From Dragon Age Toolset Wiki
Revision as of 02:55, 16 December 2009 by FollowTheGourd (Talk | contribs) (cleanup sections. Need to provide a better example still.)
A class method of the ExternalCommands ActionScript class.
Returns the requested attribute value from the game engine
GetValue(
- a_sAttributeName
);
- Parameters:
-
- a_sAttributeName
- The hierarchical attribute-string associated with the value to retrieve
- Returns:
- The requested attribute value from the game engine
Description
The attribute name is a string which has meaning to the game engine. It's typically hierarchical, using dots to separate the levels.
Examples
The following would return the gamma setting in the user's DragonAge.ini file.
ExternalCommands.GetValue("ClientOptions.VideoOptions.Gamma")
Known Issues
If the retrieved value is to be passed back to the game and is a number, you must instead use GetNumber or convert the value back into a Number type first.
