This is GoldSlide!
Gold Slide is a slideshow making tool I have developed. What it does is basically KeyNote/Powerpoint in minecraft. It can create and edit slides as well as display slideshows on a monitor. This is mostly a teaching tool. But further developments could lead to animation software, and others.
This will be featured in CCU4!
OVER 1000 LINES OF CODE
What I added
How it works
Each project is stored as a folder
Inside each project folder is slide folders
Inside each slide folder is individual element folders (objects that go on the slide)
Inside each element folder is three documents, element (which stores the type of element), position (which stores the position on the screen), and params (which stores the parameters necesary to put the element on the screen)
The current slide stored in a variable
The program opens the slide folder with the id of the current slide
The program then creates an array which kind of acts as a temp folder to put the elements (stored as arrays inside)
The program then goes through each element and puts it to the screen
To save it, it just replaces all the data in the slide folder with the data in the elements array

It works pretty much just by manipulating folders and text filesEach project is stored as a folder
Inside each project folder is slide folders
Inside each slide folder is individual element folders (objects that go on the slide)
Inside each element folder is three documents, element (which stores the type of element), position (which stores the position on the screen), and params (which stores the parameters necesary to put the element on the screen)
