Well I really couldn't tell you why though I fear you may not get a response soon.

You can ask your question here:

as well.


Hope you get the info you are seeking.

You will have an answer soon... please post the entire script. I may be able to help out.

[ZuZo]

I didnt see the post befor now. . . :P but shpuld i upload the script file??
I'v made it with behaveED

[StaffSaberist]

Well, no. Here's what you can do:

1) Highlight all of your lines in BehavEd.
2) Click 'Copy'.
3) Make another post, and make [ code ] [ /code ] tags without the spaces.
4) Press Control and V. All the code will be there. Submit the post.

It may be a good idea to preview before you post, to make sure the [ code ] tags are working. It should look like this:

Your code from BehavEd would go here.

ok here it is

//(BHVD)
rem ( "opens swings doors" );

affect ( $rotadoor1$, $FLUSH$ )
{

	task ( "drota1" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

	do ( "drota1" );
}


affect ( $rotadoor1$, $FLUSH$ )
{
	do ( "drota1" );

	task ( "drota1" )
	{
		rotate ( $0 -90 0.000000$, 2500.000 );
	}

}

wait ( 7000.000 );

affect ( $rotadoor2$, $FLUSH$ )
{

	task ( "drota2" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

	do ( "drota2" );
}


affect ( $rotadoor1$, $FLUSH$ )
{

	task ( "drota2" )
	{
		rotate ( $0 -90 0.000000$, 2500.000 );
	}

	do ( "drota2" );
}

its a script for rotating doors

Ah! I see a problem right away. I'm not sure how you did the affect, but the affect should look like this:

affect ( "rotadoor1", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )

I think what causes kooky problems like that is that you may have the paths set to the wrong place.

OK, my paths are like this: I have JO installed to the default location. Also, I have BehavEd set to be installed in a Tools folder in GameData. Your mileage may vary.

OK, technically, it's JA I have BehavEd set up for, but it works for JO, and I do own both. Let me modify the paths:

1. Location of scripts:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Base\scripts

2. Location of IBIZE.EXE:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II \Jedi Outcast\GameData\Tools\IBIze.exe

3. Command description file:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Tools\behaved.bhc

4. Source Files path (IMPORTANT!!!)

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Tools\SourceForBehavEd

This assumes that BehavEd is in GameData\Tools\BehavEd.EXE. If not, let me know. Anyway, after setting the preferences, do you get a whole crud-load of errors at the bottom? If so, the paths are not correctly set. If you set the prefs the way I do and you get any errors t the bottom, let me know where you have BehavEd installed.

Good luck; scripting's a real pain in the wazoo sometimes.

[ZuZo]

i'm just getting $ in front of my "rotatoor1" i dont know how to get it work :S could you do it for me?? *-) plz




And where should i put this: *@AFFECT_TYPE* ??
I'm nwe in scripting



ZuZo

[StaffSaberist]

What? Setting the prefs didn't work? Where do you have BehavEd installed to? Please tell me the full path. I'll see if I can help after that.

And the affect type should be on the same line. It's all part of the Affect. Notice it was affect type, then flush.

[ZuZo]

ok, here is the path: C:\Program Files\LucasArts\GameData\Radiant-1.4\behavEd
I put it to Radiant folder, becous the tutorail said i should to that, i downloaded
the program without the rest of the tools :P

[StaffSaberist]

Sorry I've been gone so long. I was... busy.

OK. Here's what you should do:

In BehavEd, go to Prefs.

Set your paths as follows:

1. Location of scripts:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Base\scripts

2. Location of IBIZE.EXE:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II \Jedi Outcast\GameData\Tools\IBIze.exe

3. Command description file:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Radiant-1.4\behaved.bhc


4. Source Files path (IMPORTANT!!!)

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\Radiant-1.4\SourceForBehavEd

Let me know if that makes it work. Keep in mind that you will need to redo the Set and other commands. Good luck.

[ZuZo]

I'v set it like you said. but it still dont working :S I cant change the name on the affect. . . :S

[StaffSaberist]

What if you create a new Affect?

[ZuZo]

Should it be like this

//(BHVD)

affect ( "rotadoor", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )
{
}

[ZuZo]

yeeehoo!!!! I got it work!!! Thnx Staff!!!

//(BHVD)
rem ( "opens swings doors" );

affect ( "rotadoor1", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )
{
	do ( "drota1" );

	task ( "drota1" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

}


affect ( "rotadoor2", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )
{
	do ( "drota2" );

	task ( "drota2" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

}

wait ( 7000.000 );

affect ( "rotadoor1", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )
{
	do ( "drota1" );

	task ( "drota1" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

}


affect ( "rotadoor2", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )
{
	do ( "drota2" );

	task ( "drota2" )
	{
		rotate ( < 0.000 90.000 0.000 >, 2500.000 );
	}

}
