Sorry but im to confused.......... ...i'll keep trying so plz can someone help me with something that actually works coz i cant gett any bas***d thing to work..................

Try this:

Start up Notepad

Type in your data......i.e.
STRM_Alpharadio1,"Alpha 1 here... reading you loud and clear"

Go to Notepads File Menu and choose Save As

Make sure you switch to  All Files [.*.] in the 'Save as type' gadget.

In the 'File name' gadget, type in the name you wish to give your .csv file......for example......If you wish to call it Stringtable, then type 'Stringtable.csv'.

Navigate to where you wish to save it, then press the Save button.

The file must have the .csv extension and not a .txt extension.

Hope this will fix it for you.

Sorry, I'm no expert with triggers or indeed scripts.

Maybe someone else can help you with that bit.

I'll maybe learn these skills at some time, but for the moment I can't advise you .

C ya all

[rhysduk]

I was wondering if any one was still watching this as i think the mission is finished and i need a final BETA tester....?

Let me know if any1 is still watching.....CYA

[rhysduk]

Is any1 still watching this or not ??

Some1 take alook ta this plz....

_cam = "camera" camcreate [0, 0, 0]
titlecut [" The enemy ","Black in",3]
_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "white"]
_cam camsettarget fire
_cam camsetrelpos [2, 2, 2]
_cam camcommit 1
~5
_cam camsettarget car1
_cam camsetrelpos [0, 1.5, 2]
_cam camcommit 12
@camcommitted _cam
~1.5
camdestroy _cam
exit

i dont knoiw if theres anything wron gwith it but it sure as hell dont work ....

PS : its for a cutscene ..............

RHYS

[rhysduk]

The rpoblem is that i have created a cutscene with a script and when the trigger is tripped to enter camera mode ( if ya know what i mean ) all i can see is the ruddy sea....

I know this has been asked b4 but i cant find the topic anywhere....

Regards rhys

[macguba]

If all you can see is sea then that usually means the camera has been created at 0,0,0 which is sea but it doesn't understand the next command.

This line looks odd
_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "white"]


Try this:-

; camera script

titlecut [" ","BLACK IN",3]

enableradio false

_cam = "camera" camcreate [0,0,0]
_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "back"]

_cam camsettarget fire
_cam camsetrelpos [2,2,2]
_cam camcommit 0
@camcommitted _cam

~8

titlecut ["","BLACK OUT",2]

~2

_cam cameraeffect ["terminate", "back"]
camdestroy _cam

enableRadio true
exit



When the mission is ready post it in the beta forum.  There's a sticky at the top of that board with some tips.
