DEVELOPERS: (mod info) WM_COPYDATA command interface

[Mincus]

There's a message for the character screen that you'll get.
That any use?

[Lavos^]

No. I need the ash file that gets loaded, it's based on per-song.

[Mincus]

Could cache all the ash files beforehand. They're not exactly big.

That is just load them into a chunk of RAM, don't process them until you get the song name.
Would that give you enough time?

[Lavos^]

No, because it's not the ash files. It's a file that gets created before for each song.

Is there a way I can use this with mIRC scripting? (I will download a premade DLL if necessary)

[ViRUS]

new commands would be awesome

Ideas?

I'd like the ability to control everything from outside the game, like ironmode and other options (which currently require a restart).
Having an ash generation routine without having to actually play the track would be a nice-to-have, along with something that passes over mini-track shape info (like that provided by game_fetchtrackshape2.php).

But I'd prefer the texture re-loading memory leak (see http://www.audio-surf.com/forum/index.php/topic,4869.0.html) and the minimise bug (more prevalent in Vista) fixed first as they hamper development and the flow between Audiosurf and Add-ons.

Edit: Ability to get the radio song info and tell Audiosurf to play them would be useful as well.

I feel like I've been put on the backburner here.

Me want separate commands for Visualizer and Classic Freeride!

A fix to the texture reload memory leak would be nice, would aid making graphics mods without a million restarts

Do you mean "has someone made a mod which can show the current song being played in AudioSurf?"

[S4ph1r]

I knocked up a small class in C# (and a VB.NET example as well if you want it) and posted it here: http://www.audio-surf.com/forum/index.php/topic,5347.msg55490.html#msg55490

It shows how to communicate with Audiosurf from C#/VB.NET.
Retrieving things back is a simple case of over-riding the WndProc function of your form and picking up WM_COPYDATA messages.
The commands etc are all explained by Dylan in the first post of this thread.
Good luck.
