Brilliant! Finally have it working. Thanks!

Heya all - does anyone know the script that activates a trigger when a training target's knocked down? Essentially, I want to end the mission when a certain target is hit. Any ideas?

Ah, thanks mate! That's brilliant! I take it a variation of the above will work for the pop-up target and simple targets? Perhaps I just need to change "Orange" or "Green" to the name of the target and ignore the setObjectTexture? I'll fiddle with it tonight and try. Again, as always, thank you!

I take it it's not treated as a living object is it?

Am I posting this in the right place? :)

Say, wouldn't it be fantastic if some trees exploded with life when you approached them. A flock of birds taking flight? That way, if you were alone in a wooded area or forest, and you heard birds taking flight, you'd know you weren't alone. That would certainly create an atmosphere while being very realistic. Apologies, I meant to post this as a reply in another thread (discussions and ideas).

Thanks guys - it works a charm - and looks frigging amazing! Cheers all!

wow, okay! That's fantastic! So, let me get this straight - I create an .sqf file with the above coding, yeah? And how do I call it? Sorry, you chaps are much better at this than me.

Yeah - which is fantastic - but we'd just love to see birds getting spooked and flying from trees...

Yeah - that's sort of what I had in mind! Maybe less birds though, just a couple, springing up from the forest canopy! Awesome!

Goodness - that's all a bit above my head! Great find though! Can anyone break that down for us?

Does anybody know if there is a way to hide or disable the object names that appear in-game? You know, if you look at an object, it appears on screen. Any ideas? Or even how to change them to something else?

Ah no, really? If anybody knows differently, please let us know!

You know when you move your cursor over a snake and it comes up 'snake', or 'H-barrier', or 'Stone House' etc. That's the text I'd like to get rid of or change...

Ah fantastic, thanks! ---------- Post added at 09:08 ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 ---------- That works - but it wasn't the typewriting effect I was looking for... it's as if the text is being written on a typewriter and there's a sound effect with it too. You can see it on the helicopter showcase when you re-arm... not sure what the script would be? All the same, that's quite an interesting bit of scripting to know.

Yay! Can't wait! Seriously, I'm looking forward to your update just about as much as I was the Beta! Yup, best take all the time you need with the oil rig - wouldn't want to rush it. Looking amazing from what I've seen so far... ---------- Post added at 08:47 ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 ---------- This is what I've done with the user texture. Presently I'm using the shoot house walls as a backing.

I think it involves adding letters bit by bit - but I'd love to get my hands on a script ...

I've tried setlightintensity, but it doesn't work...

I wonder if I might put in a request? Can we get billboards and pinboards? I bet they'd be quite easy to do. Just blank ones, so we could add user textures? Maybe a few large billboards to add the 10m custom texture to?A simple, black or grey, oblong square? :)

Thanks - but I was looking for a way to change them too. I also wanted them so that other players can't see them on multiplayer. It's a small, niggling detail - but would be great to get it sorted. There must be something that can be changed? Perhaps something in the description.sqf?

I've tried setidentity, and also naming the object in the description and title box...

They're some great ideas and I agree too - would really add to immersion. I just love the idea of startling birds in a forest and them taking flight. Friend or foe? Who's out there? etc.

PLEASE DELETE - Duplicate post, many apologies!

Yeah - but it'd be great to actually see a flock of birds (native to a Greek island) taking flight! I used to do a lot of hunting, and it was always a giveaway of something.
