hey tdog my question is how do you properly get the right click thing on Eclipse Stable to work properly i had put a hide script in but it wouldn't work although it didn't give me errors it just wouldn't work but yet after i did that rigght click was working i take it out and right click stopped working again help

[Tdogthedog]

Fallen right click and hotkeys are handled by the source which i'm good at vb 2008 but not vb6  so srry i can't help…but you can try the source forums or type it into search bar..

how is it visual basic if it is just a script i thought it is the same as basic just with physical objects i do program visual basic im just not very good yet

@DRR:

> how is it visual basic if it is just a script i thought it is the same as basic just with physical objects i do program visual basic im just not very good yet

scripts deal with the player and the game its self.. Source is all the codes for when a button is pressed and what it does or clicks..

[DRR]

o okay and what do u mean by that your not sprite 10

[Tdogthedog]

because right now it has this…

Call SetPlayerSprite(Index, 10)

which means when you type /mount it turns you into sprite 10

[DRR]

what if the sprite is in big sprites

[Tdogthedog]

the 10 in the code is the sprite number.. the sprite number is how many sprites down.. so if you want it to change do a different sprite all you have to do is change the 10

Edit: srry miss read.. hmm… big sprites i'm pretty sure can only be npc's unless you change the source..

@DRR:

> what if the sprite is in big sprites

Nope, you can't.

You'd have to do a source edit.

okay welll how can i add the mounted sprite to the sprite and not big sprite

[Tdogthedog]

well you can change a sprite to a sprite with the player on the mount

@DRR:

Copy and Paste it in Paint BUT then it will only show half the sprite as a time.

[DRR]

[Ruins of Hell]

Send a copy to me. I'll try and fix it.

[Tdogthedog]

rather than posting help here, you should make a tutorial for the eclipse contest, you could win prizes for this kind of thing
