Police Sirens


Recommended Posts

Sukkaed,

As always outstanding script! Nice work!

Do you think it would be possible to get the lights on time to work or isn´t in the Epoch files?

Thanks for the script :)!

Thanks :)

 

What you mean with "get the lights on time to work"? Like those actual light bars in police car?

Damn sorry I ment on TOP :P Yes I mean those actual light bars on top. I thought there maybe is a function to get them to work.

Or something like this would be cool:

Ford-Explorer-Police-Interceptor-SUV-fro

 

but this would need the clients to download it too. So it will be a dream forever :P

Here is my siren script with lights if someone wants to make it better. Red and blue lights are limited only to police car, because of position of lights.

 

Replace your sirens_on.sqf with this:

_vehicle = vehicle player;
_inVehicle = (_vehicle != player);

_lightRed =
{
	_redLight = "#lightpoint" createVehicle (getPos _vehicle); 
	_redLight setLightBrightness 0.03;	
	_redLight setLightAmbient [ 0.5, 0, 0 ]; 
	_redLight setLightColor [0.77,0.05,0.23]; 
	_redLight lightAttachObject [_vehicle, [1, 0, 1.0]];
	sleep 0.13;
	deleteVehicle _redLight;
	sleep 0.13;
};
_lightBlue =
{
	_blueLight = "#lightpoint" createVehicle (getPos _vehicle); 
	_blueLight setLightBrightness 0.03;
	_blueLight setLightAmbient [ 0, 0, 0.5 ]; 
	_blueLight setLightColor [0,0,1.0]; 
	_blueLight lightAttachObject [_vehicle, [-1, 0, 1.0]];
	sleep 0.13;
	deleteVehicle _blueLight;
	sleep 0.13;
};

if (isnil ("sirensOn")) then {
    sirensOn = 0;
};
If (!_inVehicle) then {
    sirensOn = 0;
};
if (sirensOn == 0) then {
    sirensOn = 1;
    cutText ["Sirens ON!","PLAIN DOWN"];
};
while {sirensOn == 1} do {
	If (_inVehicle and (driver _vehicle == player)) then {
		_nul = [objNull, _vehicle, rSAY, "siren", 120] call RE;
		[_vehicle, 200, true, (getPosATL _vehicle)] spawn player_alertZombies;
			if(_vehicle isKindOf "policecar") then {
				for "_i" from 1 to 10 do {
					call _lightRed;
					call _lightBlue;
				};
					} else {
						for "_i" from 1 to 12 do {
						player action ["lightOn", _vehicle];
						sleep 0.2;
						player action ["lightOff", _vehicle];
						sleep 0.2;
					};
				sleep 0.2;
			};
		} else {
		sirensOn = 0;
	};
};

Overlapped some of the code so you could see if I missed a space or anything!

I am new to the Epoch servers. I have had an origins server for a year now and you know what that is like. You just play, no control at all. So I am learning quickly that running an epoch server you spend more time learning then playing.

This was so easy to install. I did have a little help from Affraid

Thank you for your work.

Hmmm i want that red and blue lights on the SUV :D Wouldn´t i be cool if there are some on the rear mirror? like in that photo i posted ?

 

You could play around with positioning of lightpoints.

_blueLight lightAttachObject [_vehicle, [X, Y, Z]];

Yeah I am going to do that!

Thanks :)

Is it possible to make the lights global? By now they are only local when I turn them on.

 

You're right, it is local. I would thought that createvehicle makes it global. Maybe using puplicvariableserver makes it global. Have to try that.

Hey Sukkaed,

 

I've been looking for something like this for ages, thanks! I've got a slight problem though. The flashing lights for vehicles work fine, but the siren audio loop doesn't work for me. Now, I turned the description.ext file into an sqf format so I could place the script in, but now that I've converted it back to an ext file, when I log into the server I get a "Wait for Host" error (everyone who logs in does) and if I leave it as an sqf file, the siren doesn't work. Is there anything you'd suggest?

 

Thanks in advance,

Angel

hey,

what dou you mean by root folder? The folder with the init.sqf in it?

 

like instance....../Scripts/sirens....

 

It won´t work for me. The option for sirens on won´t come up.

 

I think this is the same error that sniper got

 

Cheers 

Exo
