Show welcome message & popup message in game

[Coco-Nuts]

Hello there,

 

Firstly, I don't know if what I made is allowed by the dev team so if it's not allowed, I will removed this topic.

Also, I made a tutorial in this place cause there is not yet a Script section.

 

 

[Preview]

 

So, there are 2 files in this tutorial, 1 file called "welcome.sqf" show a welcome message.

It looks like this (clic on the picture to extend) :

 

 

 

The second file named "popup.sqf" show differents custom messages on the right side like this :

 

 

 

[installation]

 

Create an "init.sqf" file in your mission folder and put this code inside :

 

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\x\addons\a3_epoch_code\init\both_init.sqf";
if (isDedicated) then {
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\x\addons\a3_epoch_server\init\server_init.sqf";
} else {
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\x\addons\a3_epoch_code\init\client_init.sqf";
};

//Custom message
[] execVM "custom\welcome.sqf";
[] execVM "custom\popup.sqf"; 

Then, create a folder called custom in your mission.

Download and put these files inside :

 

welcome.sqf 

popup.sqf

You have to modify your script.txt file in your BattlEye folder.

Change the number 7 with the number 1 at lines 1 - 2 - 20 - 21

In your folder @EpochHive, you have to comment the line : {"\x\addons\a3_epoch_code\compile\setup\EPOCH_clientInit.sqf", "EPOCH_clientInit"},

in the epochAH.hpp file.

 

 

That's all :)

 

 

I DO NOT take credits about these 2 files, they come from Altis Server.

If this is allowed I will be doing it as well. I have no idea why there aren't server messages embedded into the mod itself for owners to edit and make custom. There's a bit of information I'd like to get out and not just through the initial welcome message.

Nevermind, :)

What does changing the line to 7 do? I know changing a 5 to a 1 disables kicks. I would prefer to add exceptions rather than disabling anticheat lines or alter the way they act as a blanket action on a particular line.

[Coco-Nuts]

I prefer too...

 

But I don't find yet what exception I have to put that's why this tutorial can be improve by the community :)

Can you show the exact lines that should have these numbers changed? I looked at my script.txt and those line numbers you mention don't seem correct.
