Have a question about Modding? Ask Here!

Nevermind. I took a wild guess and it worked.

So the Ban Hammer model... Where's that in the brf files?  Been doing lots of re texturing and the like and have looked for it many times but with no luck. Any help would be most appreciated.

If I remember correctly, it's in one of the Russian weapons brfs, if not then it's in the French ones.

How do I change the main picture? Whenever I put one in with the correct size and stuff it just shows up blank. Please Help!

[Penn]

Have you saved it with the correct file format?

[EdwardTheGreat]

Have you saved it with the correct file format?

Yeah I saved it with .bmp

[Penn]

Have you saved it with the correct file format?

Yeah I saved it with .bmp

Save it as a .dds

Unless you mean the "main"-picture, then you've saved it correctly

I mean when u first go into the Modules and then the module folder it says main there. I want to know how to change that.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but here's my question: How would I go about restricting certain units on a server without having to constantly have admins on, a la the [FH] Zombies server?

[PaperSalad]

It's the perfect place to ask. I'm actually the one who made the scripts for the zombies server. What I did, and it may not be the most efficient way of doing it, is adding a new condition in the script

check_troop_availability

right before this part at the end,

Code

(try_end),
	  
(try_begin),
       (gt,":fail_message",-1),
       (str_store_string, s22, ":fail_message"),
(try_end),

add something like

Code

 
(try_begin),
	(is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_russian_opol_nco", "trp_austrian_infantry"), 
	 (try_begin),
		   (eq,":store_messages",1),
		   (str_store_troop_name_plural, s21, ":troop_no"),
		   (assign, ":fail_message", "str_already_to_many_players_class_s21"),
		   (str_store_string, s4, "str_zombie_partizan"),
		   (multiplayer_send_string_to_player, ":player_no", multiplayer_event_show_server_message, s4),
	 (try_end),
	 (assign, ":class_ok", 0),
(try_end),

(is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_russian_opol_nco", "trp_austrian_infantry"), 
is your condition for the troops you want to restrict.

(str_store_string, s4, "str_zombie_partizan"),
(multiplayer_send_string_to_player, ":player_no", multiplayer_event_show_server_message, s4),
and these lines are optional, they only show a message to the player telling them that they have to go partizan.

Since this code is only going to be server side, it'll look like you can select these troops but in reality, once you click, you won't change.

Don't hesitate if you have any more questions.

[Zelmaranth]

Thanks for the information, but I seem to have trouble getting it to work. I can still choose any class I want.

In my module_scripts, starting on line 20181:

Code

  (try_begin),
	(is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_french_infantry", "trp_french_ship"), 
	(is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_french_ship_cannon", "trp_napoleon"), 
	 (try_begin),
		   (eq,":store_messages",1),
		   (str_store_troop_name_plural, s21, ":troop_no"),
		   (assign, ":fail_message", "str_already_to_many_players_class_s21"),
		   (str_store_string, s4, "str_prisoner"),
		   (multiplayer_send_string_to_player, ":player_no", multiplayer_event_show_server_message, s4),
	 (try_end),
	 (assign, ":class_ok", 0),
(try_end),
	  
      (try_begin),
        (gt,":fail_message",-1),
        (str_store_string, s22, ":fail_message"),
      (try_end),
      
      (assign,reg3,":class_ok"),
      (assign,reg4,":fail_message"),
    (try_end),
    ]),

In my module_strings, on line 806:

Code

 ("prisoner", "You must choose the Sailor class."),

Again, I really appreciate the help.

EDIT: I'm trying to only allow the Sailor troop.

[PaperSalad]

It's just a small mistake, you have to replace
(is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_french_infantry", "trp_french_ship"),
by
(this_or_next|is_between, ":troop_no", "trp_french_infantry", "trp_french_ship"),

This way it creates an or between the two conditions, instead of an and.
They way you had it set up it would check if it's between french_infantry and french_ship AND between french_ship_cannon and napoleon. Which is impossible.

Also, the way you have it set up, they'll be able to choose napoleon, so you might want to replace trp_napoleon by trp_prussian_infantry.
(you can see the list of troops in the file ID_troops.)

Hope this helps.

Ok, so let's say I am making a skin: How do I asign a brf file to be coloured after a specific texture?

What exactly do you mean?

[Malkolm R. Lind]

Like when you have the body of for example the 45e. How do you asign it to be coloured after a specific texture?
