I made a remake of your script:

Code: Select all

main:
	// These 3 cvars are never used
	setcvar "announce" "1"
	setcvar "g_message1" "Modded Weapons And Names"
	setcvar "g_message2" "Bazookas are Renamed And The Axis Rocket"
	level waittill spawn
	thread message
end

message:
	while (1)
	{
		// U sure its "WELLCOME", and not "WELCOME"?
		// local.message = getcvar "WELLCOME"
		local.message = "1" // Hard coded for testing
		wait 5
		if (local.message == "1") // Failure point. If cvar above is not exactly "1", you'll get squat.
		{
			wait 2
			// This line looks strange... are U sure you know what you are doing?
			// iprintln ("Welcome to " + getcvar "89th Clan Server") \n ("?|?|89TH:-?erg|?|?: " + getcvar "")
			iprintln "Welcome to 89th Clan Server"
			iprintln "?|?|89TH:-?erg|?|?: I'm so cool"
			wait 30
			// This line looks strange as well...
			// iprintln (getcvar "Modded weapons") \n (getcvar "Thanks To CrazySniper")
			iprintln "Modded weapons Thanks To CrazySniper"
		} else {
			// Nothing here... you can remove the else part if it does nothing :)
		}
	wait 120
    }
end

As you havent really described what you are trying to do, I'm just guessing. So if this does not help you: describe what you want it to work like...

Welcome to .MAP Serg - My DSL is down

I am on dialup with a 28K download.

Anyway that script is really messed up. It does not make alot of sense the way you changed it.

I suggest you look at my original script file and study it alittle. If you have any questions, post us here.

Welcome to scripting man. Its alot of fun and stress.

Dude learning to walk was hard. Apply the same principal to scripting. Practice and read alot. Go through the original Pak3 files that came with the game. See how stuff is done and where files are stored. This forum is a great tool to use along with your practice and readings.

Regarding your script, just type something up like this.

Code: Select all

main:

setcvar "g_announce" "1"
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext2" "============"
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext3" "Weapons are modified"
setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" "Play By Server Rules"
setcvar "g_obj_axistext3" "============"


level waittill spawn


_mymessage:

while (1)
{
if (getcvar (g_announce)=="1")
{
thread mytext
}
wait 120
}
end

mytext:
wait 5
iprintln "?|Welcome To 89th Clan Server|?" \n iprintln ("ADMIN: " + getcvar "name")
wait 3
iprintln "Visit clan site at 89th-clan.vze.com"
wait 5
iprintln "Most mods by CrazySniper"
end

Come on do a bit of guessing and experimenting on your own it is a good way to learn .

iprintln prints what is after the command to the screen

iprintln "Visit clan site at 89th-clan.vze.com"

gee what do you think this will do ? Maybe print Visit clan site at 89th-clan.vze.com on the screen ? Are we getting warmer yet ?

iprintln "?|Welcome To 89th Clan Server|?" \n iprintln ("ADMIN: " + getcvar "name")

I don't know where the \n came from but get rid of it and put what is after it on a different line or should I say change what is after it . Warmer !

The \n may be used for a line break, but only in this manner:

iprintln "my line1\nmy line 2"

hmm looks like I had a probem with the edit feature wonder why. How do you delete your own posts ?

Post by **jv_map** » Thu Oct 09, 2003 1:53 pm

Press this button

or edit and then check 'delete post'.

Serg that prob was caused because I inadvertently left an iprintln command in the said line. You can fix it by deleting the second IPRINTLN that appears in that line. It should look like this:

Code: Select all

iprintln "?|Welcome To 89th Clan Server|?" \n ("ADMIN: " + getcvar "name")

That will correct it.

PS: Happy belated bird-day.
