Scripting credits help - Lukaboy8 - 08-05-2012
Hello everybody,
I'm trying to make my credits but it doesn't work. I made a map with a floor and a player start point and then on my screen is just that map and not any credits or something. This is the Credits.hps:
PHP Code:
void OnStart()
{
StartCredits("ending_daniel.ogg", false, "Ending", "MainCredits", 101);
}
This is my extra_english.lang
PHP Code:
<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name ="Ending">
<Entry Name="MainCredits">Here should be the Credits text but it doesn't work...</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

:\ not sure but try this:
void OnStart()
{
StartCredits("ending_daniel.ogg", false, "MyEnding", "MyMainCredits", 101);
}
<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name ="MyEnding">
<Entry Name="MyMainCredits">Here should be the Credits text but it doesn't work...</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>
You had an extra </CATEGORY> and I think MainCredits is also the name of the original's credits so try this
RE: Scripting credits help - Lukaboy8 - 08-05-2012
Whoeps sorry! That </CATEGORY> wasn't supposed to be in there but it's still not working. You have to give it the name Ending and MainCredits. Look at this page: http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/amnesia/script_functions
CTRL+F And then StartCredits

No, that's a mistake written in the Wiki. It is not required for them to be the same as the main game.

Try putting more text on different lines, like this:
<Entry Name="MainCredits">This is a test
goodness look at all the tests being done
custom storyyy
</Entry>
This is what fixed it for me.
RE: Scripting credits help - Lukaboy8 - 08-06-2012
It still doesn't work. I tried all of your answers:/
When I'm in Entrance hall.map I get the music I wanted to hear but the screen doesn't go black to show my credits:/ This is the Entrance hall.hps
PHP Code:
void OnStart()
{
StartCredits("ending_daniel.ogg", false, "Ending", "MainCredits", 101);
}
And this is the part in extra_english.lang
PHP Code:
<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="Ending">
<Entry Name="MainCredits">Here should be my Credits but it does not work. It does start playing the music I wanted but it does not go black to show this text</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>
Can somebody please help?
