1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,820 In this series, you'll create a slide show. 2 00:00:03,143 --> 00:00:07,860 It's really a conversation system that's simple and linear. 3 00:00:07,890 --> 00:00:11,214 It's a project to prepare you to the branching dialogue system 4 00:00:11,215 --> 00:00:14,243 we'll make in the next chapter. 5 00:00:14,244 --> 00:00:15,243 As you can see see, 6 00:00:15,244 --> 00:00:18,354 you'll have dialogue lines with animated text, 7 00:00:18,355 --> 00:00:20,300 pictures that go with the text, 8 00:00:20,301 --> 00:00:24,180 and the ability to move forward through the slides. 9 00:00:24,181 --> 00:00:25,371 We call it a slide show, 10 00:00:25,372 --> 00:00:28,940 because really the principle behind a dialogue system, 11 00:00:28,970 --> 00:00:34,300 as you see in Japanese RPGs or some slides is very similar. 12 00:00:34,301 --> 00:00:36,600 There are not so many differences in the code, 13 00:00:37,071 --> 00:00:41,229 and we want to get that idea across. 14 00:00:41,450 --> 00:00:44,460 We're going to make it into two stages. 15 00:00:44,490 --> 00:00:49,314 First, we'll just display the text and have a next button to flip through it. 16 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,500 This is just to simplify setting up the interface 17 00:00:53,929 --> 00:00:57,343 and get started with the bulk of the code, 18 00:00:57,344 --> 00:01:02,980 which is about reading from dictionaries and flipping through the slides. 19 00:01:03,010 --> 00:01:06,514 Then we'll improve the visuals in the second part, 20 00:01:06,571 --> 00:01:08,413 where we'll add a picture, 21 00:01:08,414 --> 00:01:11,657 and we'll add some more information to our dictionaries 22 00:01:11,658 --> 00:01:14,157 and look at tween animation, 23 00:01:14,158 --> 00:01:18,100 which is animation handled by the computer, 24 00:01:18,101 --> 00:01:20,850 which you can produce via code. 25 00:01:20,851 --> 00:01:23,570 With that, we'll get started in the next part. 26 00:01:23,571 --> 00:01:24,486 See you there.
