Example code for the id XMSW_SPAWN_SPEED in Omspawn

Note that this is not the actual code from the Omspawn file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (Omspawn.res)


LONG  XMSW_SPAWN_SPEED
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         MSPAWN_SPEED_ABS; 
        MSPAWN_SPEED_REL; 
        MSPAWN_SPEED_INH; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (Omspawn.h)

#ifndef OMSPAWN_H__
#define OMSPAWN_H__
enum
{
  XMSW_SPAWN_SPEED = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    MSPAWN_SPEED_ABS = 1,
    MSPAWN_SPEED_REL = 2,
    MSPAWN_SPEED_INH = 3,
};
#endif	// OMSPAWN_H__

String File Code (Omspawn.str)

// C4D-StringResource
