Hi,

I was wondering how to add a message on the screen thats always there, I dont mean like a ticker or anything...I mean like with the foresight mod, theres always the "foresight Ver. 1.6" at the bottom left of the screen in red. Is it possible to do this with any words you want?

Not sure what game you're talking about, but that tag is produced by the mod itself in CoD (all flavors), for example. The text can usually be changed within the actual mod .iwd file.

For example, in worm's powerserver, there is a provision for showing/changing the tag (it on the lower-right, though) by editing the _messagecenter.gsc file within the mod's .iwd file. Connect to my server (CoD2) at 67.19.54.189, and look in the lower-right corner...you'll see my web site URL.

I'm not sure how your mod has set this up, so you may hav eto hunt for the tag line, but it's probably in a .gsc file somewhere in the mod's .iwd file.

Be aware that you have to be a little careful modifying a .iwd, or any file within it...you could really screw up your mod, and server.

Foresight is a Medal of Honor tool. They provide info here (http://www.rconforesight.net/). MOH does not provide this capability out of the box, but you can check out what foresight may offer in this manner. They probably won't overwrite their own logo, but it may have other options that will meet your needs.

I dont want to overwrite their logo. I just wanted to know If its possible to make a script that would do this, possibly in other parts of the screen as well

You really want to use a tool that makes it easy unless you want to write your own. In that case you should check out the old MAM tool . It used a script hook to do some messages that had various controls. You might also research the Q3TA engine since its the basis of MOHAA, but that is way beyond what I can help you with. :)

Thanks, I'll try it ;)
