If anyone has played manhunt,you would know, that It is quite a brutal and fun game.

I was wondering what script i need to use in FPS creator, to be able to:

1)Be able to create a dark corner
2) Hide in a dark corner and enemies to pass me
3) Be able to sneak behind an enemy and perform a sneak attack.
4) When the sneak attach is performed, a little animation of the brutality will be played (just like manhunt)

Could anyone help me with this query

I can give you pointers on some of the stuff above, but I haven't attempted scripting some of this, so I won't be able to fully help. My pointers (in the order of your list):

1. Use lighting to do this. So long as your light sources don't reach the corners, you can effectively create spaces that aren't lit up at all.

2. You can go in the corner, but I'm not sure how to get it so you aren't "seen". Maybe use a trigger zone in the area that you are supposed to be hidden?

3. Just walk up and attack them from behind?

4. Well, the animation is going to require you to record it first. And I would guess that you would need to alter the entities death/destroy script so that when you strike with a critical blow when using the sneak attack that the animation plays.

1 and 2 I have already created a system for. Just go to a profile and search my posts, you should find it.

As for 3, you could use Plys mod and some math to determine where the enemy is facing relative to where you are facing, and where he is, you could multiply damage.

For 4, (with Ply's) you could attach a camera to the enemy, hide the players weapon, attach a character to the players cam, and animate it to show the attack.

3 and 4 are complicated, but definatley possible.
