Few Q's
« on: 06 May 2003, 01:37:17 »
Just a few questions

1.  How can i look at the faces of the official faces and make sure a certain character has that face all the time?  In relation to this, how can i view which file names in the addons folder equal which addon since some addons have confusing file names?

2.  How do i make a trigger only set off if a certain player enters?  I tried using game logics but im not sure how to make them follow the player and if i grouped the game logic OFP crashed.  (Im sure its in the FAQ but my keywords didnt find much)

Thnx

1) UnitName SetFace "FaceName"

valid face names pre-resistance are:

face1 - face99

2) group the player to the trigger and you should have a few more options available to you including:   vehicle/group leader/any group member
for your trigger's activation

:toocool:

Right, listen up m8  :D :)

1.)
       You can't - so the best action is to De-PBO an addon & read the classNames (unless they're listed in the README, most good addons should have that included when they get uploaded).
The classNames (used for "CreateVehicle" commands etc.) are located in the "Config.cpp" file).

Another way to find these classNames (ingame) is to setup a trigger (courtsey Chris Death) :

Trigger settings:

             activation: radio-alpha/repeatedly

             condition: this

             onActivation: hint format ["weapon name: %1\nammo name: %2",weapons player,magazines player]


   Now everytime you activate the 0-0-1 radio call, a hint pops up
   left top on the screen, displaying the weapon and magazine names, you are carrying.

  Now you only have to write those down and maker your own
  weapons list by changing your player unit into the different
  unit types, where you don't know the weapon names yet.

  ;) thx crissym8 for that one

At least this works for custom weapons - dunno about units/vehicles  ???

 :D If ya need to REMOVE addons from the game, but yer afraid of removing OFFICIAL addons, here's a list of ALL official addons which ya mustn't delete/remove:
