Halo not synced in mp?

[crazyrobban 10]

I searched for halo related threads, but couldn't find anything about this.

I make missions for me and my friends, and I recently created a mission where we start in the air and I execute the halo script in the units init line.

However, we can never actually see each other do a halo jump.

If I put an ai soldier next to us, everyone can see him in the "free fall" animation, while all the players are simply standing in the air.

Have I overlooked anything? The halo is working fine for everyone, so it's no big issue, but it takes away a bit of the immersion when it looks so odd until we pull our chutes.

Thanks

I rewrote the HALO function so it broadcasts the animation to all other players.

Write this in your init.sqf:

CYBP_animHalo = [];
"CYBP_animHalo" addPublicVariableEventHandler {(_this select 1) execVM "CYBP\HALO\PVEHanimHalo.sqf"};

if (isnil "bis_fnc_init") then {createcenter sidelogic; _grp = creategroup sidelogic; _logicFnc = _grp createunit ["FunctionsManager",position player,[],0,"none"];};
WaitUntil{!(isNil "bis_fnc_init")};
BIS_fnc_halo = compile preprocessFile "CYBP\HALO\fn_halo.sqf";	// override BIS function

Then create a folder CYBP and a folder HALO in it.

After this put the following scripts in it:

PVEHanimHalo.sqf:

_unit = _this select 0;
_anim = _this select 1;
_cmd = _this select 2;

switch (_cmd) do
{
case "switchMove" : {_unit switchMove _anim};
case "playMoveNow" : {_unit playMoveNow _anim};
};

Sweet! Thanks a lot! :-)

I will try it as soon as I have a chance!

EDIT

Ok, I'm horrible at scripting, so I'm just taking a guess here, but the scripts you sent; they wait for the halo function to be called, override it and use your scripts, right?

If so, it shouldn't be an issue that there are more playable soldiers on the same side, that's not starting in the air?

And two, do I need to put something else in the soldiers init lines? Now, they just fall, no halo, nothing.

Does the init.sqf override the init field parameters set in the editor?

I override it so if you implent the fix in a mission with HALO my fix will override the original function so it will work in every mission without changing the execution of the HALO Jump :)

And two, do I need to put something else in the soldiers init lines? Now, they just fall, no halo, nothing.

You have to execute the HALO Jump :)

nul = this spawn BIS_fnc_halo;

Does the init.sqf override the init field parameters set in the editor?

No. Why it should?

[crazyrobban 10]

It's still not working.

My soldiers simply fall to their death.

What I used before (that was working, but not synced.)

Was a trigger, not in the soldiers init fields, so I had a trigger, that was supposed to activate in case there was a bluefor present.

And the on Act field had this:

[sol1] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs"; [sol2] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs"; [sol3] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs"; [sol4] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs";  

And that works fine, as long as I don't have the lines you sent in my init.sqf.

I tried removing the trigger, and adding "nul = this spawn BIS_fnc_halo;" in the soldiers init line, but nothing happens.

[Cyborg11 10]

You can execute the HALO also with:

[unit, height] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs"; 

The script differentiates between OA and ArmA2. If you have OA / CO then it will execute the new HALO function. Otherwise it will use the old script.

But be carefull: If you want to release your mission the OA only users can't play the mission because they don't have the Script ;)

Sorry ... the correct syntax for the new function is:

nul = [unit, altitude] spawn BIS_fnc_halo;

Oh and don't write it in the init line!

[crazyrobban 10]

I'm sorry for being a n00b. :-/

So, here's how it's setup right now.

*Four soldiers, named "sol1" to "sol4" is placed in the editor.

*The scripts you sent me (fn_halo & PVEHanimHalo) are placed in:

user/arma2/missions/missionname/CYBP/HALO/

*I created a init.sqf to the mission folder and pasted the code you sent

*There's a trigger surrounding the soldiers, set to "Bluefor present" for activation. And in the On Act: there is now:

[sol1, 2000] exec "ca\air2\halo\data\Scripts\HALO_init.sqs"

I also tried with:

nul = [sol1, 2000] spawn BIS_fnc_halo;

None of them did the trick? What am I missing here? :-S

[Cyborg11 10]

Any errors?

Make a hint in your activation line to see if the trigger triggers. :D

[crazyrobban 10]

Yup, it activates. The hint showed without problems.

hint "boom!"; nul = [sol1, 2000] spawn BIS_fnc_halo;

And no errors.

[Cyborg11 10]

Can you please upload your mission? :)

[crazyrobban 10]

I'm probably blind, because I can't find any attachment options on this page.

I uploaded it on rapidshare instead.

Thanks for all your help!

[Cyborg11 10]

Doesn't work for me too.

OMG ... I looked at the fn_halo.sqf Script.

What did you do with it? :D

Why did you add line numbers? oO

Good to hear that it's working for you now. :D

Cyb, please repastebin your script.

edit: nm, I see it above. Duh.

edit2: CYB, is your halo script is pulled directly from bi_fnc_halo? Any idea why the player is inserted into "ParachuteC" instead of a steerable chute? Avoiding the eject from steerable bug?
