Opening / End Credits Script?

[Legacy_BortSonofBort]

               

Hi All,

 

Does anyone know of a very simple text-oriented script that can function as an opening / end credits text screen? I'm really just looking to have simple white text (variable size would be nice) on a black backdrop. Ideally, this script would be put into either an OnEntry call, or an OnClick call.

make an invisible placeable and write the text into description, then assign player to examine the placeable

 

you might want to try to apply FadeToBlack but I dont know whether that doesnt make the examine window to disappear, but worth a try

               This, maybe:

You'd need to convert your credits to tga, using it to override the tga provided.

Or this:

This second option seems the most appropriate for my module, as no custom content/haks are needed.

 

Unfortunately, I can seem to get it to work.

 

- I copied the code into a new script called, "bh_writing".

- I created an InvisibleObject (that is not static) with a unique tag called "testwriting", that also has a local "bWall" integer set to "1" (and have tried "0"), as well as a string variable called "text1".

- I put ExecuteScript("bh_writing", GetObjectByTag("testwriting")); in my area "OnEnter" event.

 

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be working.

 

Has any tried using this script that can verify it functions properly?

because it needs custom hak, the only no-.hak way is what I suggested

Unfortunate all-around. But thanks for your help, Shadooow.

It requires CEP, as the project title might suggest. I've updated the page with a link to make that clearer.

Players are very used to haks, large and small, so it's not really a big decision to add one, if it makes your module brighter.

Part of the challenge I provided myself back in 2003 was to design my module without any custom content. Since my quest to re-release this module started three or four months ago, I figured to stick with that principle.

 

Much thanks for the help, though.
