tested a mini batterry that can go with an analog clock and have enough place to display some text under it....

http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2900/test1ri4.png

Bob, any chance of sharing this battery? Thanks.

[alanlsmith]

There were bigger issues with my Touch so I did a hard reset, reinstalled Sprite backup, PHM regedit and S2U2, did a system backup, added the animated battery stuff you guys did but the final one alanlsmith tweaked and it all works great, no ram usage and the rest of the phone is super fast now too.
Thanks again.

Glad that sorted it out, as I said, I had run out of things to look into as far as the script causing the problem.

I have refined the script, as there were some issues with it incorrectly recording the start / finish of charging, something to do with the way Mortscript works when the device is on standby.

The new script should be much more reliable, also it does less file copying & doesn't use a .gif for the 'off charge' wallpaper so S2U2 uses a lot less memory.

If you use this script all you need is the animated images in the 'S2U2\GFX\Battery Level Anim' folder & whatever you want for the off charge wallpaper as a jpeg in the 'S2U2\GFX' folder. (the script changes theS2U2 settings from Wallpaper.jpg to Wallpaper.gif as appropriate.

Of course you can use any images you want for the animated battery, as long as they are named '0percent.gif, 10percent.gif ... 100percent.gif

It also creates a (smallish) log file (in the same folder as the script) which only records when the device is put on / taken off charge & when the battery level changes (on or off charge, which could be useful for monitoring how the battery is performing.)

[syrguy1969]

A_C has stated the skinning of the new version of S2U2 (v1.30) is slightly different than previous versions, and may lead to glitches if you just use an old skin/theme with the new version.

So far the only difference I have found that needs to be changed in the new version are the buttons!!! The old buttons.png is now broken into two different files....easily fixed, but will not work correctly until repaired!!!!

If anyone is using custom-made buttons (mine or others) and can't/don't have time to fix them, please feel free to IM me or post here and I will fix them for you!!!

Nevermind, dumb question.

[syrguy1969]

Another thing in the new version of S2U2 that may clash with the old is that A_C has included a battery image that shows a USB connection when charging (batteryc.png). This file may disrupt a lot of custom batteries while the device is charging, especially full-screen batteries and unique image batteries!!!!

I haven't tried changing the name of it to see if it will work without the file, but a quick fix is to copy and rename battery1 to batteryc (saving the original). A more enjoyable fix would be to create a custom batteryc to fit your current battery theme (if it can)!!!

Again...if anyone needs help with it, just let us know!!! :-)

Hey guys I just made my own slideranis.png and tried to make black ravenfeathers fly from the left to the right I think it looks quite nice but it won't show on my s2u2...I have the newest 1.30 and when I copy it to the gfx folder it doesnt change anything...I made all the other stuff transparent so only the feathers will fly from the left to the right and I did everything after the tutorial from the first page...The only difference is, that my frames are in png format too rather than bmp but I don't think that changes anything...
I attached the file.
Hope you guys can help me thx!

If I remember correct, you need to delete/rename sliden.png for the animation to fully show.

...just wondering, when the device is finished charging,(at100%) which .png file is used to show full charge? Right now the phone shows full charge but the battery animation shows bouncing needle from 0% to 100%.

...just wondering, when the device is finished charging,(at100%) which .png file is used to show full charge? Right now the phone shows full charge but the battery animation shows bouncing needle from 0% to 100%.

I am not sure if the scripting backs up my idea on this, but I think if you have battery animation checked at 'always' in the settings it should show the % image indicated by the script. It sounds like the battery is only showing while charging so when you unplug the wallpaper shows instead of battery.

(alanlsmith) may be able to verify/deny my idea!

[alanlsmith]

...just wondering, when the device is finished charging,(at100%) which .png file is used to show full charge? Right now the phone shows full charge but the battery animation shows bouncing needle from 0% to 100%.

Yes...not very realistic I'm afraid! it's '100percent.gif', I did it that way because most devices (well the ones that only report in 10% increments) will stay on 100% for quite a while whilst still actually charging, I could change the last animation to kind of quiver around full if that would look better.

Edit: Just seen the post by Syrguy1969, To clarify, the animation will show all the time that the mains charger is connected, regardless of whether it's fully charged. I don't think that there is anything that can be done with MortScript to detect when the charge is actually complete.
Also the script bypasses the Battery settings in S2U2 (in fact it sets 'Full screen battery' to 'No')

[kbywg]

I could change the last animation to kind of quiver around full if that would look better.

That'd be great because then if I see it's not bouncing down to zero and back up again I'll know it's fully charged (or close as you said).
I love this setup as only a sound guy could. Still no donate link there alanlsmith.

Anyone knows how to get rid of the semitransparent bar on the top (where the carrier's name, system status are)? i am not saying the "top bar" (which I know can be toggled in the settings), I am saying the shaded semi-transparent VERY top bar in the screen (the only shaded area) - check out the screenshot below.

I searched the gfx file and it seems that no file is responsible for it or I just overlooked? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!!!

[deepthroat]

Hey nice picture you have there, can you share please? well I dont know whether we can remove the 'very top bar completely', it is somehow handled by the exe, anyone knows? we may delete the system.png but I think the cell provider's name will still be there.

Here's a reasonable 'quivering' needle, I tried to make it so the movement looks fairly random.
Just replace the 100percent.gif in the 'GFX\Battery Level Anim folder'
(also if the phone is already at 100% and charging then the new image won't show until the phone is taken off charge, left for, say 20 seconds, then put back on charge.)

I want the system icons to remain. I just want to remove the curtain to make that part totally transparent. Yeah, seems like it's not the png that is responsible for it.

Yeah, very lovely picture. It's from Renoir. The title of the work is Luncheon of the Boating Party. I always love impressionist. Glad you also like it.

Hey thanx it worked but now I have a new problem!
So I can see my animation now but it is very small...
How can I make it that it takes the whole size of everything the slider and all the stuff because I don't want that!
Is it possible to have a animation over othe whole bottom area?
thanx in advance alex

Hi Bob_55

Is it your intention to make the battery 'tube' looks 'bended'? Cos' it sure gives me the optical illussion. :-) To make it look straight, I think you only need to show one side of the inner part of the metal head/cab.

Just an idea. :-)

I installed the 1.30 version last night, and the battery graphics are different. Now all of the work that I did a couple weeks ago is worthless and I have to start over. I tried just splicing the old graphics, but ended up with it being shifted 25% to the left. A_C added the USB plug to the old green battery, but it is a 4th graphic to the right of the battery, and it's oddly off set. I have no idea how to do a full screen battery for the new version. HELP!!!

I've included my already edited graphics and the ROYAL blue Manilla 2D wallpaper if someone could please turn this into a full screen
