Ok...how would I make the orb.dts a dis file so I could use it in editor? Or what about a sword? I've seen this before, maybe on Unique RPG, where they had a table with weps on it...you couldnt pick em up though. I just want to make a dis that looks like an orb.

You have to register the object in order to use it in the map editor.
MissionRegObject( RPGStuff, Orb); should do it. Just look through the MissionReg.cs (?) file for examples.

Oh my goodness! It's Susan! I remember you from PK. Speaking of, I updated the site....www.PK-Palace.cjb.net...Anyways....

I did add that into registeruserobjects.cs. I'm using mappers mod. If I add it to missonreg.cs in the rpg folder, then run rpg, will it work? Me confused.... :oops:

Not familiar with Mappers mod.
MissionRegObject is the one you want to use. if you are editing the map that is in the RP folder, then use the missionreg.cs in the rpg folder. Otherwise, move the dts of the object, and the missionreg.cs to whatever folder that has the map file you are using.

Last time I tried something like that, I ended up with broadswords spinning around, (like reapir packs in normal tribes) not what I was going for, but it brought about some interesting ideas for a DM or rpg mission game play.

Actually, ...You'd have have to edit the server files, but you could make an admin command like "#create claymore name" And that spawns a claymore, that will keep reappearing and acting as a normal item until he/she types "#delete name" That would make some pretty nice quests. Where everyone goes in naked, and you have to find your own weapons to survive. (Or stick to spells)
Damnit, I started thinking again.

Er, well...I'm working on a LOTR RPG map. And I wanted the orb to be permanent. And, if the map is in the base\missions folder (where else) I'd just but orb.dts in the base folder? Or in the mappers folder? We'll, I'll figure it out. Thanks for the help.

Oh, one last thing--if I did this, would the map still be server-side? Or would you have to dl it?

As long as you don't create a new *.dts or *.dis then you should be fine with server-side. You said yourself you've played Urpg, and there wasn't a download for it.

Yea, I looked for a 'missionregobject' or whatever it's called, didn't find it. Where is it located? Is it in a .vol?

Hersh · « **Reply #8 on:** November 5, 2003 03:28 am CST »

registerUserObjects.cs
from scripts.vol

Ah, yes, that's what I thought you meant. Anyways, did that a while ago, no luck.
