Does anyone know how to make text saying Location, time year etc because I want to use something like that for my map, any help would be good

Scrolling text or intro text like verruct or missions in Help Desk

In YOUR_MAP_NAME.gsc, paste this at the very bottom:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

intro_screen()
{

	flag_wait( "all_players_connected" );
	wait(2);
	level.intro_hud = [];
	for(i = 0;  i < 3; i++)
	{
		level.intro_hud[i] = newHudElem();
		level.intro_hud[i].x = 0;
		level.intro_hud[i].y = 0;
		level.intro_hud[i].alignX = "left";
		level.intro_hud[i].alignY = "bottom";
		level.intro_hud[i].horzAlign = "left";
		level.intro_hud[i].vertAlign = "bottom";
		level.intro_hud[i].foreground = true;

		if ( level.splitscreen && !level.hidef )
		{
			level.intro_hud[i].fontScale = 2.75;
		}
		else
		{
			level.intro_hud[i].fontScale = 1.75;
		}
		level.intro_hud[i].alpha = 0.0;
		level.intro_hud[i].color = (1, 1, 1);
		level.intro_hud[i].inuse = false;
	}
	level.intro_hud[0].y = -110;
	level.intro_hud[1].y = -90;
	level.intro_hud[2].y = -70;


	level.intro_hud[0] settext("LOCATION HERE");
	level.intro_hud[1] settext("DATE HERE");

	for(i = 0 ; i < 3; i++)
	{
		level.intro_hud[i] FadeOverTime( 3.5 ); 
		level.intro_hud[i].alpha = 1;
		wait(1.5);
	}
	wait(1.5);
	for(i = 0 ; i < 3; i++)
	{
		level.intro_hud[i] FadeOverTime( 3.5 ); 
		level.intro_hud[i].alpha = 0;
		wait(1.5);
	}	
	//wait(1.5);
	for(i = 0 ; i < 3; i++)
	{
		level.intro_hud[i] destroy();
	}
}

And then at the top of the gsc file, paste this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	level thread intro_screen();

under:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

main()
{

Hope this helps!
