  • 1.  Is there a way to check if a Scene is Online through Script?

    Posted 20 days ago

    I'm trying to do something through script  where it only happens when another specific scene is Online. I managed to reference said scene by GetSceneByID, but trying to check if it's online with .IsOnline is only returning me false. Is there a proper way to do this or i'm doing it wrong?

    By default, GetSceneByID gets a copy of the scene. 

    Public Function GetSceneByID( _
   ByVal ID As Long, _
   ByRef Scene As xpScene, _
   Optional ByVal AsCopy As Boolean = True _
) As Boolean

    Set the third parameter to False to get the original. If you have multiple copies of the scene, you might need to take a different approach.

    Hello Eyriam,

    Couple of questions:

    Are you on Studio or Tessera? The method varies a bit between the two. 

    Is your 'other Scene' the only one that goes online on that layer?

    Hi.
    Try the script below.

            Dim fb As xpOutputFrameBuffer
        engine.GetOutputFrameBuffer(0, fb)
        Dim checkscene As xpScene
        If fb.GetSceneOnLayer(0, checkscene) Then
            If checkscene.Name = "Name" Then 'The name of your specific  scene
                'Your scrip
            End If
        End If

    And the second sctript. You should set it into OnSceneOnline engine. The script will only run when a specific scene is launched.

            If OnlineScene.Name = "Name" Then 'The name of your specific scene
            'your script
        End If
