« on: 13 Jul 2003, 04:51:39 »
Yo, whats up wit dis?
When I hide objs in the init.sqs the arent hidden until the mission starts. in oder words u ken c em when u read the breifing before the mission starts. How do I get em to hide before the briefing?

Hmm... that's wierd...

Do you have any pauses in your init.sqs?
Any wait conditions?

Is the file name (init.sqs) spelt just like that? (no extra characters or anything?)...

Well the only thing I could think of was that the init.sqs was being delayed from executing for some reason... but if there are no timers and it's not misspelt I don't see how.

Try putting your "x" objstatus "hidden" lines in the init field of the player unit and see if that fixes the problem...

Thats wierd Capt.

As long as it's written like this "2" objstatus "hidden"
in the init.sqs, it should work.

did you save to single mission and look at it or are you
looking at the briefing in the mission editor?
(I doubt it matters though)

cheers

I had the EXACT same problem.  I dont know what the heck is up with it.  I was trying to hide an objective through the init.sqs, and in SP it showed it at the Breifing Screen.  But if you hit continue button, and go to your map, it will be hidden then.  LOL, messed up!  Must be a small bug.  1.92 may fix it??? Hope so....

P.S.  If anyone has a mission with a WORKING* Hidden objective through the init.sqs file, it would be appreciated if you could send that to us.
