hellstorm77 2 Posted April 3, 2013 I was wondering if i could get alittle help with a script. I'm looking for a Crew Info in vehicles script that allows me to see who is in the vehicles im in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marker 1 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Here you go mate... Plenty of ways to show the data, from dialogs to hint boxes to titletext like I have... Just call it as usual from the init.sqf file... while {true} do { if(player != vehicle player) then { _name = ""; _vehicle = assignedVehicle player; { if((driver _vehicle == _x) || (gunner _vehicle == _x)) then { if(driver _vehicle == _x) then { _name = format ["%1 %2 %3 %4 %5",_name, (name _x)]; } else { _name = format ["%1 %2 %3 %4 %5",_name, (name _x)]; }; } else { _name = format ["%1 %2 %3 %4 %5",_name, (name _x)]; }; } forEach crew _vehicle; titleText [ Format ["%1 %2 %3 %4 %5",_name], "PLAIN DOWN", 0.1]; }; }; Will show like so.... Ignore ST_Hud, the names above it are what it shows! ---------- Post added at 20:20 ---------- Previous post was at 19:19 ---------- Or use this one with icons etc and as a silent hint! while {true} do { if(player != vehicle player) then { _name = ""; _vehicle = assignedVehicle player; { if((driver _vehicle == _x) || (gunner _vehicle == _x)) then { if(driver _vehicle == _x) then { _name = format ["%1 %2 <img size='0.8' image='a3\ui_f\data\IGUI\Cfg\Actions\getindriver_ca.paa'/><br/>",_name,(name _x)]; } else { _name = format ["%1 %2 <img size='0.8' image='a3\ui_f\data\IGUI\Cfg\Actions\getingunner_ca.paa'/><br/>",_name, (name _x)]; }; } else { _name = format ["%1 %2 <img size='0.8' image='a3\ui_f\data\IGUI\Cfg\Actions\getincargo_ca.paa'/><br/>",_name, (name _x)]; }; } forEach crew _vehicle; hintsilent parsetext _name; }; }; Edited icons, using more viewable ones now!

Slammin 10 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Hi Marker! Mucho gracias for this feature! (As the utter noob I am) I have tried getting this implemented in our current mission but so far without success. I copy-pasted your code in our init.sqf but without results. Subsequently I copy-pasted your code in a seperate vehiclecrew.sqf getting called by null = execVM "vehiclecrew.sqf"; in init.sqf. Also without results. Am i overlooking something specifically to make this work? Edited April 3, 2013 by Slammin grammar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slammin 10 Posted April 3, 2013 Thanks Marker and thanks Jman!! Really useful and much wanted feature! @Marker, it was not your initial scripts that caused this feature not to work on our server. I found out that a piece of the script in init.sqf from " Digital Compass Bearing script [ALPHA] " by BearBison conflicts with this script. Code : /* Compass bearing */ //call compile preprocessFile "scripts\BEARB_heading.sqf"; http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=19486 http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?150530-Digital-Compass-Script Perhaps does someone know if there is one way or another to circumvent this conflict.

hellstorm77 2 Posted April 4, 2013 i tried that but it crashed saying #include <crewinfo\dialog.hpp> not found so i just took out the other script and just used the crewinfo made things easier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[kh]jman 49 Posted April 4, 2013 In the editor if you make a change to the description.ext you MUST reload the mission back into the editor before previewing it or it will not see your changes... that's prob what caused it. Other than that re-check that the crewinfo dir exists in the root of your mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clydefrog 3 Posted April 7, 2013 Thanks for this Jman, the one issue I had with it was that where it came up on the left side of the screen is right where the action menu comes up, making it pretty unreadable when they overlap. So I edited a couple of values in the dialog.hpp file. If anybody using it wants the crew list on the far right instead where it is out of the way of the action menu and also hints, then just replace the part of the dialog.hpp file from line 24 to line 36 with the following: class crewinfotext { idc = 10101; type = CT_STRUCTURED_TEXT; style = ST_LEFT; x = (SafeZoneX + 2.25); y = (SafeZoneY + 0.40); w = 0.3; h = 0.6; size = 0.018; colorBackground[] = { 0, 0, 0, 0 }; colortext[] = {0,0,0,0.7}; text =""; }; Hopefully it works the same as it does for me on other monitors and it doesn't depend on monitor size or anything.

I have the direction my gunner is looking next to his name in the vehicle... Will work on placing it inside a dialog for you to use...
