A few questions about the mod I'm making

[Akira303]

hi

Im making a mod and it's coming along great but I really could use a little help from some of you more experienced modders..I have a few questions, if you can answer any of them that would be awesome

1.) Some of the maps will be a quite dark night time...I would like to include night vision in my mod by enabling the line of code in _class.gsc " self _SetActionSlot( 1, "nightvision" );" ... but is it possible to not have this option enabled ALL the time. I would like to make it a deathstreak bonus or maybe make it so that you can only toggle night vision when you have UAV.

2.)Is it possible to make the options menu un-available in a modded game? so players can't just turn up the brightness on the darker night time maps.

3.)Is it possible to give everyone the Sniper class so they have Ghillie suits (and make the other classes including custom.. un-selectable)

4.)Is it possible to give people who join my modded game default exp points lvl increase etc... all the _rank.gsc's I've tried using don't give any at all..

at your first point, did you saw my new mod? it's perfect for ur mod

=) Search for Day 'n' Night mod

thankyou for the reply and yes I tried it..very cool but the problem is I don't want the players to be able to toggle night vision whenever they want (kind of defeats the purpose of having a night time map because everyone will just be running around using night vision)

I would like to make it so that the players can only toggle night vision when they have got the UAV killstreak or when they have death streak copycat (and it will only last untill they kill someone) (my mod is hardcore mode and I have set the killstreaks to be UAV/Care Package with high probability of EMP/Stealth Bomber and the deathstreak is copycat..it is a sniper only mod so copycat is void...as I have given everyone the same perks/weapon etc

So the code would have to be something like

if(killstreak=UAV) then allow self _SetActionSlot( 1, "nightvision" ) true
else false..

but I dont know how to code it properly

hmmm... Well what u might want is to add Nightvision whenever a special event occurs. Meh, if i were you i wouldnt add Nightvision at all...ruins the game

[Akira303]

yeah I think Im gonna leave it out...novelty wore off pretty quick

Some help with my other questions would be great (especially 3. & 4. ...anybody?)

3.)Is it possible to give everyone the Sniper class so they have Ghillie suits (and make the other classes including custom.. un-selectable)

Yes this is possible

4.)Is it possible to give people who join my modded game default exp points lvl increase etc... all the _rank.gsc's I've tried using don't give any at all..

Impossible due to the fact that when ever you inject a mod into AlterIWnet it will not allow you to have exp challenges or anything unlocked

3.)Is it possible to give everyone the Sniper class so they have Ghillie suits (and make the other classes including custom.. un-selectable)

Yes this is possible

Do you know how to do this or you just know it's possible? If you know how to do it could you please share that info with me or point me in the right direction.

What!?!
This isn't even C++
But it's based off of C++ and C#.

and the point of those 2 replies was...??

can anyone help me with my question

how can I give everyone the Sniper class so they have Ghillie suits (and make the other classes including custom.. un-selectable)

[Chijiru]

All is possible except for 4) cuz I really didn't understand what you mean.

[Akira303]

ok so you're the second person that's told me it's possible and not actually given me any help...replies like this I could do without.

as for 4.. I was pretty clear, english is not your native language?

once more..
