[V1.1] Spear: Return to Danger

[Sgt. Shivers]

did you see that.
i'm okay with this.
i hope see some weapons that can explode.
good luck!

I'll add a grenade weapon to the weapons mod.

There won't be any explosives in the level mod, but there will be a new weapon but I'm gonna keep it a secret.

No, it isn't the spear that's already been done.

Hey guys! While Sgt. Shivers is working on his mod you should check out my project.

Please don't advertise your project in other peoples' threads.

[Sgt. Shivers]

Only 2 more maps and a bit of MAPINFO editing left to go until the first 2 episodes are released!

[Captain J]

nice job, keep working!
also, i made some chaingun rotation for lost level bosses.
it's no need, but this is for you.

[Sgt. Shivers]

Thanks for showing intrest in the project! I might use the Axe's sprites if I get the time to implement it.

The Levels are all done, but I still need to find a way to make enter text and stuff.
If someone could tell me how to make a language lump it would help...

Ok, so it says to Pick a language code, put it in brackets, press enter and come up with a name, space, equals sign, then type the language for the code. After that, press enter, choose another language code and put it in brackets again, press enter, but you use the same name before the equals sign, do the space an equals sign again, and type the same message but in a different language.

Example from Wiki

Code: Select all

// This is an example LANGUAGE LUMP

[enu default] 
/* This section is both for American English (enu -> en US) and the default language
   (used if there are no available translations for the user's own language).        */

S_SUPERWEAPON = "Picked up the ultimate superweapon!";
NEEDMAUVEKEYD = "You need a mauve key to open this door.";
NEEDMAUVEKEYO = "You need a mauve key to activate this object.";

[fr]
/* And now a French translation for the above lines */

S_SUPERWEAPON = "La super-arme ultime !";
NEEDMAUVEKEYD = "Il vous faut la clef mauve pour ouvrir cette porte.";
NEEDMAUVEKEYO = "Il vous faut la clef mauve pour actionner cet objet.";

[de]
/* In German, too */
S_SUPERWEAPON = "Die maximale Überwaffe !";
// Oh no, what about the mauve key messages? They don't have a translation!
// Then they'll just use the English versions above since they're also defined as being the default.

Now that you've done this, you must include it in decorate. Take your name that has the correct message, so for example,
This example message is for picking up a shotgun

Code: Select all

S_SHOTPIKUP = "Shotgun has been picked up"; 

Then you place the dollar sign before it. So in your decorate, it should look like this:

Code: Select all

Actor shotty
{
...
WEAPON.(pickup message property) "$S_SHOTPIKUP

Hope it helped.

So I type that stuff in Decorate?

So I type that stuff in Decorate?

You type the translation (part with language codes and defining messages in each code) in its LANGUAGE lump, the actor part in decorate. You use the weapon pickupmessage property in your weapon in decorate. (the one where you take your language thing, stick a dollar sign before it in quotes)

Okay, so how do I create a language lump?

[ChronoSeth]

Uh... click the link and figure it out?

[Sgt. Shivers]

Okay, I got the LANGUAGE lump working, but I can't seem to make linebreaks in the entertext.
Anyone know how to get them to work? I tried something like this:
"line 1", "line 2", "line 3", "line 4", etc.
And it didn't work...

Did you add a semicolon (;) after ending the quotes?
