How to make Yellow Lettering

[-=DSC=-DM]

Hello,
I was just wondering if there was a way in making Yellow lettering on the left-center of the screen. Like for saying the server IP and what map rotations are going on

[jv_map]

Use the iprintln_noloc command.

Example:

Code: Select all

serverinfo:
  while(1)
  {
    wait 30
    iprintln_noloc "You are on " (getcvar sv_hostname) " server"
    wait 1
    iprintln_noloc "IP: " (getcvar net_ip) ":" (getcvar net_port)
    wait 2
    iprintln_noloc "Map rotation: " (getcvar sv_maplist)
    wait 90
  }
end

Well if you are hosting, yes, otherwise, no

Ok, new map script should be like this:

Code: Select all

main:
  // cvar stuff here

  level waittill prespawn

  // possibly there is some stuff here

  level waittill spawn

  // add the line below 
  thread serverinfo

  // more stuff might be here
end

// more threads could be here....

// add this all at the bottom of the script:
serverinfo:
  while(1)
  {
    wait 30
    iprintln_noloc "You are on " (getcvar sv_hostname) " server"
    wait 1
    iprintln_noloc "IP: " (getcvar net_ip) ":" (getcvar net_port)
    wait 2
    iprintln_noloc "Map rotation: " (getcvar sv_maplist)
    wait 90
  }
end

Where do i find the script that you are talking about...?

[jv_map]

In pak5.pk3, all dm and obj .scr files. You could also place this in the global/dm_precache.scr file (pak0.pk3).

How do i edit/open these files

[jv_map]

Use any text editor of your preference

By the way, windows has a problem with .scr files. It thinks they're screensavers. To change this(so you can doubleclick to open), if you have windows xp, open any folder. Click Tools>Folder Options>File Types. Here click new extension and fill it out. Then choose your preferred text editor. Enjoy!
