Computer Simulation Template version 3!!!

Computer Simulation Template
A downloadable template

Version 3 of Computer Simulation Template is out!

I asked what you wanted, and now you've got it! I'm really happy with this new version! The video tutorial is taking a bit longer than I first imagined, but it's coming. I recorded the first one before becoming a parent, and what do you know, turns out it's not easy to find the time to record my voice and editing video now. But, I have written a guide! You can find documentation here!

What's new?

A shader and a calculator! Now, there are software included, to help you design your own programs! There's also a easy to use CRT shader to mimic a retro monitor. 

You can adjust it with settings, to make it suit your needs. There's also a few more settings you can play with, such as text boxes, text colors and a frame counter. Nice!



But the thing I'm most happy with, is this:



I've simplified this template by a lot! In previous versions, you had to go into huge scripts to add your some of your own code whenever you create a new folder. Now, this is all you have to do. One spot. Two simple arrays. That's it. One array to create the icons within the folder, and one array that keeps track of the first array and which window it's connected to.

It took me WEEKS to get this to work, but it's finally done. It's so easy to use that I believe anyone can use this. Even as a first project. 

Please check out the documentation to see how everything works!


Let me know what you think below, and what you wish to see in the video tutorial!
