Fool Proof Race Gump.

[atticus589]

mmmk.... I was working on Gd13's Race Stone.... and now that i am slowly getting better and better at reading asnd writing in this language i realize that the stone i was working on was not expandable at alll.... So I decided to write a script all on my own that way no one can complain its "stolen its stolen, and i can write my own scripts so i'll just complain!" sooo here you go... not gonna mention any names.... but georox and bzk90 please nothing nice to say dont speak....



Files....
this is not a stone most people get irritated in the fact that you have to make a seperate place for players to start and what not..... soooo I decided to make it jump up on new character creation... It includes (totally expandable and changeable you guys have full writes to mod all you want) 6 races... (Orc, elf, Drow, Dragoon, Halfling, and of course dwarven.) Ive made it easy to see the areas that are Mod-able and I left The skill bonus and stat bonus Code in there if you wish to add Skills With the Race Along with a way to add certain Items... And the teleport command to send them where you wish.


Installation and Correct Setup.
STEP 1.
First Off go into Scripts.Misc.CharCreation.cs
Open this file.
On the taskbar click Edit.
at the very bottom it says Goto, Type in 504, press enter....
Make sure that there are no "//" in front of this line.
STEP 2.
Open Scripts.Misc.WelcomeTimer.cs
On the taskbar click Edit.
at the very bottom it says Goto, Type in 36, press enter....
Replace: protected override void OnTick()
{
if ( m_State < m_Count )
m_Mobile.SendMessage( 0x35, m_Messages[m_State++] );
}

With this file: protected override void OnTick()
{
if ( m_State < m_Count )
m_Mobile.SendMessage( 0x35, m_Messages[m_State++] );

if ( m_State == m_Count )
{
m_Mobile.SendGump(new RaceChoiceGump() );
Stop();
}

__________________________________________________ _______________Step 3.
Download this file and add it to you Scipts.Customs folder, if you dont have one I suggest making one...


And that is it.... Any and all feed back is very welcome!

Nice little race gump.

[TheOutkastDev]

It would be better to hook the login event. This would require no distro scripts to be edited.

[bzk90]

nice script i might use myself, and only reason u got flamed last time was cus u didndt realy change all that much of the stone it was like me taking a blade of insanity and collaing it sword of insaneness and calling it my own script, but this one i like good job

[atticus589]

Thanks for input....

Says cant find racechoicegump

[atticus589]

did you download the racegump and put it in customs folder? if so make sure that the "racegumpselection" thing is capitalized.... "RaceGumpSelection"

[DraconisDesBois]

[atticus589]

[weaselboy246]

[atticus589]

Here Ill Send You My Welcome Timer.

I was unable to recreate error.... this is for version 1.0 btw...


If this dosent work post the file where u got the errors...

Well not sure friend what i was doin but that worked ty.....Looks Great too
MAybe another question i havnt seen this writen like this before can ya point me right direction please id appreciate it...

m.Title = "the Elf"; //Mod these if you wish.
///////////////////////////////REMEMBER TO ERASE
//m.Skills.*SKILLNAME* = ##;//The "//"
//m.Str,Dex,orINT += ##; //
////////////////////////////
//m.Location = new Point3D( 1496, 1628, 10 );
break;

Should this look like this:

m.Skills.*Magery* = 150;//The "//"
m.Skills.*EvalInt* = 125;//
m.Skills.*Meditation* = 150;//
m.Skills.*MagicResist* = 125;//The "//
m.INT += 150; //

Would it be ok like this or should it be done with a full sentance then followed by the other skills... Or did i even write it correctly?

[atticus589]

m.Skills.Magery = 150 except when i tried it it came up with errors that it wasn't properly formatted soooo if you wanna try to fix that that is how it worked for me before.... i dun know why it is not working now...

No didnt work for me tryd it several ways doesnt have right method to server.skills every way i tryd it m.Skills.Mining += 125;//The "//"
m.Str += 135;

Perhaps its missing something in lines for it to have read proper if u figure it out guy let me no id like to start the ones who choose to use it with a lil extras in skills and stats....
One other thing u no if its possible to have the gump not open at birth.....Like say maybe 3 mins into it ....

ill post the script so far and one thing im trying to do is have when seleted a race u get rewarded with a unique item but cant figure out which code to put i keep getting errors....



m.Title = "the Dwarf";
m.Skills[SkillName.Mining].Base = 130;
m.Skills[SkillName.Lumberjacking].Base = 100;
m.Skills[SkillName.Tinkering].Base = 100;
m.Skills[SkillName.Blacksmith].Base = 120;
m.Skills[SkillName.ArmsLore].Base = 90;
m.RawStr = 140;
m.RawDex = 75;
m.RawInt = 40;
Chopper Chopper = new Chopper();
AddToBackpack( Chopper );

break;
}

On line 504 for me it is a }. what is the wording in this area? //CityInfo city = args.City is this it?
