whats up with the smileys?

[mditalia13]

can anyone fix my code?
-= Double Post =-
sorry for double post but can someone tell me wut i did wrong

[Bronx]

First off, wrong section...
Second, try using elseif statements, and setting Winningnumber to nil, like so

Winningnumber = nil

[Jeremy1026]

your missing commas in your "screenrints"...

screen:print(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)

[mditalia13]

it says error expects ) near you win. wut do i do now

[JaSo PsP]

u forgot to put the comma in here:

Before:
if winningNumber == Lotterynumbers[1]then
screen:print(100,100"YOU WIN!",green)
end

After:
if winningNumber == Lotterynumbers[1]then
screen:print(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)

See the difference? make this change for each one.

[yaustar]

You would also need a space before the keyword 'then'

if winningNumber == Lotterynumbers[1]then

to

if winningNumber == Lotterynumbers[1] then

Also:

screen:print(10,10,winnin gNumber,green)

to

screen:print(10,10,winningNumber,green)

[mditalia13]

ok i fixed that now on the bottom of the code it says 'waitVblankstart'
(a nil value) how do i fix this and then i should be done?

[yaustar]

Capital 's' for Start:
screen.waitVblankStart()

[mditalia13]

it works thanks guys for all your help. now i would like to add a image in the backround. how do i do it?

[yaustar]

http://wiki.ps2dev.org/psp:lua_player:tutorial#images

[mditalia13]

is there a spicific place where i put the image code inside my lottery game code or can i put it whereever i want

[rikardo_92]

(your image name) = Image.load("image.png or jpg")

screen:blit(0, 0, (your image name before assigned))

[mditalia13]

where do i add these 2 sentences in my code?

the load part: but it before ur while true do loop.

blit the image either in a function of ur while true do loop.

[NinjaGuerra]

:p doesnt disableing smilies work?

[mditalia13]

is this right? i dont think it is.

green = Color.new(0,255,0)
math.randomseed(os.time() )
LotteryNumbers = {2,12,16,19,32,48}
winningNumber = 1
oldpad = Controls.read()
fetch[3] = Image.load("image.png")
while true do
screen:blit(0, 0, (fetch[3]))
screen:clear()
pad = Controls.read()
if pad:cross() and oldpad:cross() ~= pad:cross() then
winningNumber = math.random(1,65)
end
if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[1] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end
if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[2] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end
if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[3] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end
if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[5] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end
if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[6] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end
screenrint(10,10,winnin gNumber,green)
screen.waitVblankStart()
screen.flip()
oldpad = pad
end

[yaustar]

Fixed JaSo PsP's code

math.randomseed(os.time() )
LotteryNumbers = {2,12,16,19,32,48}
winningNumber = 1
oldpad = Controls.read()
-- Between the quotation marks, put the file path to the image you want to load.
fetch3 = Image.load("image.png")

while true do
screen:clear()
-- Blit the image AFTER you clear the screen
screen:blit(0, 0, fetch3)
pad = Controls.read()

if pad:cross() and oldpad:cross() ~= pad:cross() then
winningNumber = math.random(1,65)
end

if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[1] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end

if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[2] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end

if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[3] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end

if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[5] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end

if winningNumber == LotteryNumbers[6] then
screenrint(100,100,"YOU WIN!",green)
end

screenrint(10,10,winningNumber,green)
screen.waitVblankStart()
screen.flip()
oldpad = pad

is the image in the same directory as index.lua? is the image called image.png? is it a png image? check through these and see if it works.

[mditalia13]

its called fetch[3] and its a png file. and it is in the directory in lua where my lottery game is

take out the square brackets and change the file name in the code or change the file name to image.png
