Playable Piano tut? Need some help here..

[Sir_Ryan]

Dudes, I'm looking desperately for a tutorial (or map) that teaches how to add a playable piano (like found in ml6a of MOHAA SP), but with absolutely no success. And I've searched the forums already.

I've also tried to use the MOHBSPtoMAP prog to decompile the ml6a, but I cannot get the speaker or the trigger to work right.

Please help..

well have a trigger_use targetname and setthread of my_piano and then have a scirpt_object targetname of my_piano_speaker and a key/value of model/ fx/dummy.tik.

then have in your script:

Code: Select all

my_piano:

$my_piano_speaker playsound moh_piano1

end

I made exactly this in the new version of "The Canal"

Code: Select all

open_piano_lid:
	while(true) {
		$piano waitTill trigger
		$piano nottriggerable
		$piano playsound moh_piano
		wait 8
		$piano triggerable
	}
end

And to get this called you add a trigger_use with targetname piano to your map and add theis line

Code: Select all

thread open_piano_lid

to the main method of your script.

Ok, I've got the part that blue explained down and the piano works like it should, but I'd like to add the whole song to the trigger, as in m6la. You know, like every time the player activates the trigger, it plays a different tune? How do I do that? (I'm kinda new to scripting, so please put it in layman's terms )

Thanks.

Just add this above the piano code in my example:

Code: Select all

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
