how do you get text to display on the screen when you walk into a specific area (i.e. singleplayer)made with a script zone?
is there a script i can use?

i think there is one like that. I'm not at my PC now so the best i can do is this. in LE go to the bottom of the script list and look at the last 5-10 scripts, i think the one you want is there...


when i get home if i dont forget i'll see if i can find the script you want.
if not you can always create a DavesArrow
Attach "RMV_Triger_Zone" or "RMV_Triger_Entered??"(ID = DavesArrow ID)to your zone
Attach "JFW_Console_Input_On_Custom" to the DavesArrow

He doesn't mean test_cinematic, that is used to trigger cinematic text files, not to display text when entering a zone.

JFW_PPAGE_Zone

Player type (usually 2 (0 = Nod, 1 = GDI, 2 = any))
Message (Wheee!)

Attach to anything you want... i use script zones myself.

This will imitate a "private message" or "private page" from the Host.

JFW_TMSG_Zone

See Above.

This imitates as <nick> enters the zone, then <nick> says the message as if it were them. I.E. "zion250: Wheee!"

in your level edit directory for the mod you are making create a folder called "scripts" (obviously don't try to put the "" marks in...), in that folder place johnwills scripts.dll, scripts2.dll and bhs.dll.

Then to attatch the scripts open up level edit and select "mod" on the object you are trying to attatch the script to, then select the scripts tab (working from memory,might not be called that), then there will be a drop down menu somewhere, select that and there will be a plethora of scripts for you to attach, one of the scripts will be the afore mentioned.

If your using the regualr LE, go to your mod folder in the LE directroy. Make a folder called scripts. Go to your renegade directory. Copy scripts.dll and scripts2.dll, and paste them in your newly created scripts folder.

Note: directroy for mod folder: It will be in your renegade tools folder, then go the level edit folder. In there you will see all of your mod names in the formm of folders. Open the corresponding mod folder and that is where the scripts folder goes.

that is basically what i have done, but instead of extracting it to the ren directory and then copying to leveledit, i extracted it to both seperately. this wont make a difference will it?
