hud color for tdm mission

[scottieb 1]

gday guys just a quick one need to make the blufor blue in color and the opfor red in color for this hint box on a tdm mission im working on.

at the moment its just the standard color, brown background and white writing

class Item2

{

position[]={3744.906,0.44344097,2592.4656};

a=0;

b=0;

angle=-1.38056;

repeating=1;

age="UNKNOWN";

expCond="showscore";

expActiv="hint format [""BLUFOR: %1\n\nOPFOR: %2"", wscore, escore]; showscore = false";

class Effects

{

};

would also like to make the same color changes with this

TitleText [format["BLUFOR: %1\n\nOPFOR: %2", wscore, escore], "plain", 1]

ps, any way on changing the color of the hint box background also?

I can normally figure stuff out myself with many hours of research but i just cant seem to make sense of all the special characters and where they start and stop.

I very much appreciate you guys taking the time.

thanks.

hint format ["BLUFOR: %1/50\n\nOPFOR: %2/50", wscore, escore];

TitleText [format["BLUFOR: %1\n\nOPFOR: %2", wscore, escore], "plain", 1]

hey Zonekiller, thanks for pointing me there, i had a bit of a look on there before but just couldnt figure out how to link it all up

this might work

without seeing all the code its hard to tell

str(anything) == will convert anything , arrays , numbers ect to text

expActiv="hint format [""BLUFOR: %1\n\nOPFOR: %2"", parseText <t color='#1464F4'>str(wscore)</t>, parseText <t color='#E31230'>str(escore)</t>]; showscore = false";

sorry mate heres the rest of the code, my apologies.

eastdead.sqs

;script by TaNKIST

_unit = _this select 0

_wscore = wscore

_wscore = _wscore + 1

wscore = _wscore

publicvariable "wscore"

showscore = true

publicvariable "showscore"

exit

westdead.sqs

;script by TaNKIST

_unit = _this select 0

_escore = escore

_escore = _escore + 1

escore = _escore

publicvariable "escore"

showscore = true

publicvariable "showscore"

exit

outro.sqs

;script by TaNKIST

enableRadio false

;DisableUserInput true

_player_vehicle = vehicle player

?(playerside == west): player setpos getmarkerpos "Respawn_West"

?(playerside == east): player setpos getmarkerpos "Respawn_East"

removeallweapons player

?(_player_vehicle != player):deletevehicle _player_vehicle

_camera = "camera" camCreate [0,0,0]

_camera cameraEffect ["internal","back"]

_camera camSetTarget player

_camera camSetpos getpos camlogic1

_camera camSetFOV 1.000

_camera camCommit 0

@camCommitted _camera

TitleText [format["US: %1\n\nRF: %2", wscore, escore], "plain", 1]

_camera camSetpos getpos camlogic2

TitleText ["","Plain",0]

player switchCamera "INTERNAL"

hint format ["BLUFOR: %1/50\n\nOPFOR: %2/50", parseText <t color='#1464F4'>str(wscore)</t>, parseText <t color='#E31230'>str(escore)</t>];

TitleText [format["BLUFOR: %1\n\nOPFOR: %2", parseText <t color='#1464F4'>str(wscore)</t>, parseText <t color='#E31230'>str(escore)</t>], "plain", 1];

should work fine then

that looked like it would do the trick but it came up with invalid number in expression

[zonekiller 175]

hint format ["BLUFOR: %1/50\n\nOPFOR: %2/50",

maybe remove the /50 not sure why there in there

if you need to divide the score by 50 it should be str(wscore / 50)
