You make my life interesting.

 

First put an Affect and make it affect however you called your NPC (was it kyle1?)

 

Now put a set inside the Affect and make it SET_WEAPON press re-evaluate and choose WP_SABER from the new list.

 

Put another Set and make it SET_SABERACTIVE and choose false.

 

After the camera got back to him, do the same thing, but choose true.

ok, i got that, now im trying to get him to talk...

 

heres what i put:

 

//(BHVD)

 

affect ( "kylestart", /*@AFFECT_TYPE*/ FLUSH )

{

set ( /*@SET_TYPES*/ "SET_SABERACTIVE", /*@BOOL_TYPES*/ "true" );

 

task ( "kylestart" )

{

sound ( /*@CHANNELS*/ CHAN_VOICE, "sound/chars/kyle/13kyk003.mp3" );

}

 

}

 

 

Its not the whole script, only the part where the saber turns on, and when he is supposed to talk... but he wont talk.. the saber comes on, then hes supposed to say "stormtroopers" but he just stands there...And im sure i got the file right.

 

thanks!!!

Hehe, that's just wrong.

 

You've putted the dowait inside the task. Get it out of there.

 

PS: I made it PHP because it got lots of pretty colors.
