Category: CoD 4 Level Design Posted: Saturday, Jun. 7, 2008 04:36 pm
Ok ,well I'm a kind of new mapper and I would like some help from you nice people on modsonline :D First of all because I am a new mapper I used the .gsc file from the raw one called something like mp_test.gsc and I changed the name to mp_hostage.gsc (I have already made the map). Original Code (Put in raw/maps/mp in my cod4 directory) Code: main() { maps\mp\_load::main(); ambientPlay("ambient_backlot_ext"); game["allies"] = "sas"; game["axis"] = "opfor"; game["attackers"] = "axis"; game["defenders"] = "allies"; game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" ); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25"); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25"); setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3"); setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800"); } Then I went on to try and make a moving door, so I followed all the steps and made the door and hinge and trigger and did all of that stuff. Then I changed the .gsc file like it said. The file is still in raw/maps/mp in my cod4 directory. Code: main() { maps\mp\_door::main(); maps\mp\_load::main(); ambientPlay("ambient_backlot_ext"); game["allies"] = "sas"; game["axis"] = "opfor"; game["attackers"] = "axis"; game["defenders"] = "allies"; game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" ); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25"); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25"); setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3"); setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800"); } Then I made _door.gsc Code: main() { doortriggers = getentarray("doortrig","targetname"); for(i=0;i doortriggers[i] thread door_think(); } door_think() { self.doormoving = false; self.doorclosed = true; self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.doormoving) self thread door_move(); } } door_move() { self.doormoving = true; if(self.doorclosed) { self.doormodel rotateyaw(-90,1,0.5,0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = false; } else { self.doormodel rotateyaw(90,1,0.5,0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = true; } self.doormoving = false; } But, I am not sure if it is right. This is also put in raw/maps/mp in my cod4 directory. Then I compiled BSP, compiled reflections, and built fast file. Also if its any help when I click Update zone file this is what is already in there: Code: col_map_mp,maps/mp/mp_hostage.d3dbsp rawfile,maps/mp/mp_hostage.gsc weapon,mp/ac130_105mm_mp xmodel,weapon_ac130 xmodel,body_mp_usmc_specops xmodel,head_mp_usmc_tactical_mich_stripes_nomex xmodel,body_mp_usmc_sniper xmodel,head_mp_usmc_tactical_baseball_cap xmodel,body_mp_usmc_recon xmodel,head_mp_usmc_nomex xmodel,body_mp_usmc_assault xmodel,head_mp_usmc_tactical_mich xmodel,body_mp_usmc_support xmodel,head_mp_usmc_shaved_head xmodel,body_mp_arab_regular_cqb xmodel,head_mp_arab_regular_headwrap xmodel,viewhands_desert_opfor xmodel,body_mp_arab_regular_sniper xmodel,head_mp_arab_regular_sadiq xmodel,body_mp_arab_regular_engineer xmodel,head_mp_arab_regular_ski_mask xmodel,body_mp_arab_regular_assault xmodel,head_mp_arab_regular_suren xmodel,body_mp_arab_regular_support xmodel,head_mp_arab_regular_asad rawfile,maps/mp/mp_hostage_fx.gsc rawfile,maps/createfx/mp_hostage_fx.gsc rawfile,vision/mp_hostage.vision rawfile,maps/mp/_door.gsc Then, when I run the map the error that comes up is: Code: [b]Error script compile error bad syntax doortriggers[i] thread door_think(); (see console for details)[/b] Thank you to those who help ^-^ edited on Jun. 7, 2008 04:37 pm by EvilSniperTom

You need to replace Code: for(i=0;i In your _door script with Code: for(i=0;i<doortrigger.size;i++) Apart from that it look fine.

Hmm Thanks for trying but it did not work =[ Code: main() { doortriggers = getentarray("doortrig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<doortrigger.size;i++) doortriggers[i] thread door_think(); } door_think() { self.doormoving = false; self.doorclosed = true; self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.doormoving) self thread door_move(); } } door_move() { self.doormoving = true; if(self.doorclosed) { self.doormodel rotateyaw(-90,1,0.5,0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = false; } else { self.doormodel rotateyaw(90,1,0.5,0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = true; } self.doormoving = false; }

Try this, Code: main() { thread my_door(); } my_door() { doortrigger = getentarray("doortrig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<doortrigger.size;i++) doortrigger [i] thread door_think(); } door_think() { self.doormoving = false; self.doorclosed = true; self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.doormoving) self thread door_move(); } }door_move() { self.doormoving = true; if(self.doorclosed) { self.doormodel rotateyaw(-90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = false; } else { self.doormodel rotateyaw(90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = true; } self.doormoving = false; } You are defining the entity as doortriggers, yet the script calls for doortrigger (note the missing s) edited on Jun. 7, 2008 05:35 pm by Rasta

Thats my mistake, in that script i included the main function which is normally at the top fo your script for example main() { thread 1(); thread 2(); } thread 1() { blah blah } thread 2() { blah blah } Ok so at the top of your script you call the function which handle your doors, if your using the script i posted then this will be 'my_door', you don't need to include this main() { thread my_door(); } in the middle of your script, if this is all to complicated or confusing then post up your full .gsc script and ill edit it for you.

Lol This is getting quite confusing, but I hope you don't mind if you can edit it for me. But, my _door.gsc file is now the same as what you posted up. Code: main() { thread my_door(); } my_door() { doortrigger = getentarray("doortrig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<doortrigger.size;i++) doortrigger [i] thread door_think(); } door_think() { self.doormoving = false; self.doorclosed = true; self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.doormoving) self thread door_move(); } }door_move() { self.doormoving = true; if(self.doorclosed) { self.doormodel rotateyaw(-90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = false; } else { self.doormodel rotateyaw(90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = true; } self.doormoving = false; } Also if its the mp_hostage.gsc file you want its: Code: main() { maps\mp\_door::main(); maps\mp\_load::main(); ambientPlay("ambient_backlot_ext"); game["allies"] = "sas"; game["axis"] = "opfor"; game["attackers"] = "axis"; game["defenders"] = "allies"; game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" ); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25"); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25"); setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3"); setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800"); }

Ok try this, you no loner need _door.gsc, only your mp_hostage.gsc which should contain the follow script. Code: main() { maps\mp\_load::main(); ambientPlay("ambient_backlot_ext"); game["allies"] = "sas"; game["axis"] = "opfor"; game["attackers"] = "axis"; game["defenders"] = "allies"; game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland"; setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" ); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25"); setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25"); setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3"); setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800"); thread my_door(); } my_door() { doortrigger = getentarray("doortrig","targetname"); for(i=0;i<doortrigger.size;i++) doortrigger [i] thread door_think(); } door_think() { self.doormoving = false; self.doorclosed = true; self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname"); while (1) { self waittill("trigger"); if(!self.doormoving) self thread door_move(); } }door_move() { self.doormoving = true; if(self.doorclosed) { self.doormodel rotateyaw(-90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = false; } else { self.doormodel rotateyaw(90, 1, 0.5, 0.5); self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone"); self.doorclosed = true; } self.doormoving = false; }
