Dear Aircraftkiller,
I was hoping to be able to use your strings.tbd for my next map. However, theres more to it, i wish to change some things like the death message and some other things. i do not plan to change anything that would conflict with other maps. From my understanding you cannot export Strings.tbd with the mix. And i thought it would be easier if i could put my small changes into yours, that way avoiding any sort of proplems.
Simple list of the things i want to change.
Death message
Entering game message
Leaving game message
Please take the time to look at this, and thank you for listening.

Due to large amounts of spam e-mails I've received lately, most of them being infected with viruses, I'm not able or willing to accept questions via e-mail anymore.
Lion set up a forum for me to work with, so you can visit there and ask me anything within my field of expertise.

I'll handle just about everything I can.

You can live without changing the strings file or you can release a package modification with the strings changed, instead.

Or he can just make his own strings file and put it with the mix. :rolleyes:

The scripts.dll is also an optional file like the strings.tdb. Anyone is allowed to change them and distribute the files as they wish to do so and there are no restrictions on doing it.
There wouldn't be much point distributing the strings.tdb with the scripts.dll as no one needs to have the script.dll installed unless your running a server or making maps - considering installing the strings.tdb on the FDS won't help much. It's fine as it is with ACK's maps - it gets downloaded with lots of ACK's maps and people will download them more likely then downloading a seperate strings.tdb.
Also I think people should be allowed to add strings but not change original ones - unless faulty. I am considering adding 18 strings to do with CTF mode if I get a script written for it but that is not certain as I may get away with using the original ones if they work.

ACK..no need to get fustrated over this....I for one know people arent going to use those strings when we use your maps and want the anouncements you have worked on ....adding CTF sounds to your existing one would be a good idea...so that we can benifet from only using the same strings.tdb.
Besides Can't you edit the death scream on the character itself? by temping a new one?

Yeah but it's all N/A anyway as you won't hear it in game. Only the host hears it, which in the case of a FDS it isn't going to be heard by anyone. The CTF may be able to be done with current strings. Just need a script written that will enable them to be heard (we have the host only situation again until a script is written).

You realize it took me an entire day to get the missing features of Renegade working properly, and further modifications of it to perfect it? I don't want people fucking up my hard work.
Of course, you didn't know this, you just sat there and thought you could poke fun at what I've done. Ignorance is bliss, yes?

I realize how long it took you, but how hard is it for you to say "yes"? He's not going to "fuck it up", all he's gonna do is add some things. You bitch and whine all day about you're the only one to do this community any good, but you won't even let another modder add to your work, so people can enjoy the stuff you did on more than just your maps. Sounds like ignorance and selfishness to me. :rolleyes:

ACK snice your a mod, by request of Poster (me) can you lock this thread? it has served its purpose and doesn't need to be on the page anymore.
