[Code] Adding a Silencer + Extras

[Code] Adding a Silencer + Extras
Hello, welcome to my forth tutorial here at WolfPlanet Forums In this tutorial, I will be showing you how to add a silencer to the pistol and also how to make the silencer wear down and eventually the player must find a new one. You may need to adjust this tutorial based on your Game. Read on. Step 1: Open up WL_DEF.H and do a search for: keys; You should see this:

int			ammo;
	int			keys;
	weapontype		bestweapon,weapon,chosenweapon;

Below Add:

int silencer;
int silencertime;

Step 1: Open WL_ACT1.C and change the puddle for example to this: {SPR_STAT_0,bo_alpo}, // puddle Step 2: Open WL_AGENT.C and do a search for GunAttack You should see this:

void	GunAttack (objtype *ob)
{
	objtype *check,*closest,*oldclosest;
	int		damage;
	int		dx,dy,dist;
	long	viewdist;

	switch (gamestate.weapon)
	{
	case wp_pistol:
		SD_PlaySound (ATKPISTOLSND);
		break;
	case wp_machinegun:
		SD_PlaySound (ATKMACHINEGUNSND);
		break;
	case wp_chaingun:
		SD_PlaySound (ATKGATLINGSND);
		break;
	}

	madenoise = true;

Change the gamestate.weapon part to:

switch (gamestate.weapon)
	{
	case wp_pistol:
		if (!gamestate.silencer)
		{
		SD_PlaySound (ATKPISTOLSND);
		madenoise = true;
                                }
		else
		SD_PlaySound (YOUSNDSND); // Silenced Sound
		break;
	case wp_machinegun:
		SD_PlaySound (ATKMACHINEGUNSND);
		madenoise = true;
		break;
	case wp_chaingun:
		SD_PlaySound (ATKGATLINGSND);
		madenoise = true;
		breakl
	}

       //	madenoise = true;

Step 3: Now do a search for case 1: You should see this:

case 1:
			if (!gamestate.ammo)
			{	// can only happen with chain gun
				gamestate.attackframe++;
				break;
			}
			GunAttack (ob);
			gamestate.ammo--;
			DrawAmmo ();
			break;

Change it to this:

case 1:
			if (!gamestate.ammo)
			{	// can only happen with chain gun
				gamestate.attackframe++;
				break;
			}
			GunAttack (ob);
			gamestate.ammo--;
switch (gamestate.weapon)
{
  case wp_pistol:
   if (gamestate.silencer)
   {
     gamestate.silencertime += 1; // Add to the wearing dowm
     if (gamestate.silencertime >= 45)
    {
      gamestate.silencer = 0; // No more silencer
      gamestate.silencertime = 0; // Wear down resets
    }
}
break;
}

DrawAmmo ();
break;

Step 4: Now go up to the GetBonus function and change bo_alpo to this:

case	bo_alpo:
SD_PlaySound (BONUS1SND);
gamestate.silencer = 1;
gamestate.silencertime = 0;
break;

Step 5: Open up WL_GAME.C and search for if (gamestate.lives > -1) Add this above gamestate.health = 100; located just below the searched line

gamstate.silencer = 0;
gamestate.silencertime = 0;

Now it looks like

if (tedlevel == false)	// SO'S YA DON'T GET KILLED WHILE LAUNCHING!
gamestate.lives--;

if (gamestate.lives > -1)
{
gamestate.silencer = 0;
gamestate.silencertime = 0;
gamestate.health = 100;
gamestate.weapon = gamestate.bestweapon
= gamestate.chosenweapon = wp_knife;
[...]

Step 6: Open WL_MAIN.C and do a search for NewGame Add this below memset (&gamestate,0,sizeof(gamestate));

gamestate.silencer = 0;
gamestate.silencertime = 0;

Compile and Make, now you should have a good silencer.
