You can do it the easy way, with an FPI Script.
Just use a Hud to display it, and make the hud the same size as the screen and center it.

If you want rolling credits then you can use an AVI file.
With this method you can use a third party utility to create your AVI movie then import it into FPSC.
The import is a simple Action in an FPI Script. (not hard)
It does have a bug though. The player won't be able to do a New Game to start again.


There are many ways to do it.
I use the Hud method with multiple Huds.
The FPI Script can be a great substitute for the AVI bug.
You have music, sounds, and even fadeouts if you want with the Actions available.
I prefer FPI Scripts to the AVI method.


I am working now on getting crude animation with them using multiple huds.
The plan is to animate the basic shapes for pronunciation for 2 mouths. (1 male and 1 female)
Then, they will be overlaid over various character faced backgrounds.
One set of mouth animation could be re-used for an infinite number of characters.
No, this is not my idea. Ray Harryhausen invented it when creating his "Mother Goose" series of animation.
Only he used whole facial expressions with multiple expressions for each character.
That was all done in still frame photography then though.
Remember Speed Racer? They used Ray's method too.
I want to use Japanese styled art for the characters and hopefully their market will like it.
This was an idea to get around that AVI bug for my Cut Scenes, but it can be used for more.

I'm getting way off the topic of your question.
Use an FPI Script is may advice like I suggested back at the top.
It's a quick and easy method.

it is only displayed to you, or the person with that info, so unless you are going to be malicious to your self, I cant see how it can do any harm.

Not sure he can, but just let me say, I run a Forum and Moderate another, in both cases I can see all the members IP addresses, not sure if I can do much with this knowledge, unless my intention was to be Malicious, which I am not, so the short answer is...should not be a problem, unless CE wants to be a bad boy, and then you may have a good idea where the attack came from.
Does this make sense?

Dude its an Environment Variable in your web browser.
You can put a script on any webpage and get that info. (anyone can)
I always read it in my cgi scripts too, so I can log who did what when.
It's not a secret, or hard to get.

Here's a PHP example...

<?php echo $REMOTE_ADDR; ?>

...that just displays it and does not log anything.

Here's the whole thing as a webpage, but you save it with a PHP extension and not HTM.



Of course you will have to upload it to a server that is PHP compatible for it to work.

Have Fun!

Localhost 127.0.0.1

The point of doing that was what Merranvo?
You should know better than to say 127.0.0.1 as an outside IP even as a joke/sarcastic sense.

Some people just like to spam.

tschwarz has that as his location... this whole thread has gone to shreads (now it is about IP's, ip stealling, ip sigs, IP info) so my post is not exactally spam.


Well, conjured is right in the FPI scripts, or you can use menu monster, the difference? Menu Monster is a tad more flexable and doesn't require you to include jpgs for txt...
Well, I am biased. I made the program...
