now if i am to add a set of attack frames,(i tryed to put the play frame set data in at local 00, 01[never the less it played the attack frame when firing, but after it killed the enemy it crashed]) {the code playfram 0x11 # frame set 1
wait 10
playfram 0x00 # frame set 0
gotorepeatattk }

im trying to figure where i went wrong. yes i did make a new grp with 2 sets of frames totaling 34 individual frames. and patched it with both fire graft and mpq draft, seperate patches with the grp and the iscript (properly compiled) contained inside and no other editing.

please tyr to help me figure this out the vulture attack frames were easy to change and the battle cruiser seems to be difficult.

[raidmax]

Try adding a wait 1 before frameset 1 is called, its trying to play two framesets at once. So like this:


wait 1
playfram 0x11 # frame set 1
wait 10
playfram 0x00 # frame set 0
gotorepeatattk

[migidu]

just my guess, you cant end the block of code with gotorepeatattk

[KillerKow]

What migidu means to say, is that you need to include (leave in, it's there by default) the 'goto BattlecruiserGndAttkToIdle' after the gotorepeatattk, which you have not specified that you have done.

[raidmax]

Holy crap, how did I miss that? Yeah, do what they said.

can any one tell me why this doesn't work.

i had to put extra shadow frames in tveShad.grp for it to work.

[migidu]

ugh, that's because there are two iscript IDs in one iscript file -- the science vesel and the power generator. which should not be.

not to be rude, but i did figure it out check out the bottom of the quote.

i use other iscript to see how they are written. i acdentally left it on there when i posted before.

[migidu]

so what do you mean? i think that was the problem if you compiled the iscript with two IDs.

[shaggydavid]

you can change multipule iscript entres and compile them into an iscript. although i only compiled the wessel and vulture entrys for the mod not the power generator.

[Pearcenator]

O.o? This isn't making a lick of sense to me. mainly cause I can't use iceCC due to it never openning up. even my friend has problems with it... I just stick to the basics:D(ICE). it works for me. I also "use my resources" as in learn from iscripts from other mods. Not to steal, just learn:).

[shaggydavid]

that is how i make my mods in icecc, i go to the one i want to change and click on it and then i go to the one that has the type of changes i want to make and decompile them together then i go to the text editor and edit the one im working with to emulate the other one.

[migidu]

there are 2 headers. that's what im pointing out. icecc runs only at java real time.

[shaggydavid]

here ill show you a working vulture , wraith, and science vessel. in my mod i have corisponding grps to make it work.

note: that the vulture walking graphic is duplicated a lot of times but that is the only way to get enough wait time for the biggest maps.

in icecc this text file is overlaped with a default one changing it to a whole iscript file wich you would place in your mod.
