    Introduction
    This script makes a web page open when you start and stop playing a game. This script is for people who have decided to sell their game and are splitting their game into a demo and full version. If you are one of these people, you should put this code into the demo of your game. 

    Features

    • Webpage opens when demo launches.
    • Webpage opens when demo closes.
    Screenshots
    N/A

    How to Use

    Step 1: Get your environment set up

    1. Unzip ReminderScreenACE.zip (attached to this topic at bottom)

    2. In Reminder Screen project, copy the "images" folder and the "demoscreen.html" file to your Demo project.

    3. Go into the images folder and replace Title.jpg with your own graphic. It would be best to keep the same size image.

    4. Double-click on the demoscreen.html file and make sure everything looks okay. If you want to change something, edit the html file (price, a link to your website, etc)

    Step 2: Add script to your demo game

    1. Open your demo project. 

    2. Open your script editor.

    3. Under Materials, create a new entry called Demo Screen.

    4. Add the following script to Demo Screen:

    module SceneManager class << self alias ssdl_run run end def self.run self.open_file("demoscreen.html") ssdl_run self.open_file("demoscreen.html") end def self.open_file(filename) shell = Win32API.new("shell32", "ShellExecute", ['L', 'P', 'P', 'P', 'P', 'L'], 'L') shell.Call(0, "open", filename, 0, 0, 1) endendDemo
