CODE

ffc script BossMusic {
  void run(int music, int music2) {
    Waitframes(5);
    if (Screen->NumNPCs() > 0) {
      Game->PlayMIDI(music);
    }
    while(Screen->NumNPCs() > 0) {
      Waitframe();
    }
    Game->PlayMIDI(music2);
  }
}

this FFC script is a script that when you enter the boss room it plays a certain MIDI and when you defeat it IT plays another one(preferibly the dmaps MIDI) i need help fixing the brackets in this script since it wont compile correctly onto ZQUEST.

It compiled fine for me without any problems. Could be the tabbing counts as well. (Also works flawlessly, but not sure how it'd work with FFC/Scripted bosses)

CODE

ffc script BossMusic {
    void run(int music, int music2) {
        Waitframes(5);
        if (Screen->NumNPCs() > 0) {
            Game->PlayMIDI(music);
        }
        while(Screen->NumNPCs() > 0) {
            Waitframe();
        }
        Game->PlayMIDI(music2);
    }
}

*steals script for his own quest. *

i dont know it just dont seem to compile on mines..it said error on line playMIDI or something..if it loads on yours then i dont know..it probably doesnt like me lol

[Sephiroth]

FYI: I'm using 864. If you aren't using this build, try upgrading to it and try importing/compiling again then. But be sure to keep backups of your quest.

[Christian]

yea that was the problem im using build 679 no wonder its a really outdated build lol i dont know i dont want to upgrade or not planning to anytime soon..

[Sephiroth]

Then I'm guessing build 679 doesn't support Game->PlayMIDI.

[Christian]

but there could be a way to modify the script and make it work on an older build ..ill probably ask a more experienced scripter for this.

[Eddard McHorn Van-Schnuder]

You know you don't need a script to do this?
You can just make it so that when the boss is supposed to appear, Link are warped to a copy of the screen, with the boss midi, then, when it's defeated, he's warped back to the original, or even better: ANOTHER copy, with the door you came into the room locked, and the door to proceed open.
Or isn't this what you're trying to do?

[Sephiroth]

He's probably trying to prevent Link's position indicator from hopping all over the place.

[Christian]

The thing is that i have shutters activated , and exactly what sephiroth said, the boss room is indicated . i tried that before and copied my entire dungeon map onto another and did a whole bunch of warps and ended up ruing the dungeon's boss room with all those warp points, i need the script to change the miniboss's room MIDI since it has the portal script and the dungeon's boss MIDI.

You will have to upgrade if you want to use Game->PlayMIDI. There's no other way to script it.

[Christian]

ill see if it works in build 798 then. thanks though

[Christian]

Just tested it and it works miracles so whoever wants to use this script and forget about all those warps link has to go through to change the music, is welcome to. i cant get enough of this script
