How do you add new Ambiance sounds???

This is what I tried to do in my Custom content folder. Do I need to define something in the con files? If so what would I need to do?


// VOC MUSIC/SOUND REPLACEMENTS

Sound { ID 400 file "CustomT/CMusic/Music/Voc/barmusic.ogg" }
Sound { ID 401 file "CustomT/CMusic/Music/Voc/Mario.ogg" }

Then you need to add them to MUSICANDSFX sprites in the locations you want each individual sound.

Nice! It works. Thanks!

~~Having an issue.~~

NEVERMIND! Fixed dat business. Used the other form of flashlight code by Darkus which avoids this issue.

Woo.

How does one get the player's name?

I want to display the player's name on screen as part of a new HUD i'm working on. So, whatever the name is for multiplayer, will be displayed on the screen. I can't find anything in the Wiki about this. "Name" was the closest I could find, it and it doesn't do anything.

This is what my code looks like right now:





gamevar NAME 0 1

definequote 254 PLAYERNAME  // Just standin definition.

onevent EVENT_DISPLAYREST
{
getplayer[THISACTOR].Name NAME                                       // Name
redefinequote 254 %d                                                                // Changes quote to display whatever we tell it.
qsprintf 254 254 NAME                                                              // Print does it's mapping voodoo.
gametext STARTALPHANUM 320 10 254 0 0 0 0 0 xdim ydim
}
endevent

I tried using Idplayers too, and it didn't work either. Is there just no way to do this?

What all do I need to do to the con file(s) to add new characters? I was wanting to make three different strippers because I was seeing that doing a pal replacement to the originals was making them change with the random lights lol.. The new one appear in the game. But you can't interact or shoot them. Also for some reason even after using editart to add the stripper gif files to the tiles so they work in 8bit as well. Those aren't showing up in build. But my added wall and floor textures are that are not ported to tiles yet are.

If you have def files, you might as well use tilefromtexture instead of messing with EDITART.

Animated gifs don't automatically become animations in ART. You have to define the tiles separately and set the ART animation value (from defs, the animtilerange command).

The CON files are a scripting language containing elements from C and assembly, so there is no simple solution to what you ask. You just need to program it, and if you don't know programming, learning is the only way.

So i'm working on testing out an idea. I've got other things working more or less the way I want them, but there's something i'm building up to a piece at a time.

Right here, I want to project onto the screen the POV of another object. In this instance a pigcop with a palette of 200. I'm sure this will come off as a bit amusing to some of you, but i'm honestly stumped. Posted Image




gamevar ptemp 0 2
gamevar ptemp2 0 2

//  ('squadmate') Camera

onevent EVENT_DISPLAYREST
{
	getactor[THISACTOR].picnum ptemp
		ifvare ptemp PIGCOP
			getactor[THISACTOR].pal ptemp2
				ifvare ptemp2 200
				getactor[THISACTOR].x x
				getactor[THISACTOR].y y
				getactor[THISACTOR].z z
				getactor[THISACTOR].ang ang
				// getactor[THISACTOR].horiz horiz
				// getactor[THISACTOR].horizoff temp
				// addvarvar horiz temp
				updatesectorz x y z sect
showviewunbiased x y z ang horiz sect 16 41 56 69
}
endevent

Obviously, this is not working. Oh, It does project a view onto the screen, but it's behind the player.

I'm almost certain I need to call the pig stuff in an EVENT_LOADACTOR and then reference it into the EVENT_DISPLAYREST stuff. I was trying that before and it either wasn't showing up, or was just showing a view from the player's feet.

Note, I commented out a few lines that weren't working (for obvious reasons, they reference a camera setup for a player position.)

So, can someone point me in the right direction?

Using tilesfromtexture would be a hell of a lot faster then loading each individual tile via editart. No I know how to make the 8bit tiles oscillate in editart from when I used to design levels before. It's just weird that when I copied over the tiles file(s) to my eduke folder. Nothing changed.

Guess I need to learn how to program now. It looks a bit like php but without the ; at the end of everything lol

DISPLAYREST is always called from the player, so it will never be true.

What you want is this


gamevar temp 0 2

In the second group, you need a space between the 0 and }'s.

This is getting annoying now... I stripped out the entire 8bit folder and def and manually injected the sprites via editart and animated them and named them. "This normally works" and when I went into build there was no name for the tiles nor did they animate... No sounds are working also, only a new bar music thats not an overlay of the original surprisingly works. Every other sound doesn't work at all.

<SOLVED> But there is still minor issue

Ended up just saying eat a bag of shit to the duke folder and deleted it. Backed up my content but did a clean install of everything and now it works. Still have animation issues not working tho with the tiles defined in the def. And the spacing issue didn't change anything

Also.. I don't think any of the Warambiance work period. Because I went to upload new ones as an addition. And of course they don't work... tried to see if the normal ones worked,.. nope.

Yet another attempt to stick my head into the world of eduke scripting.

So as someone who has only ever messed around with structured coding (specifically, fortran and VBA). What are the main differences between that type of programming, and how it's implemented in eduke32? I take it it's more of an object-oriented situation?

While in fortran you can write a block of code like a subroutine, and call it anywhere you want and have it run under certain conditions and a certain number of times, I remember reading somewhere that all the con code runs all the time during the game? Seems a bit different.
Also how sensitive is the code to where its placed in a file?

#1488 Posted 07 July 2014 - 11:45 PM

I think the best idea is to crack open the default GAME.CON and take a look around - apart from a bunch of values that need to be defined you could strip the majority of stuff out and the game would work fine. I don't code otherwise so I can't really compare it to any other languages I'm afraid, but I doubt you'll have any trouble coding (especially if you already know other languages)

I remember a conversation a while ago about disabling saving...anybody remember that or could shed some light on it? There's a particular level I want to disable saving on.

It's like C and Java meet Visual Basic.

Also there is an http://wiki.eduke32..../EVENT_SAVEGAME but I'm not sure if setting it to RETURN -1 would disable it.

There are comparisons to be made with assembly too--the strictly imperative style and the requirement for global-scope variables.
