Whereami Armband v.2.0.6 + coordinates extractor, object lister, door opener

[sketch42]

Darth333 thank you for making this... but just one question though.. well maybe more than one

 

when i open a git file it shows a few things for orientation

http://www.imagemonster.org/getimg/gitfile.gif

one is for x orientation and one for Y Orientation... but your armband only shows one field for orientation is this x or y ... and if its for just one can you make it where itll show you both?

[Darth333]

My armband will give you the XOrientation. I never really bothered with the YOrientation as this value rarely changes when you look at the exiting .git files...and honestly, I don't really know what it visually changes in the game, especially for creatures Perhaps someone who has played with this value can tell us...

does the position you get work with the direction you are facing when you activate the armband?

Yes, the relevant extract of the code is:

float GetOrientation= GetFacing(OBJECT_SELF);

[Darth333]

New version uploaded! v. 2.0.2

 

The script has been modified to convert degrees in radians so that you will now be able to get the bearing in the output and not just the orientation in degrees. This will facilitate the positioning of placeables in the .git file.

 

Sample output:

 

Beginning whereami output:
Module: 601dan
> 365.64645
> 138.08188
> 6.70874
> Orientation: 106.80502
> Bearing: 1.86410

End of whereami output

Thank you for this Darth333. It is always nice to see add on features to even the mildest of modding tools.

[RedHawke]

Sweet, thanks Darth333!

 

This should make Module making much easier.

There is no way to display a script "as is" but you can insert debugging functions in your script (you don't need the armband for this). Check this thread: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=125847

Hello,

 

With the permission of Darth333, I've updated this armband's dialog. It will now also tell you the tag and distance of the nearest Creature, Placeable, Trigger, Waypoint, and Door. You can then choose to force open the nearest door.

 

These appear in normal dialog, not in the Feedback screen. (To make them appear in the feedback screen, uncomment the commented sections in d3_getloc.nss and recompile.)

[Darth333]

Thanks for that useful update and for uploading it at SWK.com (edit: and for changing the title of this thread )

 

Now I've got to find some time to use the armband

[Mav]

I for one think that this is a really useful edit for an already fantastic mod, great job tk102 and Darth333

[Keiko]

Yeah thanks guys! (Guy) And Darth333 (girl)

[tk102]

An infuriated T7Nowhere informed me of an issue with v2.0.3's Orientation/Bearing readout. Steam spouted from his ears as he explained that these readings seemed to be affected by the initiation of the extended dialog.

 

As a workaround, I've updated the scripts so that nearest objects are written immediately to the Feedback screen. I've also added instructions on how to install this mod without any dialog at all. (This latter method quenched T7Nowhere's fiery wroth.)

wroth? Do you mean wrath?

 

Thank you for the fix though TK. I would think it might be hard seeing steam come out of T7's ears with that helmet on though. By the way has anybody noticed how T7 looks like Mandalore?

Edit tk102: Um Yes, wrath. T7 scared my noun into an adjective.

[Keiko]

Man, there has been so many good modz out there, and this one deservies a 10!!!!

[Darth333]

The armband has been updated to fix a bug that would prevent the bearing and orientation to display correctly (more details in this thread: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=150339 )

 

I just fusionned the script that gets the coordinates and the script that fires the .dlg together.

What a simple fix!

Thanks

When I created 'DAP: I', I drew out levels, and set up coordinates. The Whereami Armband works like a charm. Thanks Darth333Lady. Yes! I did not know this existed untill I saw the thread.. lol... I am so slow some times... lol...

 

All hail Darth333 the queen.

[TheOssusKeeper]

Kudos Darth333...

[The Source]

I don't know if someone has mentioned this, but when I use the "Where Am I Band', my character records the orientation or bearing from the oposite direction. I was wondering if this was fixed, or if this is something new?

 

Either way! I still think this is one of the coolest utilities made!

[Darth333]

Are you using the last version? (v. 2.0.5) It should give you the direction in which your pc is facing. Otherwise, I'll double check it but it works fine for me.

[The Source]

I checked your first post of this thread, and I didn't see any indication. Is there a 'Whereami' band for KotOR I?

[Darth333]

No but I can make one Check back tomorrow!
