What? Really?! I'll have to try this later!

 

Give me the script!  :D

LOL, I just noticed that I forgot to put in the download link xD

That is what I get when I'm so into the whole system that it becomes natural and tend to forget the details.

[DirtySanchez]

Haha, you got a lot of work smashed into our big bundle!

We understand

Yep been trying to figure that one out lately, I guess they really take the like votes seriously ;)

I love this, however I can just see someone getting killed when they log in waiting for the camera to come into proper perspective. Have you done anything to manage that in the script?

Honestly this script is meant for servers that do not have to worry about that. So if you do worry about it for your server, then this is probably not the script you are looking for. And where does the need for protection stop? for example: if the player has "god mode" until the camera is done, and someone spots the player whilst waiting for the camera, he/she can just hide, wait until the player moves and then shoot him. And it does not stop there because if you make them have "god mode" for a longer time, then it would be unfair if the player itself can shoot which equals that some sort of shoot protection script needs to come in too. And you know what? It all ends in the same spot: when the player/attacker can kill eachother again.

 

And that, is the world of PvP for you.

Actually when I asked if there was a way of dealing with this I was referring to the camera doing it's affect before the player is actually rendered into the world for other players. And I don't know how you would define "server's where you don't have to worry about that" since a new player can come on my server anytime. You can't control what "style" of player comes on, unless it's a script enforced PVP server, however even if that were the case I have had AI waiting to gank me the moment my screen went from loading to in.

It's called PvE servers and choosing a safe spot to logout.

[happydayz]

just add in a line like this at the start of the script:

 

// ------------------ this makes the player invincible on spawn

player allowDamage false;

 

 

 

 

 

and then at the end add in something like this:

 

// ------------------ wait 10 seconds or whatever you want it to wait

uisleep 10;
 

// ------------------ this makes the player able to die again

player allowDamage true;

[IT07]

BE does not like that lol. Better to make some sort of client-to-server thing.

[kludgeDev]

     

But if I don't need the whole package, like becoming this script separately?

Just read the instructions

A fag in your instructions, everything is also clear in the instructions to the ISS, dumped everything in a pile will understand, fuck you. :angry:

[IT07]

@kludgeDev: I like you too. When I have the time I will try to improve the instructions.

link it is down 404 error pls reup 

[Toby77]

Verry nice! Well done! +Rep, Its working like a charm, Loading ingame after the main loading screen can cause some delays, This is because the use of a statusbar, He-Man has posted a smaller status bar wich does increasingly speed up that second de-layyed loading screen.

Also make sure you have listing the correct folder for each of the below

 

file = "scarCODE\introCredits";

file = "scarCODE\introCam";

that's it enjoy

Thank you, newbie in server setup, then not always easy to understand all components and there locations/relations.

Edit : Working perfectly.
