Add a custom image to the spawn box

[KingRaymond795]

hmmm, unless I did something incorrectly, i got the following kick:

 

createvehicle #0 "SeaGull"

so weird.. any one else?

I also see the building of the textures happening, but nothing displays: 

 

17:03:37 "Epoch: Loading teleports and static props"
17:03:37 "[DebugPic]: build texture @ Chernarus [4ba49830# 1061664: usertexture10m.p3d,[1024.62,2033.29,6.53235]] texture '0'"

looks like the pictures arent loaded, try to repack your pbo and try again ... also make sure the picture is saved correctly, dont use windows paint, use gimp or adobe

[Demi]

Worked beautifully - thanks!

[Davep122]

With Method 2 do you still need to edit the mission.sqm?

 

Thanks

Dave

 

 

Sorry, I must of had a typo in the first mission.sqm edit. So yep you do need the mission.sqm edit

Realy?

 

does it automaticly spawn in the spawnbox?

How come ? :D

this spawns one on each side of the spawnbox, obviusly you need to change the paths to your pictures and so on.

place the map custom in epoch.australia.pbo with the picture in it,

and also the Debugpic.sqf in the epoch.australia.pbo right?

 

see screenshot.

Eey Halv,

 

I see that it loads the image.jpg cuz the mission file is bigger when join the server but i don't see the picture?

Do you know whats happening?

Nothing in the rpt files.

most likely one of these 3:

1. you did not install it correctly.
2. you did not pack your mission or
3. the image is corrupt.

but we cant know without you showing your log files or anything.

 

please refrain from sending me pm's with questions like this .. expecially when you already posted here about it (not to mention, you didnt even wait a full 2min before sending a pm).

 

its always better to write in a thread so others can see and learn from your mistake(s).

[chrisa]

yup thats true.

I will look into it.

 

What i did is,

 

made a .sqf file with notepad and insert the tekst and called it Debugpic.sqf   https://gyazo.com/ec06accc8585f87452bdfebb9a089cd4

made a map called custom and placed inside the mission .pbo                       https://gyazo.com/8bd1921d5e6c4e13cab1f72c2ef2d17a

placed the .jpg file into the custom map and call it problemsolving.jpg             https://gyazo.com/73953d8e508a2bc574ffa569367b195b 

 

Is this correct sir?

 

Thnx

[chrisa]

ok it works.

diddnt know i must add a line to the init file till i go to the original post.

 

so what must i do to have an other picture on the other side of the wall?

send me a link where i can easy donate you some money for your help and work.

 

thnx

[__FLYERS__]

thx :)

[scrote]

anyone have any idea what the coords would be for the esseker map ? 

[LaGrenouille]

Hello,
I'm new and i try to apply this method.
Unfortunately when I use MakePbo for packing the mission, it tells me the following error:
decription.ext: Line 15 true and false do not exist
here is a screenshot in Notepad++ of the description.ext i use, as you can see all there.
What have I missed? Can i Pboed anyway ?

Another question is :

I use the install server side pack of Epoch from Epoch.com, i unPbo it, but in the  mission.sqf i see no : "Debug_static_F" nowhere.  ??

And Halvhjearne  say : now anyone can install this on any epoch supported map (or any map, if there is a "Debug_static_F") ... ;)

Again what have i missed? Did this method will work for me? and if yes how?

Thank you in advance for your help.

[Heinz]

I'm confused. It does not work for me.
I am so naughty and show what I have done.

 

Step 1: Add this to your mission.sqm directly above "class Markers"

I have no class Markers. All I have is highlighted in green

Step 2: 

1. Create a file called: Debugpic.sqf

2. Paste this code inside.

3. save and upload to mission file.

4. add image file "custom\problemsolving.jpg" or rename.

Ok, I've found others away. Works good for me with the script "Custom Spawn Dialog with Gear & HALO Selection, moving map, credits, custom spawns and more ..."

 

thx
