Yuki Bashing It Out Anonymous
OK, started working on this tonight. Got this part done so far. I am about to add the rapidly opening and closing windows to it with scrolling codes.

It is 13 frames, does /w/ think that's enough? I may increase that depending on how the windows thing works out. Also, would anyone like alternate sizes? This is 1280 x 1024, my current desktop size.
>> Not Chii
That particular animation is 13 frames, but I'd wager you'd have to recycle that several times to get a decent open/close animation of the windows, depending how many you are aiming for.

The straight 640 x 360 frame capture I made was itself around 1.8 megs when giffed in ImageReady, so I shrank it since I'd like the end result to be around a megabyte if possible. There are about 120 frames to the whole scene, it would be cool if I could use them all, but I am hand-scrubbing the hardsubs off them so it is tedious work. I may use a few more.

It's already at 700kb with just 13 frames--how many frames overall do you expect with the windows?

>>426452
looks like another 500K or so. here is the first test window which added about 90K. I am going to cycle 6 of them

This is C code. I think Yuki would like C, although those computer society drones probably used Visual Basic.

XP can't do it with the built-in stuff, but software like Screensaver Factory can. http://www.blumentals.net/scrfactory/whatsnew.php - cost $ tho, maybe there is a free solution somewhere

I would like to do this as a proper screensaver, with the Yuki loop much longer, and configurable popping windows that you can customize the code in. I will look into that.

I hope I'm not late to respond to this...

Dreamscene will play videos, but not gifs. Gifs got the shaft in Vista in a lot of ways. The default image viewer for Vista( the upgrade from the lightweight fax and image preview program) doesn't support gifs, and tends to incorporate a lot of light photography functions. Also, stuff like "actual size" is harder to hit with hotkeys( in XP it was ctrl+a for actual size, ctrl+b for best fit, in Vista it's something like ctrl+0 or ctrl+alt+0)

Anyway, Dreamscene will let you play videos, which might actually circumvent your need for GIF functionality, but it won't actually handle GIFs.

Kind of a shame.

I am currently tinkering with a more interactive active desktop thing in HTML you could install locally on your machine and customize the code windows on. I don't know how to make screen savers so I don't think I will be able to make one. Unless there are screen savers out there that will display an HTML page with lots of javascript loops running in it.

i know how to make them (slightly badly as it uses VB6, but they do work well and most people won't notice any difference). perhaps someone could give me some specification to work with? (as, amazingly, i may actually have some time over the next couple of weeks to do this).

Big GIFs sometimes bog down in display loop processes, I have seen them get stuck on the last frame like you say before looping again. I don't see this happening but I am looking at my work on decent hardware. Maybe this is the problem?

I studied the whole Day of Sagittarius sequence I am referencing here frame by frame the last few days and in some of the shots with an angled view of yuki's laptop screen they have the windows opening elastically - on the first frame, the window is squashed vertically about 50%, then in the next frame it is full size. the result is a smoother 'zoom' effect. the windows also move around, as Yuki is probably re-arranging them as she works. They disappear in a single frame. I am going to use that behavior in the HTML rendering engine.

I'm well into the DHTML version now, here is a screenshot. The code window is composed of tiny reusable GIFs and lots of css boxes and an animation engine fills it with scrolling text from a configurable randomized code repository.

Anyway, I think I'm 1/3 there so figure two more days of coding then I'll have something to test. I think I will keep working on this rather than try and reconfig the gif to 1024x768 if that's ok w/u.

i have been thinking about this... and also come to the conclusion that a number of small gifs would be a nice way to do it, then all the screen saver would have to do is display them. easy.
it would be good, at least as a first version. i might also try and think of a way to do one that actually displays text. instead of being on a [black] background, would people be interested in one that displayed pseudo-windows over their actual desktop?

...

actually, even as i write this message i have an idea - this might even be an easier way after all. can someone post just the typing animation with out anything around it please? a large text file of "source code" would be useful as well.

