I didn't exactly know what to call this, but anyways, this is for people who need to change the cg_gun dvars automatically with scripts for whatever reason, but usually because of weapon modifications.

 

Example here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=27087

 

 

Anyways it's just a simple loop with a case statement:

 

// script made by JoeyB
// cg_gun dvars

#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\mp\_utility;
#include maps\mp\gametypes\_hud_util;

init()
{
level thread onPlayerConnect();
}

onPlayerConnect()
{
level endon( "game_ended" );
for(;
{
	level waittill( "connected", player );
	player thread onPlayerSpawned();
}
}

onPlayerSpawned()
{
self endon( "disconnect" );

for(;
{
	self waittill("spawned_player");

	self thread cgGunDvars();
}
}

cgGunDvars()
{
self endon("death");
for(;
{
	wait .05;
	if(!isDefined(self.pers["oldweap"]) || self.pers["oldweap"] != self getCurrentWeapon())
	{
		switch(self getCurrentWeapon())
		{
			case "cheytac_fmj_mp": // weapon name here
				self setClientDvar("cg_gun_z", 1.162); // can also change cg_gun_y or cg_gun_x on another line.
			break;

			default:
				self setClientDvar("cg_gun_z", 0);
		}
		self.pers["oldweap"] = self getCurrentWeapon();
	}
}
}

 

Just throw it in a .gsc in /scripts/ and it should work.

 

Hopefully helps a few people out.

Oh, good, someone who uses the /scripts/ system, not just simply modifying _rank.gsc and saying, HEY GUYS, MY MOD THAT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH EVERY OTHER MOD IN EXISTENCE UNLESS YOU SPEND AGES FIXING IT!

Well, before I was using _load.gsc and a folder I created \mods\, but NTA commented asking why I didn't use /scripts/ as I was unaware it was fixed (it previously didn't work -- or it was bugged).

We should really have more mod developers using /scripts/, as it allows for many more mods, and much more possibilities.

You seem to know quite a lot for a newcomer

Well, some mods actually have to modify some of the stock scripts to a certain extent (e.g. if you want class limiting without creating a new gametype etc.)...but i agree with your point mainly.

Some 'modders' seem to think that _rank.gsc is the holy bible.

Mainly because it has onPlayerSpawned/onPlayerConnect/etc. when in reality they could just thread a new gsc file and add it themselves lol.

But yeah modifying default game files is a must sometimes.

Yes, I'll accept that some mods do need to modify certain stock scripts, but that should be kept to a minimum, only when you need it.

joeyb - the first (probably not, but first /I've/ seen) one to actually use my system

 

i thank you.

 

(now use my fucking file system commands)

File system commands?

 

Also, no problem.
