Problem 3 : ( Giving a custom item function ) *SOLVED*

Spoiler below!

Basic: GiveItem(name, type, subType, image, amount);

Problem: How can i add a custom to be given to the player when using a knife item on another entity?

Here is my script , but i couldn't know how to make the player get an item when using the knife on the entity.


void UsedKnifeOnPig(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)

{

GiveItem(Key_0, puzzle, subType, image, amount); //<---- The problem

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "attack_claw_hit.snt", "piggy", 0, false);

SetSwingDoorLocked("Locked_door0", false, true);

RemoveItem("pig_knife");

}

Solution: GiveItem("stone_hammer_chipper", "Puzzle", "stone_hammer_chipper", "stone_hammer_chipper.tga", 0);

stone_hammer_chipper: Change it to you'r items name
stone_hammer_chipper.tga: The image of the item inside the inventory

Problem 4 : ( Playing music not working ) *SOLVED*

Spoiler below!

Problem: The function: PlaySoundAtEntity( Scream1 , Scream1.ogg, Deadbody_1 , 2.0f, false);
is not working , i get an error " Scream1 is not declared and Deadbody_1 is not declared.

Solution: Function: PlaySoundAtEntity( "Scream1" , "Scream1.snt", "Deadbody_1" , 2.0f, false);
Scream1: The sound's name
Scream1.snt: The sound file's .snt file
Deadbody_1: The entity to play the sound from
2.0f: Time til the sound fades

To play you'r .ogg files you need a .snt file so create a new text document and write this in:


<SOUNDENTITY>
<SOUNDS>
<Main>
<Sound File="Scream1" />
</Main>
</SOUNDS>
<PROPERTIES Volume="5" MinDistance="1" MaxDistance="20" Random="1" Interval="0" FadeEnd="False" FadeStart="False" Stream="False" Loop="False" Use3D="True" Blockable="True" BlockVolumeMul="0.5" Priority="0" />
</SOUNDENTITY>

Change Scream1 to the sound file's name from the script

And then save the file as Scream1.snt


(And Of course change scream1 to sound's name)
