Script it, look in maps/mp/gametypes/_hud.gsc

People can't hold your hand and do everything for you. If they do, you won't learn anything.

Good luck.

Thanks for the script. Specify the correct path where to put this script?

Server writes an error! What did I do wrong? That's my way ===> /main/localized_english_iw07.iwd#uzip/maps/mp/gametypes/_hud.gsc

Error: unknown function: (file 'maps/mp/gametypes/_rank.gsc', line 1000)

self.hud_rankscroreupdate thread maps\mp\gametypes\_hud::fontPulse( self );

[Lossy 1]

The error explains itself, in the _rank.gsc it's trying to call something from another gsc which appears to be _hud.gsc calling a function from it known as "fontPulse();" but it's missing, so therefor it can't find it and it's causing that error you've just posted, re-add that function back into the _hud.gsc and the error will fix itself. - That's the easy way.

Otherwise you'll have to edit the _rank.gsc and fix the error (which i do not suggest unless you have reason to edit the xp display you get when killing people/capping objects etc...)

The default fontPulse function

fontPulse(player)

{

    self notify ( "fontPulse" );

    self endon ( "fontPulse" );

    player endon("disconnect");

    player endon("joined_team");

    player endon("joined_spectators");


    scaleRange = self.maxFontScale - self.baseFontScale;


    while ( self.fontScale < self.maxFontScale )

    {

        self.fontScale = min( self.maxFontScale, self.fontScale + (scaleRange / self.inFrames) );

        wait 0.05;

    }


    while ( self.fontScale > self.baseFontScale )

    {

        self.fontScale = max( self.baseFontScale, self.fontScale - (scaleRange / self.outFrames) );

        wait 0.05;

    }

}

Default hud.gsc
