Edit Dialog
Hey guys,
Not too sure if I have the right area to ask this.... I am relatively new at map making and I have a dialog question. I have created an event to pick up a biocase and as a result sets off an explosive device (a booby trap) to destroy a nearby armory. When the device detonates, I want a message like, "Your ammo is gone! Make every shot count!" How do I use the dialog editor to display a text message on the HUD? Regards J

bounce to your wac list and write this
if SSNdead(put here the social security number of thing that died) text("Your ammo is gone!") endif if chain(5) and never() then text("Make every shot count!") endif merry xames "M" |

Mermite,
Thanks for the rapid response. (Hey, for us in Australia, a response in less than a day is quick!) I will give it a bash and let you know how it went. Have a great Xmas and an even better New Year. J

Mermite, he was referring to making a map for Land Warrior.
Any Nova game before Black Hawk Down does not have nor use .WAC for dialog.

Mermite,
I think ShadowZ may be right. Created a .WAC file, as per your instructions, but unfortunately, nothing. Even tried with the "/d" on the DFLW shortcut. Oh well. It was worth the attempt. I think I will just have to settle for an area trigger and wave list. Thanks for all your help anyway. Much appreciated. Regards J

I remember stuff but vaguely. I think LW uses a .bin file for text strings and they may be outputted using the events in the MED. Would have to look at LW's .pff structure (and I don't have LW installed or if I even have the install still).

Johnno, this is for Land Warrior, correct? I think you or someone else asked the same question on DF Barracks or DF Reload.

Shadowz is right, might be worth trowling the game wav list to find the right sound files
as an alternative "M" |

ShadowZ,
Yes. DFLW is correct. I will search DF Barracks and Reload. Mermite, I will try the stock sounds, but I would prefer to add a chuckle sound effect.... I am going out on a limb here and guessing that a chuckle sound effect will NOT be amongst the stock sounds...?? Thanks guys Regards J
