I'm running momo5502's Welcome Message==>http://fourdeltaone.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=10822

 

I want to place the icon at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. The source for the placement looks like this:

//Icon
                       var icon = HudElem.CreateIcon(entity, config[3], 60, 60);
                       icon.SetPoint("CENTER", "CENTER", 0, 30);
                       icon.Alpha = 1;

 

Now am I right in thinking I need to change the ... 0, 30); to something like ... 1200, 944); ??

Then I want it to stay there throughout the duration of a given map but I don't know how to do that part either. :mrgreen:

 

Or maybe my guessing is completely off.

lol, you need to change CENTER to BOTTOMRIGHT and adjust it with 0 (x) and 30 (y)

Guessing completely off then...ha ha. 10-4, preciate it.

How do I make it not disappear?

 

After

//Hide everything after 7 seconds

Change

icon.Alpha = 0;

To

icon.Alpha = 1;

 

Maybe? I don't know how to right this stuff obviously and am only shooting in the dark...but fun learning.

I would just remove icon.Alpha = 0; and leave icon.Alpha = 1; as I believe that's what keeps it from disappearing.

Compiled and tested...works.

The "icon.Alpha = 1;" works.

Prolly right Joey, will try that on the next compile, after I get a working icon...thanks.

 

Now I just gotta figure out the proper icon names. or how to get them to show

As far as the icon files go. I know I have to use an existing .iwi file from the iwd's...but that doesn't mean that I can't change the image, right?

 

I mean, if I 'iwi2dds' and open in CS6, erase the existing file, replace it with something I want, like my avatar for instance. Then save it under the same name, convert it back and drop it into a new .iwd file like some sort of mod.....wouldn't that work? Much like the camo's or skins, the game will call the z_whatever.iwd last?

Got it working, thanks for the help guys.

I tried the above method and it still did not work the icon keeps showing up under the greeting I set center to bottom right and I adjusted 30 to 0 please help any ideas

 

//Icon

var icon = HudElem.CreateIcon(entity, config[3], 60, 60);

icon.SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, 0);

icon.Alpha = 1;

 

//Hide everything after 7 seconds

entity.AfterDelay(7000, Momo5502 => //Momo5502 as parameter^^

{

elem.SetText("");

text.SetText("");

text1.SetText("");

icon.Alpha = 1;

});

});

};

}

}

}

Hey Murdak, I'll try my best to help you, don't know if it'll do any good, but worth a shot.

PM me your source code (.cs) file and your .txt file

where you take the icons?

Instead of center use BOTTOM RIGHT, BOTTOM RIGHT

where you take the icons?

If you mean where are they located...their in iw_00.iwd and they all start with 'cardicon_'
