[SP Mode] Adding more than 3 Lightsaberstyles to the HUD

[Darth Nukem]

Hi,

 

sorry for my bad english . I'm German.

I'm trying to add more than 3 Lightsaberstyles to the HUD.

 

That's what I 've done so far:

I edited the "single*.sab" Files and the "hud.Menu" File

single_1
{
	name		@MENUS_SINGLE_HILT1
	saberType	SABER_SINGLE
	saberModel	"models/weapons2/saber_1/saber_1.glm"
	soundOn		"sound/weapons/saber/saberon.wav"
	soundLoop	"sound/weapons/saber/saberhum4.wav"
	soundOff	"sound/weapons/saber/saberoff.wav"
	saberLength	40
	saberColor	random
	saberstylelearned fast
	saberstylelearned medium
	saberstylelearned strong
	saberstylelearned tavion
}

"hud.Menu"

// Saber style graphics
		itemDef 
		{
			name				saberstyle_strong
			background			"gfx/hud/saber_strong"
			forecolor			1 1 1 1
			rect				-49 24 26 26			
		}		

		itemDef 
		{
			name				saberstyle_medium
			background			"gfx/hud/saber_med"
			forecolor			1 1 1 1
			rect				-70 43 26 26			
		}		

		itemDef 
		{
			name				saberstyle_fast
			background			"gfx/hud/saber_fast"
			forecolor			1 1 1 1
			rect				-85 69 24 24			
		}
		
		itemDef 
		{
			name				saberstyle_tavion
			background			"gfx/hud/saber_tavion"
			forecolor			1 1 1 1
			rect				-85 69 24 24			

and I created a new .tga file."

I zipped my edited Files and placed the new *.pk3 File in my base Directory. But it is not working.

 

I do not know what I did wrong. Can someone give me a few tips/hints?

The hud is pretty much completely hardcoded. You can change existing items but you can't add anything without code edits

Unfortunely almost 75% of JKA things can be changed  only with coding. Hud is one of these. : \

This topic is similar to one I just posted about the option to have more than 1 lightsaber on/off sound. Does such a thing involve coding too?

Yes. :\
