I was more asking Mobius than you.  Cause I'm pretty sure they are compatible right now with nightly builds, unless he just meant 3.6.9 by 'standard'.

[Mobius]

What are you talking about?  I've been using the latest version of this script with nightly builds and Wanderer branch builds (which have nothing to do with this script) for months.

How about INF builds? Will it work?

[chief1983]

If they've been made with a recent sync with trunk (which as I've stated elsewhere, Karajorma's recent INF-multiplayer builds have been), then yes.

[Mobius]

Thanks for the info, chief.

During an IRC conversation with Flaming_Sword today, we decided to update this script a little. Actually, most of the work was done by Flaming_Sword, I just sat on the sidelines cheering....
The major upgrade here was to enable access to the F3 room. You can get there by clicking on the little box in the top-left corner of the screen.

[chief1983]

You started with my updated version of the script right?  It fixed a few issues in the original post.  Also, this script still has an unresolved issue of breaking multiplayer for some reason.  Somehow, when it's in use, you cannot see any games in the game viewer, nor can your games be seen by others I believe.  That alone has caused me to stop using it for the time being.  Still, cool addition.  Are there any other menus that can only be accessed via a keyboard shortcut?

[The E]

Yes, we started with your revision. Unfortunately, it still breaks Multi.

[Aardwolf]

I would imagine the multi-breaking is somehow being caused by the game 'thinking it's in a multi-game' when in the menu. Because the game works differently in multiplayer, maybe this script is duping the game into thinking it's in server mode (and thus preventing other multiplayer functionality from working)?

[chief1983]

I added the multiplayer functionality to the script in the first place, and one way that worked was to adjust the state change calls.  I've compared the state changes when using the script to when not using it and can't find much of a difference, other than the order some resources seem to be getting loaded.

[The E]

So, here are the results of my first foray into the FS2 code. I've changed the postGameEvent function so that the game is properly informed about what net protocol to use, which was missing before. Diff against 5367 is attached.

(What this means is that the script will not break multiplayer anymore.)

[attachment has decomposed]

[Aardwolf]

Have you tested it?

Edit: it looks like it's been committed anyway...

[The E]

Yes, it was tested, using both TBP (Inferno) and FS2. Nothing seemed to be obviously broken.

EDIT: Here's my latest version of the script:

Question, is it possible to set music for this? (that will keep playing in barracks for example?)

[The E]

In principle, yes. If you have TBP installed, you can check it out here: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,63941.0.html

The music thing, however, depends on code that currently is only present in my builds (Will post that later tonight). There is a command to play music, but none to stop it playing again in trunk which is a bit silly.

[shiv]

I don't have TBP now

Tried the mainhall script and i got attacked and killed by an offscreen enemy, then i lost the mission... >.>

I lost the mainhall :'(


I loled so hard.

[origin]

I tried out the script and it is very cool.  I loaded up my own screen and tried to load some music but the play back was terrible.  I used  - mh_audiohandle = ad.playMusic(" ").  I tried a .wav and an .ogg file they both sounded the same - very distorted.  Is there a certain form the the file needs to be or am I just completely off base here?  My experience in scripting is very limited.

[origin]

Well I got the music to play perfectly with playMusic().  But I cannot stop the music; it plays continuously - and if I try to use StopMusic() I get an error because I suppose that function is not in the 3.6.10.  So any ideas on what I can do from here.  I think I am talking to myself here but at least I haven't started answering myself.....

[Reprobator]

maybe, i did not tryed the script yet, i'm gonne try in few minutes but, can't you load the music via de the mission itself (with fred) ?
