Iceman, I don't know why your thread was locked but I'll help you anyway.

First of all, navigate to setuplevel.fpi located in
FPS Creator/Files/languagebank/english/gamebank/mygame/setuplevel.fpi. Open it up using Notepad or FPI Editpad. Find the four lines:

:state=0:hudreset,hudx=4,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=1,hudmake=numeric
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=15,hudy=5,hudimage=,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=14,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=2,hudmake=numeric
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=85,hudy=8,hudimage=gamecore\huds\ammo.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=status
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=88,hudy=12,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=gamecore\huds\numeric1.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=numeric

and replace them with this:

;state=0:hudreset,hudx=4,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=1,hudmake=numeric
;state=0:hudreset,hudx=15,hudy=5,hudimage=,hudmake=display
;state=0:hudreset,hudx=14,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=2,hudmake=numeric
;state=0:hudreset,hudx=85,hudy=8,hudimage=gamecore\huds\ammo.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=status
;state=0:hudreset,hudx=88,hudy=12,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=gamecore\huds\numeric1.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=numeric

Okay, now go to Files/scriptbank and find the file weapon.fpi. Copy and paste it in the same folder and rename it weapon_hud.fpi. Open it up in notepad. Now paste the following code into it:

;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc = Weapon Pickup

;Triggers

:state=0:hudreset,hudx=4,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=1,hudmake=numeric
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=15,hudy=5,hudimage=,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=14,hudy=8,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=,hudtype=2,hudmake=numeric
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=85,hudy=8,hudimage=gamecore\huds\ammo.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=status
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=88,hudy=12,hudsizex=16,hudsizey=16,hudimage=gamecore\huds\numeric1.tga,hudtype=3,hudmake=numeric
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=90,hudimagefine=gamecore\text\pickedupaweapon.tga,hudname=weaponprompt,hudhide=1,hudmake=display,state=10
:state=10,plrdistwithin=40:state=1,playertake,coloff,rundecal=-1,plrsound=audiobank\items\pickupweapon.wav,hudshow=weaponprompt,hudfadeout=weaponprompt
;state=2:state=3,playerdrop,colon,plrsound=audiobank\items\pickup.wav
:state=3,plrdistfurther=65:state=10

;End of Script

Save it. Place your weapon into the map editor. Right click on it, and change the main script to the new script you just created (weapon_hud.fpi) and give it a test. I don't know whether or not this will work, but it should do in theory because the lives, ammo, and health won't initially run due to being commented out in setuplevel but then loaded once the weapon is picked up.

If you have any more problems let me know.

Thats great Marc

I will give it a go and let you know!

(and yes, I dont know why it was locked either!?! LOL)

Script requests isent allowed(i think).








-Massap2

There's a big sticky by Ply at the top of this board

Probably because it was a request.

Oh, I forgot requests weren't allowed

Requests aren't explicitly allowed on this board for the very reason the sticky was made. If requests are allowed and people actually start to fill these requests, the board will soon become over-run by the request posts. I'm all for helping out now and again, but I would like this board to stay the way it is: as a Script Helping/Sharing board. Not a Script Requesting board.


The one and only,

Sorry for that. I did not know/read that its not ok to request a script. However, in fairness I did say


Yep I did ask if anyone could throw it together for me, but as im sure you can see by the above, I really didnt have a clue how to do it so the idea of someone "helping" me with my script is a bit of a non-starter cos I could not put that kind of script together in the first place! lol

But ok.. I wont post for anyone to make me a script from now on, Ill just post my scripts for general help.
