Description Update: Now that I have finished all of the flele coding tutorials, I will now be making only revisions and finishing up my own. I doubt I will have the time to re-code your entire flele anymore unless I'm really interested.

If you see any mistakes in my tutorial, then please notify me at once so that I may fix it.

Other flele resources:
Descript.txt Tutorial: [link]
Flele Buttons Tutorial: [link]
Flele shell base: [link] [warning, it's kind of BS]
Surfaces.txt tutorial pt.1: [link]
Surfaces.txt tutorial pt.2: [link]

I made this assuming rannsama's tutorial was not read. Found here: [link]

NOV. 22, 2010
REVISION: No you can't add extra buttons. They've only coded for 2 stops in the 01.dic file (the one that actually codes for the entire program called a FLELE) It's a real hassle to code in more. So you can only have 2 or less stop buttons.

------------------------
What is a flele?
-A flele is a little music player that "sings" along with the song you play

Where can I get one?
-[link]
Get the miku pack

How do I get different characters to sing?
You download a shell for the flele. This tut teaches you how to make your own shell (Kinda).

Help! Why doesn't it work on my mac?
-Currently, the flele can only work on a pc or linux.
-------------------------
Misc. Info
Flele uses Unicode (Shift_JIS)
The shell is coded in ANSI
-it plays WMV and mp3
-it cannot read files with odd characters
--------------------------
FAQ
What if I want more than one button for a feature?
-I'm pretty sure you can add a number to the end of it and have it work.

What if I don't want the second stop button or the stroke feature?
-Just delete those lines of code or make their coordinates 0,0,0,0

Do you know any other way to get the coordinates?
-I only know PS, if you have some other way then please tell me so I can include it.
------------------------------------
If you have a question then I'll try to answer it as best I can.

PS I'D LOVE TO SEE YOUR FLELE IF YOU DO MAKE IT

Great tutorial!!
Do you still have a spot open for coding a flele? XDD;;; I do want to try coding my own sometime too (using your lovely tut ) but if you still have an open spot that'd be awesome >u>;
I don't have any images already for a flele, and it may take me a little while to make them (I'm a slow drawer XD) but if you wouldn't mind waiting.. ;A;
Thanks either way; your tutorial is very helpful!!

Yeah, sure. XD I still need to make sure all my assumptions are right before I make the last tutorial. Just email it to firethrought@gmail.com when you're done drawing.

It's no problem. X) I should include how to name/create the files in my next tut shouldn't I?

Well, anyways, I'm really glade you didn't merge layers with the "transparent" background. Unless you absolutely know you don't have any semi-transparent pixels, I wouldn't suggest using it. You get unwanted green dots. D:

Merret In reply to Extrics [2010-10-24 17:38:39 +0000 UTC]

Ooo yes, that'd be very helpful

D: I'm glad I didn't too, then
Anyway, I hope I didn't create any problems for you with the way I have my layers set up or anything! I really have no idea as far as what flele shells look like in their pieces XD

Extrics In reply to Merret [2010-10-24 21:46:47 +0000 UTC]

Okay, you need to make sure you have zero semi-transparent pixels. That means that you need to turn the rectangular marque tool and make a copy of the original (only what the eyes/mouth) should cover. Then you draw on top of that. Second, if you do the singing frames then make sure they go in order. It's easier to program that way. There's no problem with going out of order but...

That's all I can think of. There's really not a lot that you can do wrong with just images XD

Merret In reply to Extrics [2010-10-26 19:49:02 +0000 UTC]

Alright! That's easy enough, I think.. xD Are you telling me this just for future reference, or are these things I have to go back and fix with the images I sent you? xD;;;

Extrics In reply to Merret [2010-10-26 20:21:45 +0000 UTC]

For future reference I already fixed it.

Oh dear. You should at least know some of it XD

I've looked at your other layers. I'm not sure how many problems will come up but I'll be giving you a list of things that would make making fleles easier.

Oh. Kasjkfhsg yesss, I was kind of looking for one of these to no avail ; v ;

AND. I would totally ask if you could code a flele for me but.. I don't have anything prepared OTL
Thank yooouuu for the tutorial though c':

Extrics In reply to midnightxdivinity [2010-09-28 04:22:46 +0000 UTC]

Well, I figured XD I couldn't find one either when i first started out. Coding isn't hard but it's nice to have a few pointers along the way.

Well, I doubt very may people read my comments XD So you can ask to get a spot reserved until you make it. I only have 3 others who've asked for it and those were my friends XD

midnightxdivinity In reply to Extrics [2010-09-28 22:37:49 +0000 UTC]

YES exactly. There are always more tutorials for the simpler things ;w;

Fff, I always read the artist comments O A O
Er, then may I reserve a spot? That would be nice T U T

Extrics In reply to midnightxdivinity [2010-09-29 03:04:26 +0000 UTC]

Why yes you can. XD That bumps it up to 4 people XD Just tell me when you're ready on dA and then Email it to me.
