I am making a mod where when u hold use for 5 seconds it plants a TnT on the floor which will blow up in a matter of seconds, heres my script.

main()
{

thread PrecacheFx();
thread Playerconnect();

}

precacheFX()
{
	level._effect["large_vehicle_explosion"]	= loadfx ("fx/explosions/large_vehicle_explosion.efx");
}

Playerconnect()
{
while(1)
	{
	level waittill ("playerconnect", player);
	iprintln ("PlayerconnectDone"); //for debugging
	player thread PlantTnT();
	}
}

PlantTnT()
{
	self endon("disconnect");
	self.PLANTEDTnT = false;
	while(1)
	{
		wait 0.5;
		if(level.player useButtonPressed())
		{
			wait 5;
			TnT = spawn("xmodel/military_tntbomb",level.player.origin);
			iPrintln("PlantTnTComplete"); //For debugging
			self.PLANTEDTnT = true;
			TnT thread TnTExplo(self);
		}
	wait 0.5;

	}
}

TnTExplo(player)
{
	player endon("disconnect");
	wait 10;
	playfx (level._effect["large_vehicle_explosion"], self.origin);
	radiusdamage(self.origin, 500,500,50);
	self delete();
	self.PLANTEDTnT = false;
}

My script is not working at all, and i have tried everything that i have thought of to get it working, but still no luck.

Anyone know why?

ty in advance.

level.player
change to
self

TnT = spawn("xmodel/military_tntbomb",level.player.origin);

should be

TnT = spawn("script_model",self.origin);
TnT setmodel("xmodel/military_tntbomb");

probably, I've not done stuff like that in COD2

done what both of you have said and still no luck. anymore ideas?

add

precacheModel("xmodel/military_tntbomb");

just above the level._effect = blah thing

I have put that in just now and still no luck.... -_- lol

Ive just debugged it and i don't think call of duty 2 is loading the script up. This is the whole of my script:

main()
{
thread PrecacheFx();
thread Playerconnect();
}

precacheFX()
{
	precacheModel("xmodel/military_tntbomb");
	level._effect["large_vehicle_explosion"]	= loadfx ("fx/explosions/large_vehicle_explosion.efx");
}

Playerconnect()
{
while(1)
	{
	level waittill ("connect", player);
	iprintln ("PlayerconnectDone");
	player thread PlantTnT();
	}
}

PlantTnT()
{
	self endon("disconnect");
	self.PLANTEDTnT = false;
	while(1)
	{
		wait 0.5;
		if(self useButtonPressed())
		{
			wait 5;
			TnT = spawn("script_model",level.player.origin);
			TnT setmodel("xmodel/military_tntbomb");

			iPrintln("PlantTnTComplete");
			self.PLANTEDTnT = true;
			TnT thread TnTExplo(self);
		}
	wait 0.5;

	}
}

TnTExplo(player)
{
	player endon("disconnect");
	wait 10;
	playfx (level._effect["large_vehicle_explosion"], self.origin);
	radiusdamage(self.origin, 500,500,50);
	self delete();
	self.PLANTEDTnT = false;
}

And this is the only thing in my iwd file. is there something else which should be in the iwd file with it?

you didnt change level.player.origin to self.origin where u spawn the model

also, in TnTExplo(player) change
self.PLANTEDTnT
to
player.PLANTEDTnT

Still not workin' :(

have you threaded the script from tdm.gsc etc @ Startgametype?

 thread maps\mp\gametypes\blablascript.gsc::main;

thread maps\mp\gametypes\blablascript::main();
