::CreaTive DesiGn'S:: 0100 - MeKhanicHUD Expressions AddOn Version 1.0

★★★★★ EXPRESSIONS/EMOTE ADDON ★★★★★

The 'Expressions AddOn' it's an addon to be used by 'The MeKhanic HUD' OR you can use it in your hud like an 'Standalone'* addon!

The MeKhanic HUD: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/CreaTive-DesiGnS-0091-The-MeKhanic-HUD/6389799

The package has a script to include on the hud and a script to include on the object (ex: mesh head)!

↯! Buying this AddOn you agree with all the Description of the product! No refund after purchasing the product! So, please read all the description carefully and make sure that this AddOn is the right 'tool' you need !↯

▶ HOW IT WORKS
The 'Expressions AddOn' is to be used in mesh objects (ex: mesh heads)!
Your object (ex: mesh head) needs to have several parts linked together!

▶ EXAMPLE FOR A MESH HEAD
Let's say you have a mesh head + eyes prims (open eyes prim, close eyes prim, winking eyes prim) + mouth prims (smiling mouth prim, showing tongue mouth prim, closed mouth prim), etc...
Notice that you need to have a prim for each expression!

Example (that you need to include in your mesh head):
→ Several eyes parts (each eye expression in a prim)
→ Several mouth parts (each mouth expression in a prim)
→ Etc...

↯! This AddOn does NOT produce eyes blinking effect !↯

↯! This AddOn does NOT make expressions itself in your objects! You need to have/create your several mesh parts in your object !↯

When you click on a expression button on the HUD it will hide all parts/prims of that expression (ex: eyes prims) on the mesh head and makes visible the prim you selected on the button hud!

Example: If you click on the 'eyes=2' button on the hud all the 'eyes' prims will be invisible on the mesh head, and will turn visible the 'eyes=2' prim only!

▶ *USING THIS ADDON AS AN STANDALONE USAGE
You can use this AddOn as an Standalone usage (without 'The MeKhanic HUD'), but you need to consider some important aspects:
→ You need to include the AddOn script into your HUD contents - root prim
→ You need to include the AddOn Receiver script into your object (ex: mesh head) - root prim
→ Each expression button prim for the hud needs to be setup by using it's Name and Description fields of that button/prim
→ You need to use a root prim (your prim) on the HUD and a root prim (your prim) on your Object(s) (ex: mesh head)! The root prim on the Object (ex: mesh head) should be invisible and you cannot apply any changes on it, it will only work has a 'receiver'!
→ Each expression part/prim in your object (ex: mesh object) needs to be setup by using it's Description field of that prim
→ Each expression button/prim will response according the face number of the button that was clicked on

▶ FEATURES
✔ It Hides All Parts (ex: eyes prims) on your object (ex: mesh head) and it shows only the part you want
Note: 'It Hides' means 100% transparency for each prim
✔ When showing a part (ex: eyes=1) the script will show all faces of that prim (0% transparency) but you can setup that prim to not show some faces numbers (you can hide some faces)
✔ You can add one 'Expressions Remove' button (it will show only the parts you want (ex: eyes=1 + mouth=2)
✔ You can use Multiface buttons prims on the HUD (each face will show a certain part on the mesh head)
Examples:
→ If you click on the Face 0 of the button prim it will show eyes=1 part
→ If you click on the Face 1 of the button prim it will show eyes=2 part
→ Etc...
✔ You can choose a Channel Number at your own will (to communicate between the HUD and the object/mesh head)
✔ You can choose a Color for the Active Expression(s) for the HUD prim(s) button(s)
✔ You can add a Texture UUID (frame texture) for the Active Expression(s) for the HUD prim(s) button(s)
✔ Scripts will Work on No-Scripts Lands Allowed

Note: Despite the name 'Expressions', you can use this AddOn in any object in the same circumstances (it hides all prims of a part and only show the part you want)! Mesh Head is only the most common example for this AddOn application!
