DeadlyBOFH Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 Guys, im trying to create a section of code that'll display approximately 4-6 lines of MOTD on connection (where it is loading the maps and players and skins).. Anyone know how to do this?
remark 666 Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 just had to stick my face in another one of your threads....
TheWhiteRaider Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 Geez Remark you don't let anything go. It is a good thing you aren't a leader of a country or else you would be bombing the heck out of countrys from here to the end of the world for misspelling your name!
Subject452 Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 sure its possible, but cant think clearly right now :\, what isnt possible is reading the g_motd through the .menu files
DeadlyBOFH Posted August 16, 2002 Author Posted August 16, 2002 Subject; i've already got a single line g_motd.. Im trying to get a multiple line one.
Subject452 Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 isnt it so that g_motd can only hold one line not multiple lines with enters etc.
DeadlyBOFH Posted August 16, 2002 Author Posted August 16, 2002 Yeah it is.. Im just trying to make it display more than 1 line.
[JHQ]Inty Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 Add a \n character in the motd string and edit the client source to parse and display it properly.
remark 666 Posted August 16, 2002 Posted August 16, 2002 remark; no hard feelings eh? for now...yes Insanity's grip will never let go...
DeadlyBOFH Posted August 17, 2002 Author Posted August 17, 2002 Inty; as nice as that may seem, end users wouldnt understand the whole \n thing... Im thinking multiple motd lines in the .cfg file... or a motd.txt file that'll parse the file and display it on initial spawn.
