Welcome Server Messages?

[Disturbed2015]

This is my welcome message
 

 

/* *********************************************************************** */

 

/* =======================================================================

/* SCRIPT NAME: Server Intro Credits Script by IT07

/* SCRIPT VERSION: v1.3.5 BETA

/* Credits for original script: Bohemia Interactive http://bistudio.com

/* =======================================================================

 

/* *********************************************************************** */

 

// ========== SCRIPT CONFIG ============

 

_onScreenTime = 10; //how long one role should stay on screen. Use value from 0 to 10 where 0 is almost instant transition to next role 

//NOTE: Above value is not in seconds!

 

// ==== HOW TO CUSTOMIZE THE CREDITS ===

// If you want more or less credits on the screen, you have to add/remove roles.

// Watch out though, you need to make sure BOTH role lists match eachother in terms of amount.

// Just take a good look at the _role1 and the rest and you will see what I mean.

 

// For further explanation of it all, I included some info in the code.

 

// == HOW TO CUSTOMIZE THE COLOR OF CREDITS ==

// Find line **** and look for: color='#f2cb0b'

// The numbers and letters between the 2 '' is the HTML color code for a certain yellow.

// If you want to change the color of the text, search on google for HTML color codes and pick the one your like.

// Then, replace the existing color code for the code you would like to use instead. Don't forget the # in front of it.

// HTML Color Codes Examples:

// #FFFFFF (white)

// #000000 (black) No idea why you would want black, but whatever

// #C80000 (red)

// #009FCF (light-blue)

// #31C300 (Razer Green)

// #FF8501 (orange)

// Had a timing issue with freindlies being set so I moved into here which is executed after the flayer is in game.

 

I have it in a custom folder.  

 

Line:

[] execVM "don\Server_WelcomeCredits.sqf";

 

 And seen somehwere on the forums about

InfiStar - /*  Use cut-scene ?       */ _UCS =  true; /* true or false */ /* dynamicText ~ often colored, animated or used in credits */

 

I have CutScene on and the welcome credits still aren't working. Or did I miss something?

Change these type of lines : 

_role8names = ["No PVP","No Stealing","No Trespassing at Bases","No Hacking","No Cheating","No Griefing","No Profanity","No Mass Building or Vehicle Destruction!"];

to : 

_role8names = ["No PVP,No Stealing,No Trespassing at Bases,No Hacking,No Cheating,No Griefing,No Profanity,No Mass Building or Vehicle Destruction!"];

Too many """"""""""""". See if that helps.

[Halvhjearne]

Too many """"""""""""". See if that helps.

 

that would make no diffrence at all ... most likely he has another error somewhere

That's not how any of this works mate. An array consists of elements, each element was a string._array = ["string","string2","string3"]; is correct syntax. What you did is created array with single string element... Might as well get rid of both square brackets and commas as they would make no difference.

 

@Disturbed2015:

Get yourself SQF syntax higlighter for notepad++. It will help you pin down issues by adding colors to all variables and values. I loaded your script and right away colors went batshit crazy.

You were missing few quotation marks as you were editing file, be more careful:

_role1names = ["Disturbed Gaming]; //missing " from element

_role7names = ["Service Points with Rearm+","More To Come Soon""]; // extra " at the end

Rest of the script looks fine.

I use Notepad++, didn't know about the SQF Syntax highlight, I'll get that. And thanks

Here is another welcome credits you can use. I did not make this. Credit goes to the real maker.

 

Server_WelcomeCredits.sqf

private ["_messages", "_timeout"];


waitUntil { alive player };
sleep 2;
waituntil {!isnull (finddisplay 46)};
sleep 10; //Wait in seconds before the credits start after player loads into the game


_messages = [
        ["Welcome To", "Disturbed Gaming<br />"+(name player)],
        ["Admins", "Joe<br />Mr.GoodTrust<br />Rob<br />Stallem<br />Digi"],
        ["Teamspeak", "Coming Soon!"],

{
        private ["_title", "_content", "_titleText"];
        sleep 2;
        _title = _x select 0;
        _content = _x select 1;
        _titleText = format[("<t font='TahomaB' size='0.50' color='#a81e13' align='right' shadow='1' shadowColor='#000000'>%1</t><br /><t shadow='1'shadowColor='#000000' font='TahomaB' size='0.60' color='#FFFFFF' align='right'>%2</t>"), _title, _content];
        [
                _titleText,
                [safezoneX + safezoneW - 0.8,0.50],     //DEFAULT: 0.5,0.35
                [safezoneY + safezoneH - 0.8,0.7],      //DEFAULT: 0.8,0.7
                _timeout,

        ] spawn BIS_fnc_dynamicText;
        sleep (_timeout * 1.1);
} forEach _messages; 

 

Bottom of the init.sqf or if you got ESS put at the bottom of start.sqf

execVM "Path\To\Server_WelcomeCredits.sqf";

I think they look a lot better. Welcomes them with there name and easier to use i think.

[Disturbed2015]

Very nice :D 

[raymix]

Increase amount in sleep in that script (third one)
