Avatars on bots

I've looked through scripts, and I've only found one thing about avatars-it was in the jv_map_ai script
Code: Select all
initvars:
local.showavatar = getcvar(jvbot_showavatar)
if(local.showavatar == "0")
level.jvbot_showavatar = 0
else
{
level.jvbot_showavatar = 1
setcvar "jvbot_showavatar" "1"
}
local.botskill = int(getcvar(jvbot_skill))
if !(local.botskill >= 1 && local.botskill <= 4) // 1, 2, 3 or 4
local.botskill = 2 // default
setcvar "jvbot_skill" local.botskill
level.jvbot_skill = local.botskill
end
i can;t figure out for the life of me what this means-if u can tell me how ur avatars were done (and if they are applicable to human players)
thanks

The real avatar code is in spawnhandler_default.scr and lib_console.scr (long live the mess
).
spawnhandler_default.scr:
Code: Select all
if(level.jvbot_showavatar == 1)
{
local.newbot.headicon = spawn ("models/hud/" + local.team + ".tik")
local.newbot.headicon attach local.newbot "Bip01 Neck"
}
lib_console.scr:
Code: Select all
/**
Shows all bot head icons.
*/
showavatars:
if(level.botlastid != NIL)
{
for(local.i = 1; local.i <= level.botlastid; local.i++)
{
local.bot = level.actualbots[local.i]
if(isAlive local.bot)
{
local.avatar = spawn ("models/hud/" + local.bot.dmteam + ".tik")
local.avatar attach local.bot "Bip01 Neck"
local.bot.headicon = local.avatar
}
}
}
else
println "ERROR[lib_console::showavatars]: Bot script not running."
end
/**
Hides all bot head icons.
*/
hideavatars:
if(level.botlastid != NIL)
{
for(local.i = 1; local.i <= level.botlastid; local.i++)
{
local.bot = level.actualbots[local.i]
if(local.bot.headicon)
local.bot.headicon remove
}
}
else
println "ERROR[lib_console::showavatars]: Bot script not running."
end
You can do this for human players as well

by just replacing local.bot (all the variations) with local.player (or whatever)?

Yup.
You need to include the models/hud/allies.tik and models/hud/axis.tik files though.

JV i got a Q for you. How come we can see the Little Icons of the Opposing team bots? I mean its too easy to play like that.

I know. But I don't know how to make something visible for one team only
