shadow 6 Posted February 4, 2002 The 'SQS' extension is for script-files. Just like the 'SQM' is a mission-file. Sith: How about some tuts on: Dummies guides on how to make scripts? cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whirlwind 0 Posted February 5, 2002 /me thinks, you have to change your folder-settings of your explorer. Turn off the "hide extions of known files" and you'll be okay... now you can create a textfile NEW --> TEXTFILE and rename it to .sqs Hope it helps...

Black Knight 0 Posted February 22, 2002 Hi, i need a little help. I was using the "Tutorial 3 - Helicopter boarding" <----- http://www.3dactionplanet.com/flashpoint/Tutorial3/Tutorial%203.html and i was wondering if there is a way to board a chopper by yourself. So when the chopper is supposed to come, to pick you up, it lands and waits for you to get in then fly's off. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

atamanch 0 Posted August 27, 2002 I'm done making an Omaha beach mission, except for one part. The parachuting... I'm using a C-47 and a WW2 squad both from http://www.ofpww2.dk/ but the script you guys gave me never works with them, I changed the names in it and all but it still won't run as proper. Is there something else needed, I tried seeing what is wrong with my mission by going into your tutorial and stripping it down so I can see, but your tutorial is ready only, pls help...

granQ 293 Posted February 10, 2007 now this is an old thread. Anyway, looking for some information I couldnt find in the wiki, did a google and kinda ended up here. Would it be possible to give premission for all this tutorials to end up in the wiki? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DnA 5154 Posted February 15, 2007 I see no problems with that, what do you say Sith? Please confirm the information first though, those tutorials were written millenia ago ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james (J) 0 Posted February 24, 2007 Pleas help on the page linked to bellow ther is a tutareal about respawn (it is about harf the way down) and i am confused as to what file type i should save my respawn text as because the tutareal says to save it as an ".ext" and as far as i know this file type dose not exsist http://www.3dactionplanet.com/flashpoint/Tutor_10.html pleze help J Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DnA 5154 Posted February 24, 2007 That's right, you need to save as ext, but luckily you can do so using any normal text editor. Just enter a filename like: description.ext. The only risk is that your editor may save the file as description.ext.txt. In that case you will just need to remove that last bit from the filename manually. I guess there is an easier way of preventing this, but I don't know it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C4P741N 0 Posted February 24, 2007 In every (worthwhile) mission there is a description.ext. This contains the briefing, respawn, scenario conditions and many other much needed things (dialogues 'n' shit)... http://www.ofpec.com/ed_depot/tutes.php This link has a tutorial on the said Description.ext file.

mireazma 0 Posted September 16, 2008 Regarding the tutorial 2 CTF, I'd like to know how to make the mission begin (intro) like any other mission by default: start in map with briefing and only after that start the actual game. Thanks. EDIT: It works now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
