I THINK I fixed it but I don't really know for sure cause I copied the wake up thing from Nepsis and adjusted it to fit my map... unfourtunently.. and ofc... it makes serveral errors:
FATAL ERROR:
main 5,6 Expected (
main 19,6 Expected (
main 61,6 Expected (
main 66,6 Expected ( (Kinda satanic 1... lol)
The script looks like this:
//Run at the start of the game.
void OnGameStart()
{
//Intro
void Intro()
{
SetPlayerActive(false);
SetPlayerCrouching(true);
FadeOut(0);
AddTimer("TIntro0",0,"Intro2");
AddTimer("TIntro4",4,"Intro2");
AddTimer("TIntro6",6,"Intro2");
AddTimer("TIntro9",9,"Intro2");
AddTimer("TIntro10",10,"Intro2");
AddTimer("TIntro15",15,"Intro2");

}

void Intro2(string &in asTimer)
{
if(asTimer == "TIntro0")
{
PlayGuiSound("react_breath_slow",1);
MovePlayerHeadPos(-0.4f,-0.5f,0,50,1);
FadeRadialBlurTo(0.1f,0.1f);
FadeImageTrailTo(0.1f,0.1f);
SetRadialBlurStartDist(0.3f);
StartPlayerLookAt("IntroLook_1", 50, 50, "StopPlayerLookAt");
FadeIn(10);
}
else if(asTimer == "TIntro4")
{
StartPlayerLookAt("note1", 0.5f, 1, "");
StartPlayerLookAt("IntroLook_2", 0.5f, 1, "");
MovePlayerHeadPos(0,0,0,0.3f,1);
PlayGuiSound("react_sigh",1);
}
else if(asTimer == "TIntro6")
{
FadeOut(2);
PlayGuiSound("react_breath_slow",1);
}
else if(asTimer == "TIntro9")
{
FadeRadialBlurTo(0,3);
FadeImageTrailTo(0,3);
FadeIn(0.8f);
}
else if(asTimer == "TIntro10")
{

}
else if(asTimer == "TIntro15")
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
SetPlayerActive(true);
SetRadialBlurStartDist(0);
}
}

void StandTimer(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{

There are a great deal of problems with what you've done there. Know what would work much better? Taking your WakeUp functions, and sticking them in OnStart where appropriate, and using timers to set off delayed actions.
Compared to what this guy did for Nepsis, what you are trying to do is quite simple. I find it a little rude that you would ignore that advice, to be honest. This was obviously necessary for the series of things that the Nepsis developer wanted to happen. For you, it is not necessary, once you get the first set of things that you were trying to do before right (which you can by putting some in OnStart, and others set off in functions by timers), then you can test it and expand, test and expand again until yours looks like this. You won't be able to copy more complicated scripts and adjust them for your game correctly, until you know what the complicated script is doing

Nah, F that, I've spent too long trying to help you for you to give up now.

- Go back to how your script was, like on page 4 of this thread (copy and paste the script from page 4 if you don't have a backup before you added the nepsis stuff)
- Delete the whole of your 'void wakeUp()' function
- paste the lines below into the top of your 'OnStart()' function
- now run it, and see what happens


FadeOut(0);
FadeIn(20);
FadeImageTrailTo(2, 2);
FadeSepiaColorTo(100, 4);
SetPlayerActive(false);
FadePlayerRollTo(0, 2, 500);
FadeRadialBlurTo(0.15, 2);
SetPlayerCrouching(true);
AddTimer("trig1", 15.0f, "beginStory");

So uh, nothing is suppose to happen... alright..

[Adrianis]

...What do you mean? Did you try it and nothing happened, or did you not try it cause you don't want anything to happen?

... You got a good point there

Frankly, I'm in no position to disagree with your last point. However, you failed to say how it didn't work, so it's difficult to say why. I would do it for you, except that you said you wanted to learn how to script, so I'm not going to. I can help you, but not if you won't take advice

Just for reference,