>> Anonymous

me yet again.

i have done a proof-of-concept of an XP screen saver that uses multiple windows. its main window will be yuki typing in the bottom-right corner (may make this swap with btm-left to make more screen-savery). then various other windows that look like consols will popup and scroll code. i will try and create a typing effect, though differentialting between user input and the output from the programs would be best, this could be a bugger to code. either way, this should get interesting.
the only down-side so far is that XP runs savers on their own desktop, so you lose the effect of stuff happening over the users desktop. i don't even think it is possible to take a screen shot and display it in the background.

back. i now have the framework of a project that displays the yuki typing gif in the bottom-right of the screen (in a border-less window) and other, more typical looking windows (with system border, etc) appear in random places at random intervals (timings will be adjustable).

current todo list for first release:
-animated / scrolling code in console windows.
-prevent pop-up windows overlapping.
-make yuki animation move every so often (e.g. swap corners of the screen).

i will try to post an early preview in the next 24 hours or so.
>> Anonymous
>>428288
p.s. a large text file of code (say, 2000 lines) to start testing with would be a massive time-saver! v1 will proabbly have a text file next to it and grab random chunks out of it. once that is working, i can start playing with more advanced animation. e.g. a series of snippets, each with a "command line" to be typing-animted and a following output to be dumped a line at a time. if i had 30+ such prepaired functions, then they could be picked and bolted together randomly. v3 could incorporate the user's hard-disc file structure ^^.

This is going to sound stupid, but my Windows XP Pro does not use Animated Gifs as wallpapers no matter what method I use to set it as my wallpaper. One of two things happens:
1. I get no image at all (aka just a screen of my desktops' bg color). This happens when setting in most ways: Explorer, Display Options, Windows Picture Viewer, etc.
2. I get the first frame (by setting from Firefox or IE).

i now have the very first beta release - version 0.0! note that there is still a LOT of work to do, but this should give people an idea of how it works and what is still needed.

!!what i still need most is better / more code snips!!
currently i just stole a load of blocks from the web version. if someone could do some of these for me, it would be fantastic. in the release there is a folder of text files - each snipit (it its own file) is chosen at random. each window will chose several and put them one after another in random order. there is not naming order, currently ANY file (regardless of ext) will be used.
lines starting with "." are typed char-by-char (without the dot), all other lines are just blatted in one go. i hope this makes sense to someone.

obviously all the usual disclaimers apply. use this software at you own risk!

this beta release is available here.

new release of the screensaver (version 0.02) available here:
aefaradien.net/yuki
only 1 real change, but it is important: i think i have fixed the major memory leak in the previous version (ran it for 30 min on my machine and memory usage did not go above ~13 mb).

!testers greatly appreciated!

also, we still need good code content! preparing the files is really easy and i have had > 20 unique hits on the download page in the last 24 hours. if each user made 1 file, then that would more than double current content.

how to make a file:
1. make new text file (try notepad.exe).
2. fill with interesting content that you feel is relavent. perhaps set your text editor to a fixed-with font (e.g. lucida console) for a better preview.
3. by default lines are written in one go, to make a line be "typed", put a dot (".") at the start of the line (the dot itself will not appear in the output).
4. copy the text file to the "psudo-code" folder next to the .scr file.
5. post txt file here or like to it ... or something.
6. ...

Thank you Anon!
Thank you for all you did already.
Thank you for all you will do in future.

love this thread.

i just took all the code from a game i made in high school years ago and adapted it to the screensaver. works great, and looks fairly correct since the game was a scrolling shooter.
>> Anonymous
It's awesome to fuck with people, the way it works on Vista:

See, it just stays the same way, but the screensaver appears above everything that's going (not really saving the screen, but whatever), and these random windows keep opening and shit. Freaks people out.

Also, it doesn't display correctly on dual monitor systems. It'll only show up on the primary monitor. It'd be better if shit would pop up on both screens, or if Yuki's frame could be all the way to the right (on whatever monitor happens to be farthest in that direction).
>> Anonymous
thank you so very much to everyone for your encouragement!

the request for dual-screen support has been duly noted and added to the todo list. this will no doubt turn into one of those projects i keep poking for months to come. i occasionally use dual-screen, so expect support for this very soon - as i have all the modules for dual-screen (and more) already written from other projects, this really will not take long.

i will aim to have a new release by monday evening (or possibly sunday if things go well).

one has to wonder, how much longer will this thread last before auto-pruning? not that it really matters, we can always create another.

Just in case (and this is theoretical mind you), if any vista users try this and get a slew of errors, try turning UAC off. Just sayin'. Not like this happened to me or anything.

