Hey Ply, would it be possible for you to cut out the menu in your mod so that when its all build it goes straight into the game? And if you cant do it could you release one of the source code of a newer version of you mod so that we can cut out the menu our selves. I recon if this could be done then it would mean that incorperating FPSC with DBPro it would look soooooo much better and more profesional

Wow.

That idea has been made a while ago. (sorry if I sound harsh but...)

You can do this with Stock engine too.

I thought of that a while back but now i have made so many scripts which require the second newest plys mod and if i use the stock engine none of them will work... The scripts cant be rewritten in the stock version either...

Open up the title page's fpi file and alter that so that i instantly does what the "New Game" button does.

Ok ive had a go at the manipulation and have changed this:

+ Code Snippet

;AIScript from Wizard
;Header
desc          = Title Page Wizard
;Script
:state=0:music=audiobankmusicgenerictitle.wav
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=10,hudimage=languagebankenglishgamecorebackdropsbasicgamemenu.tga,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=45,hudimage=languagebankenglishgamecorebackdropsbasicnewgame.tga,hudtype=1,hudmake=button
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=55,hudimage=languagebankenglishgamecorebackdropsbasicloadgame.tga,hudtype=2,hudmake=button
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=65,hudimage=languagebankenglishgamecorebackdropsbasicexitgame.tga,hudtype=5,hudmake=button
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimage=gamecorehudspointer.tga,hudmake=pointer
:state=0:state=2
:state=2:backdrop=gamecorebackdropsbasicgamecomplete_background.jpg
:state=2,hudselectionmade=1:destroy
:state=2,hudselectionmade=5:quitgame,destroy
:state=2,hudselectionmade=2:loadgame

To

+ Code Snippet

;AIScript from Wizard
;Header
desc          = Title Page Wizard
;Script
:state=0:hudselectionmade=1:destroy

For some reason it all crashes though

Any help anyone????

With a second edit:

+ Code Snippet

;AIScript from Wizard
;Header
desc          = Title Page Wizard
;Script
:state=0:hudselectionmade=1:destroy

It goes straigh into the game but misses out the loading screen which wouldnt be so bad but if i press ESC it exits the wjhole game

Why is it so complex

Script lines need TWO colons and ONLY two colons. You have three there.

Remember, the first colon is basically saying "IF" and the second colon is saying "THEN".

You want your script to say:
IF state=0 THEN destroy

This is not the best, nor logical way to approach it, however.

In order for menus in FPSC to work, it NEEDS to load that pointer HUD (You see the line that says "hudmake=pointer"? That's the one I'm talking about)
And it may also be a good thing to keep the music line in there for old times sake.

Nope it hasnt made any difference to the outcome... This what i made:

+ Code Snippet

;AIScript from Wizard
;Header
desc          = Title Page Wizard
;Script
:state=0:music=audiobank\music\generic\title.wav
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=50,hudimage=gamecore\huds\pointer.tga,hudmake=pointer
:state=0:destroy

Would it not be easier for you to release an edited version of your MOD (and include a command which creates a file when you enter the victory screen so that DBPro can tell if you have completed it)?

It might be easier for you if I did that, but I am currently busy with other modifications.
