qreeves {l Wrote}:From time to time we all need a hand with something we're working on, especially in something as large and collaborative as Red Eclipse. Here, I would like to introduce you to the "Help Wanted" thread. Rather than create a new topic each time we're looking for someone to help us out with something, we can post here. I will probably use it to ask the community for help with something I can't get done normally, you may all use it to work on your submissions, be they maps, mods, or ideas.
qreeves {l Wrote}:I'd like to have at least one map with a "Red Eclipse" theme.
ballist1c {l Wrote}:Count the number of weapons, grenades, and rockets in any of these maps, and post them here:
quintux_v {l Wrote}:would there be a way (for future use) to use some kind of entselect command to select all of those and discover the # of each?
greaserpirate {l Wrote}:Here are the scrrenshots

printweapons = [
entcancel // clear the entity selection
entfind weapon // find all weapons and select them
entloop [ // loop over the entities selected
text = (entget) // get the full representation of the entity (space separated values)
id = (at $text 2) // need the "id" attribute from the text
echo (format "found: %1" (at $weapname $id)) // tell everyone all about it
]

qreeves {l Wrote}:.. and to get the ball rolling: We need a "Red Eclipse" sky box (think how "Halo" has the halo in the sky). I'd like to have at least one map with a "Red Eclipse" theme.
Dratz-_C {l Wrote}:Ulukai,
Here is another try at it.
Cheers

Something along the lines of:
- {l Code}: {l Select All Code}
printweapons = [
entcancel // clear the entity selection
entfind weapon // find all weapons and select them
entloop [ // loop over the entities selected
text = (entget) // get the full representation of the entity (space separated values)
id = (at $text 2) // need the "id" attribute from the text
echo (format "found: %1" (at $weapname $id)) // tell everyone all about it
]
]
Ulukai {l Wrote}:Is something like this what you were thinking of? Tell me if you want more / less / bigger / smaller stars or mist. Or more planets would be possible eventually as well.
quintux_v {l Wrote}:
Wow, that was quick. Maybe this code could be integrated into some kind of section of a map's cfg file which describes the map? Would be useful for the wiki.
Ulukai {l Wrote}:I started all over again to make a more subtle skybox and used the newly provided images for this. There are 2 versions attached so everyone can try it out for themselves. Both versions are basically the same, except from the image of the Red Eclipse.
