Hi.Can I launch the exe with parameters?
Like this:
FPSC game.exe-name = TGSlp
or I can control different menu externally, and enter the name automatically, or automatically join to press play?
Thank you.
Greetings from Germany, Rene

@TGSlp :- Not 100% sure what you trying to do what parameters are you trying to change ?

Im guessing you wanting to use this for online multipayer game the only thing I can think of is you trying to add a chat with phpfreechat as that has parameters that you can change but it could be any program.

Maybe explain a bit more what you want to do ?

To my knowledge, FPSC does not accept parameters. If that is so, you would have to mod the source to accept and use those parameters.

I think I'm having a blond moment here lol.

If you wanting to use parameters in FPSC itself then this is not possible with out a source mod but I sort of read your thread like you was using a 3rd party app where you could tell the app to launch fpsc.exe.

But I think I'm on the wrong track here I need sleep looking at the source code to long.

You trying to make a login system for online player or login system just for a single player.

Maybe someone can understand better than me what you trying to do.

It's nice to see people still using s4mod I'm glad you like it.

To me it sounds like your mod has a "name" that is displayed and he want to have the "name" that is displayed pulled/read from a text file. That's how i read it, although what "name textfield" he is referring to in your mod I am not too clear on. Unless your mod does not display a "name", the only other thing I can think of is the player name while in multiplayer.

It's been a while since we've used your mod. I will have to load it in and see just what the hype is all about.


There's no problem that can't be solved without applying a little scripting.

I will try it to explain again

So.

I want to make a multiplayer game.
Normally, you must type in your name before you can play.
If you have done this, other Player see you with this name.

I want to make a loginsystem for my game.

So i would like to type in the name in my program (Made in visual basic), and then automaticly in the game, so the user cant change the name, and allways have the same name.
So i thought, i can remove the "Change name" button in menu, and let my program type in the name hidden, or via parameters.

I hope you can understand!

Regards again - TGS

So I was slightly close. He wants the multiplayer name to be entered via his app and not through the engine, but have the engine read the name from a text file instead. So if he enters "Fred" in his login interface, it writes it to a text file, then the mod reads it and that is the name displayed.

Yes or direct in the game and not so unsafe via a textfile.

Is it possible?

Maybe via handles?

Thanks

Yeah he wants something like this :- http://main.fpscip.com/

So you can login and the name comes up instead of the normal way.

Okay..

I have it!

So i can Type in the Name from my App into the Game hidden:

Quote: " Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32.dll" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal wMsg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByVal lParam As Integer) As Integer

Private Const WM_CHAR As Integer = &H102
Private Const ENTER As Integer = 13
Private Const TAB As Integer = 9

Private ID As String = "TEST"

Private sroHwnd As IntPtr = Nothing

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

sroHwnd = Process.GetProcessesByName("FPSC Game")(0).MainWindowHandle

For x As Integer = 0 To ID.Length - 1
SendMessage(sroHwnd, WM_CHAR, AscW(ID(x)), 0)
Next

End Sub"


Now i must know, how to delete the "Change Name" button in menu!

there is an instructions.txt included.

you can replace the arenapage.fpi with this:


this would bypass the name entry screen and go straight to the game

@TGSlp :- Yes you can edit all the .fpi's and ini after the game is built.

You can change anything in the built.

Are you looking at have your program put the idplayer and it bypass the menu all together.

I think team death match went into the source since version 119, I may be inaccurate in that, but I know it is part of current versions of FPSC.

Teamdeathmatch is in fpsc v1.20 but many people still use s4mod for the multiplayer and single game due to speed and how stable it is.

At the end of the day you got to use the version that suits you.

If you wanting to be able to change the name in the setup so you can use a 3rd party app I might add it to s4mod if I get time and update it but it all depends how may people use the mod still.
