New ubersound work-around!

Woohoo no more messing with TIKIs

I found an easier way which seems to work on both client and server directly from the map script.

Here's how I did it (put this above level waittill prespawn):

Code: Select all

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
local.master aliascache soundalias wavfile soundparms numbers channel loaded maps "mapname"
// local.master remove // edit: omit this line

You can add a great number of aliases this way

.

If there is a demand for it I can probably make a global script for it.

Nice work, thats much easier than having to place them in a tiki and having to pre-chache them.

What is a "ScriptMaster" and where can I read about them?
Does it work on dedicated servers?
Do we need all three lines for each aliascache?

Well a ScriptMaster is a pretty weird thing, that's all I know about it. You can read about it in g_allclasses.html

It does work on dedicated servers

You need only one line per aliascache, like this:

Code: Select all

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster

local.master aliascache soundalias1 wavfile1 soundparms numbers channel loaded maps "mapname"
local.master aliascache soundalias2 wavfile2 soundparms numbers channel loaded maps "mapname"
local.master aliascache soundalias3 wavfile3 soundparms numbers channel loaded maps "mapname"

Wow! Nice job JV. I seriously think you can avoid using the test_ prefix on SP maps with a simple global script like that.

i'd pat you on the back for this 1 JV if you weren't all the way over in Holland (at least i think that's where you are) so you'll have to do it urself this time

GOOD FIND

say, if i used this, how do i cache the animations?

Post by **jv_map** » Tue Jul 15, 2003 6:21 am

Hmm you have to $include the animations in the TIKI file I think

Can't cache them from script

can you show me an example? like what one german char would have?

nevermind i found out how to edit that file, so now i got only the sounds i need, and only the animations i need. now what i want to know is WHEN should you run that scriptmaster aliascaching thing?
