Discussion: Zoom Sniper Scope

[ASP-SniperOne]

Code: [Select]

if ( self fragButtonPressed())
{
zoom++;

if (zoom == 0) zoom = 1;

if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
}
}

if(isDefined(self.hud_zoom) && self playerADS() != 1 ) self.hud_zoom destroy();
}
}

perhaps you meant to use "--" but I see a "++"

What if you tried this?

Code: [Select]

if ( self fragButtonPressed())
{
zoom--;

if (zoom == 0) zoom = 1;

if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
}
}

if(isDefined(self.hud_zoom) && self playerADS() != 1 ) self.hud_zoom destroy();
}
}

i know a bunch of the sniper scope mods take away the sway and the breath but what if you did this...

i think the breath is a cool effect. no real sniper could sustain a long look see threw a scope without taking a breath or blinking an eye.

to make a happy medium what if you added the +holdbreath "current console command that is in debate if its a hack" to the mod to give it a more real effect..

you have the instant snap to steady that most like yet you cant hold it forever and there is a breath for realism.

or could you add this as on option and still have the multi zoom effect and maybe extend breath time...

food for thought...

perhaps you meant to use "--" but I see a "++"

Doh!!!

I've just put the -- and works fantastic.

Thanks for the help!

ok can i just create the _exe_zoom.gsc with notepad++ like i did here...

main()

{
self endon("disconnect");
self endon("death");
self endon("joined_spectators");

switch( self getCurrentWeapon() )
{
case "m21_mp":
zoom = 1;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
break;

case "barrett_mp":
zoom = 1;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
break;

case "dragunov_mp":
zoom = 1;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
break;

case "m40a3_mp":
zoom = 1;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
break;

case "remington700_mp":
zoom = 1;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
break;

default:
zoom = 0;
break;
}

while(isAlive( self ) && zoom != 0)
{
wait .05;

if ( self playerADS() == 1)
{
if(!isdefined(self.hud_zoom))
{
self.hud_zoom = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hud_zoom.x = 320;
self.hud_zoom.y = 450;
self.hud_zoom.alignx = "center";
self.hud_zoom.aligny = "middle";
self.hud_zoom.horzAlign = "fullscreen";
self.hud_zoom.vertAlign = "fullscreen";
self.hud_zoom.alpha = .9;
self.hud_zoom.fontScale = 2;
}
//self.hud_zoom.label = &"1st-SC_^2ZOOM^1"; //comment this out if you do not have localized strings defined here
self.hud_zoom setvalue(zoom);

if ( self meleeButtonPressed())
{
zoom++;

if (zoom == 7) zoom = 6;

if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
}

if ( self fragButtonPressed())
{
zoom--;

if (zoom == 0) zoom = 1;

if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
}
}

if(isDefined(self.hud_zoom) && self playerADS() != 1 ) self.hud_zoom destroy();
}
}

and add script to the _exe_main.gsc like i did here... lines 58-76

//*********************************************************************************************
// extreme launch player threads
//*********************************************************************************************
playerThreads()
{
   level endon("game_ended");
   self endon("disconnect");
   self endon("killed_player");
   
   //Zoom self thread        
    self thread extreme\_ex_zoom::main();
   // show logo
   if(level.ex_logo_image) self thread extreme\_ex_logo::init();
   
   // show MOD logo
   //if(level.ex_modlogo) self thread extreme\_ex_logo::mod_logo();

   // apply laser dot
   if(level.ex_laserdot) self createLaserdot();

and upload both into the extreme/extreme folder and all be well or is there more that i need to do?  Clicked on tutorial but website down or somethin tthx

i copied this from my rcon tool after i loaded the three gsc files

[Joker{eXtreme}]

Email me the 3 gsc files

[redrock]

sent

[Joker{eXtreme}]

And replied

[redrock]

havent got it yet.  schampoo2002@yahoo.com  thx

[Joker{eXtreme}]

Rename:
 
_exe_zoom.gsc
 
TO
 
_ex_zoom.gsc

[redrock]

omg what an idiot!!  Server is up now but the zooming doesnt work i have f as my melee key and g as my frag key.  When i press f while ads nothin happens.When i press g while ads i throw frag :?

[redrock]

nevermind  ended up renameing to _ex_zoom   lol  not .gsc      Now if i can figure out how to have the melee keypress just keep looping from 1-6 then start over the next time you press melee.

[weestu]

Rather than bother sniperone, thought i'd post here m8.

I have added zoom and all seems fine except, i cannot zoom in any further than 4. Zoom 5 & 6 are redundant, they show on screen but no movement.

Here is my _ex_zoom.gsc

main()

{
self endon("disconnect");
self endon("death");
self endon("joined_spectators");

switch( self getCurrentWeapon() )
{
case "m21_mp":
zoom = 2;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
break;

case "barrett_mp":
zoom = 2;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
break;

case "dragunov_mp":
zoom = 2;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
break;

case "m40a3_mp":
zoom = 2;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
break;

case "remington700_mp":
zoom = 2;
self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
break;

default:
zoom = 0;
break;
}

while(isAlive( self ) && zoom != 0)
{
wait .05;

if ( self playerADS() == 1)
{
if(!isdefined(self.hud_zoom))
{
self.hud_zoom = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hud_zoom.x = 320;
self.hud_zoom.y = 450;
self.hud_zoom.alignx = "center";
self.hud_zoom.aligny = "middle";
self.hud_zoom.horzAlign = "fullscreen";
self.hud_zoom.vertAlign = "fullscreen";
self.hud_zoom.alpha = .9;
self.hud_zoom.fontScale = 2;
}
self.hud_zoom.label = &"MISC_ZOOM"; //comment this out if you do not have localized strings defined here
self.hud_zoom setvalue(zoom);

if ( self meleeButtonPressed())
{
zoom++;

if (zoom == 7) zoom = 6;

if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
}

if ( self fragButtonPressed())
{
zoom--;

if (zoom == 0) zoom = 1;
 
if (zoom == 6) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "3");
if (zoom == 5) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "5");
if (zoom == 4) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "10");
if (zoom == 3) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "15");
if (zoom == 2) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "20");
if (zoom == 1) self setclientDvar ("cg_fovmin", "40");
}
}

if(isDefined(self.hud_zoom) && self playerADS() != 1 ) self.hud_zoom destroy();
}
}


Many Thanks in advance
