Radio Chat in Cutscene ?

[hit-man 0]

Hi,

just started with camera scripting and working with a good tutorial. I too found how to display text a scene. But i just can't find anywhere how to insert radio-chat in a cutscene ? A simple trigger doesn't work obviously. What  does the code needs to look like ?

thank you !

If you just want to display some radio-text without playing a sound, use these commands:

globalChat, sideChat, groupChat, vehicleChat

Thank you,

only want to use radio-text displayed. If i got you right, i only need to put the sidechat commands into the script ? I'll give it a try...

By the way, are you german too ?

Edit: I added this but it doesn't work:

Unitname sidechat "Text Text"

I mean in cutscenes the radiomessages don't work. I've testet ist by some edited missions and no messages. Don't know why

They work for me, just tested it with this code snippet (sqf)

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">private ["_pname","_camera"];

_pname = name player;

_camera = "camera" CamCreate [0,0,0];

_camera cameraeffect ["internal", "back"];

_camera CamSetTarget player;

_camera CamSetRelPos [0,-10,5];

_camera CamCommit 0;

waitUntil { camCommitted _camera };

sleep 3;

 player sideChat format["This is %1 calling HQ, over", _pname];

_camera CamSetRelPos [20,0,30];

_camera CamCommit 10;

sleep 1;

 [west,"HQ"] sidechat format["This is HQ, we read you %1. out", _pname];

waitUntil { camCommitted _camera };

_camera cameraeffect ["terminate","back"];

camDestroy _camera;

Quote[/b] ]Unitname sidechat "Text Text"

Unitname is here just a variable pointing to a unit that you gave that name (in the mission editor). So change it to what ever you called the soldier, who sends the radio message.

Thanks for the code, but i get an error msg "wait until...camcomitted camera....generic error in expression". Tested different changes but the radio messages aren't displayed.  

EDIT 10.42: Ok, it works in the mission, but doesn't in the intro... many thanks !
