What do you mean by "step by step" HUDs?

What are you wanting to have happen in the game?

The one and only,

I don't know what you mean either. However, I don't mind sharing a script I made in an educational game for 4 to 6 year olds. If you can glean anything out of this fine. If not that is fine also because I didn't make it just for an example of what I would call step by step huds.

Ooops. Forgot code. It is included now.

This is what happens when you use FPI EditPad.

:ROFL:

The actual code is almost 100 lines long. It is placed in a trigger zone and is the main script. When the player is sent to a "destination" (dest1-6) then the destination entity has its own script which I consider as a subroutine of the main. I have found that thinking like a programmer does help in creating FPSC scripts.

This may not be what he means but what this does is shows one hud after another. The cue to hide one hud and show another is after the audio. Since this age group can't read, everything is done in audio. The huds are actually pictures (keyboard and individual keys and such) and not text. The timer is set to the length of the audio. You will also see a timer set to 250. I have noticed through experience that sometimes the engine goes too quickly and for some reason a line of code might not work. Especially the scancodekeypressed command.

Ye Im not a very advanced programmer....

I just need something where you go up to an entity and a hud appears.

Evolving from that i need some where you go up to the entity and a hud appears, you press enter and the next one appears, ect...

I need to be told step by step where to place the script, because i want to get everything working this time... And i say entity so it works for consoles and charactors, but i wouldnt mind if it could work in triggerzones

OK, what you are wanting is somewhat similar to the code I posted. I understand that can be confusing and not very helpful. I just wanted to at least show you can do something quite simple but seemingly complex.

If Plystire or CE doesn't get to it first, I will post a couple of lines that will do this.

Also, read, read and read some more. If you don't have FPI EditPad download the installer, install it and then update it to 3.3.8. You can then click on the help option and read about the very basics of FPSC scripting. One of the best ways to learn is to look at other scripts and try to figure them out -- what they're doing.

Yes, do read the Scripting tutorials in the official community guide.

Here's what you do:
Download the Guide from the sticky on the FPSC Chat board.
Go to the tutorials.
Follow them along.
Open up Notepad or FPI EditPad and follow what the tutorials are doing, it really does help to see the script for yourself.

When you're done with the tutorial (ANY of them), play around with the script and change things just to see what it'll do. That's a great learning experience.

Hold on guys.... I just want to know how to make a hud apear with an objective not how to program or script.... Can anyone show me step by step where to place the script, who to give it to and generally give me step by step instructions... Theres got to be someone whos written a basic script....

Also does anyone know how to add a primary objective hud? Basically a hud that appears sometime in the level and then disapears and then a small picture saying primary which reminds you of the objective... Sort of like C&C Renegade but it doesnt need to show you where to go...

if you don't want to learn the easiest scripting language ever then how do you expect to make the gameplay of your game better? Are you going to ask us to make the scripts every time?

Me, too. Doesn't it feel good when you can eventually figure it out. Keep up the good work.

It's ok now that you've adapted it so you know your way around it.

All i wanted was for you to try to learn the parts you needed to make the adaptations on your own.

Use FPI Editpad; I just learned to script, but, after you get the syntax down, all that's left is to memorize the commands. And FPI Editpad has a sidebar that has all of the commands and conditions in it! Hooray for easyness!

Some people say that I'm crazy... And I agree.

Iv already got the FPI script guys!!! I have looked at it but havent really used it much. I'll try to use it more often if it makes you guys happy

.

And this post has gone off topic. I orriginally wanted to use the pop-up hud to show you a code to unlock the next level, but now i decided to incorperate it into the Game Complete hud. I recon this was the easiest way to do this anyways

So long story short there is now no need for this post

, may as well leave it up, but we can change the subject now to.... What are useful scripts that people have made and are available for download...

E.G. Allies, Vehical driving, Deul Weapons, ect...

The mod iv is Plys mod.

I did the routine thing where you rename and replace the FPSC Game run thing. Then is shows Plys mod before crashing and showing memblock error.

If its any help im running it on vista with the Geforce 7800.

In the readme, you'll see in the known bugs section that memblock errors are usually due to having the incorrect FPSC version necessary for the Mod to run. You need to install the Mod onto FPSC V1.07-V1.09

well im quite confused.... PLY... If you can hear me, Im calling for help!! Do I need to buy the mod or not??? Is the 1.07 thing on the forums the whole thing or not??

well iv changed the FPSC version from 1.07 to 1.09 and it works for longer until i get a different memblock error:

Runtime Error 5104 - Could not create memblock at line 4723

Hopefully someone knows a fix for this

This is the third edit

So i think iv got it working, is it ment to look the same as normal FPSC? But now it crashes at loading entitys.... WHATS WRONG!!!!

The last error you've mentioned is the typical error you see for an incompatible version of FPSC.

I need you to answer some questions for me to help you:
1) Did you buy FPSC?
2) Did you downgrade from a later version of FPSC? Or did you completely uninstall and then reinstall FPSC before upgrading to V1.07?
3) Where did you download Ply's Mod from?

Here is the answer key:
1) Yes
2) Uninstall and then reinstall before upgrading to V1.07-V1.09
3) From the Download section at http://www.plysmod.tk/

If your answers are different, then try again so that your answers match this time.

To answer your questions:
Yes, Mods are meant to look the same as normal FPSC, they simply add new features to it. No, you don't need to buy the mod, buying Ply's Mod will only remove the splash screen and title screen watermark. To be on the safe side, download V1.09 from the official FPSC website and use that before installing the Mod. I haven't heard anything about this before but if you haven't purchased FPSC then that may contribute to why the Mod isn't working.

For further assistance feel free to post about your problems on the Ply's Mod website that I've linked to above.

Purchase FPSC, well thats a funny story. It is probably the cause. Im trying to get my money back as I bought the upgrade from TGC.

I downloaded an upgrade for my purchased FPSC. Then I lost the build game upgrade, cause I was like 11 when this happened, I thought the only fix was the build game upgrade. So I bought it and later found a fix, so Im asking for my money back, and I recon that may be a cause of the problem.

Right now Im going to go and reinstall FPSC and hopefully that will work. Thanx

OK, well this is a nother edit. This time I reinstalled it and now I dont get past the first error I get! Why ME!!!!

I reinstalled it again and I ran FPSC without any mods. I still get a game crash, so its not a problem with the mod
