Where is it in the Kyle.cog about the player's speed on walking,running and jumping. I wish to make a player that can run and walk faster, and jump higher than normal

Its not in the cog. Its in the walkplayer template.

Find the lines that say something to the order or 'Surfacedrag', and 'Airdrag'.

Make thier args lower, and the walkplayer will move faster.

Is that the same for his health?

[This message has been edited by Dash_rendar (edited November 23, 2001).]

Yes, but Ive never tried increasing the walkplayer max/min health args, so Im not sure.

I know this will sound stupid, but I haven't really done much editing with templates, what is a template and where do I find them?

Also, How do I put this into a gob?

The master.tpl file, in your project directory. In that file is a line referencing the 'walkplayer'. Edit it's args.

JED will gob it when you gob your level.

Ok I tried it, but I'm trying to make this for a modifaction. Is there a way to increase the speed and height for use with pre-existing levels?

Use Static.jkl

I think there is a turtorial on Massassi about it somewhere...

Ok I looked at the static.jkl, and all I see is the gravity, but it dosen't work when I set it to low. This is what it looks like

You have to add the templates manually.

As for the gravity, its a cinch to change that via cog.

Ok this is what I put down for my static.jkl,

But when I load it, All I can do is stay still. And when I put in fly(eriamjh) It says invalid Physics or something. But I can shoot. Whats going on, and how do I fix it?

To change the speed of you player use:

ParseArg(player, "maxvel=0.400000");

thats really slowif you want to change it back you'll have to find out what the original values for walkplayer are. Use TplMaker to get em' prob.

--==CWE_Darth_Opie==--

Geez I forgot.
To set player gravity just use
ParseArg(player, "mass=somenumber");
that'll prob change it without changing the gravity of the entire level. Didn't test it though

pretty sure that if a player had a mass of 0
they'd fly when the jump

wanna change the max health when you activate a switch?
ParseArg(player, "maxhealth=400.00");
lol

If you look at Jerecs template I believe his maxhealth is 1000 hehehe

Yeah - take a look at Max's template.

A health of 5000 our young Jedi has, hmmmmmm?

heheh i forgot max exhisted! no wonder the thing never dies!!

Bah! You can kill him, just shove him off a cliff...


...Or push him onto a "Deathsurface"...


...Or use that mod that makes the crossbow shoot 50+ force destruction...


...Or just disable the AI, and pour evrything you have into that thing...

------------------
Success is the inverse relationship between effort, gain, and loss.

Is still dosen't work I think I messed up on pasteing my template into the static.jkl or something.

I would suggest, trying it first in a level's mater TPL, just to get the hang of it, then moving on to the Static.jkl.

You might have slipped up somewhere along the line, keep trying, youll get it...

It works in the master.tpl when I load a Level with a Jed, But I'm still having trouble with the static.

Here it is again

I just don't know what I'm doing wrong in the templates, like I said It stands in an idle postion, it's like his ability to move has expired, here is a link to a picture

http://www.geocities.com/ikemanproductions/index.html

I see your problem. Your not defining "_actor".


Any resource used in a template has to be defined before the template.

In other words, copy in the "_actor" template as well, and place it before the walkplayer template.

Why don't you try tplmaker from codealliance? It's pretty cool. You know what sucks though? When JKII comes out we're all going to be very lost.

--==CWE_Darth_Opie==--
I need my old username back.
I'll never join a clan again seeing as how mine is defunct, unless it's my clan!

When I change something it dosen't work, I put _actor in from the master.tpl, I think I'm just gonna forget about it, I'm having to much troble with it anyway

Try this one. I know it works. Modify it to your needs.
