Ok, this is bothering me. I have a custom HUD that I'm using, yet I cannot get it to display. The specifics:

I am using v118 on Windows Vista.

I have a HUD called ForandonHoldObjectives saved as both DDS and TGA file types in languagebank\english\gamecore\huds\cots, and I've got the script that is supposed to display the hud in scriptbank\curse of the sarinaanen. The script:



I've taken the script and placed it in a trigger zone, and I go to test the level. And the script should work, right? Well, it doesn't. Nothing displays. NOTHING.

I've searched and searched, and the script should function properly. But it doesn't. Anybody know why?

This is a scripting issue and should have been posted in the script section.

Try this:



Ensure that the file is in fact in the correct path as specified in the first line of the script. If it still does not work, then a couple of the issues might be:

1. You have the DDS and the TGA together in the same folder. Although you are pointing to the TGA, it will use the DDS and it might be possible that something is wrong with the DDS file. Try to change the hud to a png, then change the script line to use .png at the end of the name.

2. There is an issue with the actual graphic hud and you might need to reconstruct it.

Again you are showing the hud with scancodekeypressed=24 at state=1 and immediately removing it with scancodekeypressed=24 at state=2.
Your showing it again when going back to state=1 but its all happening so fast you dont see it all.
This seems to be a common mistake which I have seen before.

Blackfox script will work for you but with only half a second I reckon it might still be too short a timer, since its something to be read I think you could increase it to at least three seconds.

Awesome! Its one of those threads.

Yeah, I thought I had posted this in the scripts section, but I was tired last night when I posted so I put this in the wrong spot. Totally my bad.

And after seeing the scripts given, I realized that I made the same mistake now that I did the first time I tried to do this a few years ago, but thanks to being away for so long I forgot about my mistake. Again, my bad.

I applied the given script and modified it for my needs, and it works just fine now. Thank you all for your help!

Just out of curiosity, whose script worked, or did both do the job?

actually...neither. I ended up finding the old thread from 4 years ago where I asked a similar question and got the script in there from xplosys.

What is this, a competition? LOL

The script I gave was an example of how to insert a timer when displaying huds. And yes it works just as it should.
