(SOLVED) StartCredits script confusion.

[G510s]

StartCredits(string& asMusic, bool abLoopMusic, string& asTextCat, string& asTextEntry, int alEndNum);

is the code im suppose to use to end a story without any fancy functions. but how do i use it. that is the part that is stopping me. can someone tell me exactly what im suppose to do with this code to make it work?

[Romulator]

asMusic - the music to play (including .ogg)
abLoopMusic - determines whether the music should loop
asTextCat - the category to be used in the .lang file
asTextEntry - the entry in the .lang file
alEndNum - Amnesia has 3 different endings and displays a code at the bottom. Determines which code is displayed. 0-2 will display codes, any other integer will not.

asMusic is the music you want to hear during the end credits. It can be anything as long as it is in a .ogg format and is somewhere, but it helps enormously to be inside your custom stories folder.

abLoopMusic is whether you want the music to loop. True = Yes. False = No.

asTextCat is a <Category Name="CATEGORY"> reference to the extra_english.lang file. Since it is a reference, the Category Name (whatever is in quotation marks) should go here.

asTextEntry is a <Entry Name="ENTRY"> reference to the extra_english.lang file. This is the entry or text within the category. This should be where your credits are.

alEndNum, just make it 3.

So code would be:

Spoiler below!

PHP Code: (Select All)

void OnLeave()     //Click on a Level Door to execute
{
StartCredits("music_file.ogg", true, "Category", "Entry", 3);
} 


And that would work greatly if the extra_english.lang file looked like:

Code: (Select All)

<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="Category">
<Entry Name="Entry">Thanks for playing my demo![br][br]Credits.[br]</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

You may have to change the above code to suit your extra_english.lang in terms of the Category and Entry.

Edit: Also, I remember seeing your code a while ago. You do not need StartDemoEnd();. That was more for Frictional Games rather than a Custom Story. You can try working with it, but it is not needed.

am i suppose to do anything special with the level door?

---

i leave the map to end the demo and when i click on the level door to leave it gives me an error and leaves the game. could it be cause i don't have a 5th level or something?

[Romulator]

Not really. If the StartCredits is in your OnLeave(), it should be okay.

If you end up with an error, just set a map for your Level Door to send the Player to.

OR.. Just add a timer..
Fadeout 3 seconds then after 3.5 seconds orso add a timr called
EndCredits for example and execute the script there?
I Always do it like that ..

what am i suppose to do with the door cause everytime i enter the level door it gives me an error, of course i have made no hps file for the level door that ends my demo. and i don't have a map made for for the level door cause i tried that once and it just loads me into the the 5th level.

this is very frustrating for me and weid cause i have never made an end nor have i used startcredits or demoend.

Try using an InteractCallback to initiate the credits rather than using OnLeave.
