1.
EXPLANATION
First of all, your probably
wondering what a script is, or does. A script is a .cfg file
that you can execute from within the game. For example, say
you wanted to run seven different commands quickly every time
you started the game. Well instead of having to waste all
that time and energy, because wasting energy sucks, you can
just write a script and then bind it to a key.
Here's an example script:
//start of script
helpusobi 1
give all
setforceall 3
sabercolor red
victory
//end of script
When you run this script, it
will give you everything, max out your force powers, turn
your light saber red, and make Kyle do his victory dance.
By the way, the two slashes
"//" are for adding a comment in your code. The
game wont run anything on that line followed by the slashes.
In order for the game to run
the script the file has to have the file extension cfg (name
of script.cfg), and it to be in the right place. You would
have to put the file in: install directory\GameData\base.
For me, the full directory was:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star
Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\base
2.
MAKING A SCRIPT
Open a new text and copy the
sample script in it. After you save it, rename the file to
"sample.cfg"
Then move the file into the
directory\GameData\base.
Now start the game. Once your
in, press Shift + ~ to access the console. Type "exec
sample.cfg"
Now you should have everything,
your force powers maxed, a red saber, and of course, the victory
dance.
There's still more. Go back
into the console and type:
"bind h exec sample.cfg"
Now when you hit h, it will
execute the script.
3.
MORE ADVANCED SCRIPTS
There are two functions you
should know about before you start writing advanced scripts,
echo, set and vstr.
ECHO
The echo command is pretty
simple, it will output white text at the top of the screen.
echo <text>
Example:
//echo example
echo FIRE
//end
FIRE would appear at the top
of the screen.
SET & VSTR
You can use the alias command
to define custom commands.
Syntax:
- set <variable> <value>
- The variable would be the
new command and the value would be the effect (commands
to exec).
- vstr <variable>
- The variable would be the
command you set with 'set.'
Example:
//Example Alias: Change Saber
Color When You Attack
set red "sabercolor red"
bind m "vstr red"
//end
Yeah, yeah, yeah...I know there
are easier ways this can be done, but this is just an example
of how to use the set and vstr functions.
SABER COLOR MENU
//Saber Color Script
echo Choose Saber Color
echo F1=[RED] F2=[BLUE] F3=[GREEN] F4=[YELLOW] F5=[ORANGE]
F6=[PURPLE]
set color1 "sabercolor
red; echo Saber Color Changed To Red"
set color2 "sabercolor blue; echo Saber Color Changed
To Blue"
set color3 "sabercolor green; echo Saber Color Changed
To Green"
set color4 "sabercolor yellow; echo Saber Color Changed
To Yellow"
set color5 "sabercolor orange; echo Saber Color Changed
To Orange"
set color6 "sabercolor purple; echo Saber Color Changed
To Purple"
bind F1 "vstr color1"
bind F2 "vstr color2"
bind F3 "vstr color3"
bind F4 "vstr color4"
bind F5 "vstr color5"
bind F6 "vstr color6"
//end
