I've set the max in items.dat to 500, but the shields refuse to display over 200. I PrintInt(GetInv(player, 60)); and that gives me more than 200, but the green numbers in the lowerleft coner refuse to go over 200! How can I get around this?

you can't, in JK. I believe in MotS it is possible, though.

/me beats the binary poop out of JK.exe

I did...... something...... a long time ago and got it to display over 200, but that wasn't with SetInv or ChangeInv....

Back in the day with Manowars II they had the same problem, of course most of the Manowars team is looooooong gone.

Well it's the display of the BM's... but I dunno can that be fixed cause I don't know how to make HUD's.

I suggest try printint(getinv(player, 60)) when the takes damage and after a certain amount of time if(getinv(player, 60) > 200 (if player has more than 200 shield), but try not to overwhelm the HUD with such messages.

Similarly, I also have a HUD display problem in my upcoming SP level series for the grenade launcher, which it displays the number of grenade launchers you have (1) instead of number of grenades you have, when the grenade launcher is used on weapon slot 8. To remedy the problem I made JK print number of grenades the player have when the weapon is selected or when it shoots.

Maul, what do you mean by "Well it's the display of the BM's... "???

I want to use the Shield numbers for something other than shields, and requires up to the second displaying. Oh well, I'll just stick with the ammo nums.

The way the JK engine handles the BM code limits it from displaying anything above 200. There's no way to get around it.

Yes there is. I've played the DBZ JK v3 and that has numbers over 200. Go play, you might find out how they did it.

Thanks Gambit.

(see, I'm not crazy, I did do it somehow )