It might look better if the window locations were a bit more random. On mine the windows get kind of bunched up and don't really use the whole screen but instead arrange themselves in clusters.

Lags up my laptop too after 30mins or so
T5300 C2D 2gb ram X1400 256mb. Maybe its the cpu powersaving?
>> Anonymous
re: lagging - the most likely cause of this is something else using cpu while it things the machine is idle. e.g. anti-virus, system file indexing, etc. perhaps run some cpu monitoring software and watch for something hogging it? i have already been made aware of this one and will try to find a way to make the scr increase its process-priority.

re: window bunching - currently windows are displayed completely at random. of the top of my head i can't thing of the equation to do it differently, but i will have a think!

i must be on fire this morning, v0.03 is out for testing!

change log extract:
-add: more code files. lots from the IOCCC. also lots provided by anon of /w/.
-change: when consol text boxes fill, for simplicity they clear completly instead of pruning off the top.
-add: option to increases its own process priority (should reduce lag).
-add: option to not show the yuki typing animation.
-add: multiple monitor support. code windows will appear on any monitor, though the animation will always remain on the first.

i have a quick question, will the screen saver eventually have a window on ever part of the screen as to act as a screen saver is made to do and stop burn in. I know burn in isn't much of a problem these days I'm just wondering
>> Anonymous
>>430290
could do, though obviously this mostly applies to CRT users. the only thing i can think of would be an option to have a black background behind everything? if people want it, this would not be too hard to do.
>> Tripfriend !FRiEnd2YUk
>>430294
I actually like how it leaves the screen in tact. And wouldn't that the screen as a whole does get changed on a regular basis from the windows popping up help prevent screen burn?

Wow, this is awesome...

One question tho, and it's probably been answered already. How do I set this as my screensaver? When I click the scr file it runs it, but when I go to Properties>Screensaver I don't see it there, just my previous screensaver and all the windows default ones. Do I have to extract this somewhere specific?


I'm trying to come up with some txt files for the 'code.' I'll let y'all know if I come up with anything....

actually that screen shot is really helpful, as it allows me to see that that is the same problem as before. what you have done is to extract the zip "flat". if you look at the zip you will see that all the txt code files were in a subfolder called "psudo-code" (yea i know, i will correct the spelling error in the next version.).

current limit is 10, but i can make this configurable.

right, this is to everyone who keeps asking for a TRANSPARENT GIF: this might be a little hard to understand but there are TWO SEPARATE PROJECTS in this thread:
1. a gif / active desktop WALLPAPER.
2. a SCREEN SAVER written in VB6.
i hope that is not too difficult to understand. even if you had a transparent gif, it would NOT APPEAR ON TOP OF OTHER WINDOWS.
the screensaver is a full application and there for reads the size of your screen and adjusts it self appropriately.

i hope that makes it quite clear. any questions?

>>430948
in regard to installing: yes you COULD extract it to the windows dir, but it would be much tidier to put it somewhere else in its own folder. for anyone who does not know better, i suggest "c:\program files\yuki". then goto that folder and right-click and select "install". ok so it won't appear in the screensaver list by default, but also it won't clutter your windows folder. and right-clicking really is not that hard and how often do you need to change your screen saver?
i could do an installer, but i really don't see the point. they are often cumbersome and add vasts amounts to the download file size. someone else could do an installer for me, but it would always remain unofficial.

if you are worried about binary blobs, then i can send you the source under GPL. i just have not posted it yet because it is messy and needs some clean up.

I use RK Launcher and when I preview the screensaver, it works fine, but when I initiate it normally, the animation window is automatically minimized to the dock. The cmd windows work fine, though. Any idea what's wrong?
>> Anonymous
>>432104
that is a bug i know of between windows screensavers, borderless-windows and VB6. in normal operation, it knows that this will happen and restores it's self 1 second after launching. since i don't know how RK hooks into the system to intercept window state changes, i can't suggest an immediate fix. i will have to install it my self and run some tests.

It is due to the fact that zip now prunes threads based on popularity, and since this thread keeps getting replied to and stays active, it will continue to be available. I don't know when it will all die down, but there is an epic amount of content in here, even without much in the way of images, which is why it continues (in an image thread, when the limit is reached, activity dies down)
