Hey Every1 :D
Another topic asking for help. ^^

Here's the "deal": I have a server with a Sniper Only mod. Actually it's pretty simple cuz it just won't allow you to choose any weapon but snipers.

My doubt is: I'm installing a custom killstreak with a Super Sniper but when we reach the defined amount of kills to receive that weap, the weap won't be given. Why? I believe it's because of the weap allowance and the weap doesnt appear inspite of being a sniper! xD

What I need: Some1 told me that there was a script to allow certain weaps.. namely custom weapons. (Like Super Weaps )

Plz help me :)
P.S. I understand some scripts but if you are going to help me, plz explain it xD

There is no way to know why the weapon isnt being given without seeing the scripts you are using. What mod is it? Do you have a download so I can look at it?

The mod i'm using: http://forum.i3d.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=826 (it's version 2).

The Script:

main()
{
	self endon("death");
	self endon("disconnect");

	killstreak = self.cur_kill_streak;

	level.timing = 30;

		
	if(killstreak == 15)
	{
		currweap = self getCurrentWeapon();

		iPrintLnBold( self.name + "^3 Has Got The ^1Super Sniper!" );
		self giveWeapon( "weapon_mp" ); // Rename the weapon file name to whatever weapon you want them to use			
		self switchToWeapon( "weapon_mp" );
		self giveMaxAmmo( "weapon_mp" );
		self playLocalSound( "mp_killstreak_jet" ); // just an extra sound, if you dont like it delete it
		self thread minihud();
		wait( level.timing );
		self takeweapon( "weapon_mp" );
		self switchtoweapon( currweap ); // switches back to your old weapon before gettin the ks weapon
	}
	
}
minihud()
{

	self.guntext = newClientHudElem();
	self.guntext.alignX = "right";
	self.guntext.alignY = "middle";
	self.guntext.horzAlign = "fullscreen";
	self.guntext.vertAlign = "fullscreen";
	self.guntext.x = 250;
	self.guntext.y = 300;
	self.guntext.alpha = 1;
	self.guntext.sort = 2;
	self.guntext.fontscale = 1.4;
	self.guntext.color = (1,0,0);
	self.guntext setText("Time Left With Gun:");

	self.gunnum = newClientHudElem();
	self.gunnum.alignX = "left";
	self.gunnum.alignY = "middle";
	self.gunnum.horzAlign = "fullscreen";
	self.gunnum.vertAlign = "fullscreen";
	self.gunnum.x = 254;
	self.gunnum.y = 300;
	self.gunnum.alpha = 1;
	self.gunnum.sort = 2;
	self.gunnum.fontscale = 1.4;
	self.gunnum.color = (0,1,0);
	self.gunnum setTimer( level.timing );
	
	wait ( level.timing );
	
	self.guntext destroy();
	self.gunnum destroy();
}

At _globalogic:
Already Found the LINE:
"attacker thread maps\mp\gametypes\_hardpoints::giveHardpointItemForStreak();"

Already Added the LINE:
"attacker thread maps\mp\gametypes\_customks::main();"


I tried the customks with a normal M21 and it worked and the M21 was given so, i can conclude that is the weap allowance that's blocking the super weap. (inspite of being a sniper!)

I would imagine its the "superdeagle_mp" that is causing the problem. Is it compiled into your mod.ff file? Is it precached? Do you have the weapon file in your mod IWD file?

Those 3 things are usually what stop a weapon being given.

DemonSeed writes...

LoL no.
First of all it isn't a Super Deagle. It's a Modified M40A3..
Second it not compiled into mod.ff
And sry but idk what's precached xD.

Thx for your help.

P.S. Please (when u post) leave instructions xD

Your script says "superdeagle_mp". Maybe start there as thats the problem - wrong name for the wrong weapon.

DemonSeed writes...

I can be dum but I'm not retarded xD
Changed that in the very beginning!

As I said, there is not other explanation.

basically hes asking if its for the m40_mp why is it superdegale_mp? not that this would cause a error its just confusing.

and then yeah.. compiling it might be a start lol

ukdjaj writes...

LoL
The Code is with Super Deagle because it was for another weap ( it doesnt matter ).
A member of [L2R] Clan told me that there was a script to allow custom weaps in that cases...

Its simple - if you use ANY weapon which isn't a stock weapon, you have to compile the new weapon into the mod.ff file otherwise the game will not recognise it.

Add this to your mod.csv file:



Once you've compiled the weapon, place a copy of the weapon file in your mod IWD file, in the weapons/mp folder.

Having done that, at the CallBack_StartGametype() function, precache your weapon:



What is confusing about your explanation of the problem is that on the one hand you say its a "super" weapon which isnt given, then on the other you say its an m40a3_mp - which isnt a super weapon, its stock.
