Create Zone names

Post by 19_Steve_89 »

I want to create zone names which appear in the game wenn i come into the zone.
I now i have to create an information zone but it doesn´t works.
Do i have to write something in the script?
Also the Radio in the cars doesn`t function. I have the version 10.3.
With an other version it works.

Example scripts:

http://gtamp.com/GTA2/maps/


Actually i think Sektor should add to each description of maps there if MIS source is included or not.
This reduces number of pointless downloads. You want some MIS source quickly but you don't know which map has it and which not.
So you have to download every of them to finally find this out.

And traffic costs money.

If you want to show zone names in game you need to create a Navigation Zone with the name you want to be shown.
You just lost the game.

Navigation zones, not Information zones.

Still, if you need an information zone at that place, just create a navigation zone on top of the information one.

Are you using information zones or navigation zones? Both should work, but I too have experienced some trouble with information zones, so it's probably better to use navigation zones like the default maps.
The districts use navigation zones with codenames (like "m15"). The game displays the name that is associated with that code in the GXT file. This method isn't actually necessary: simply naming the zones in the map editor should work. I have no idea what the benefits of using the GXT file for this are.

Apart from the user made maps Gustavob showed you, you could download the uncompiled Industrial District scripts (included with the compiler and MIS Pad downloads at GTAMP)
Also the Radio in the cars doesn`t function. I have the version 10.3.
With an other version it works.
Is the CD-rom in the drive? Version 9.6F (free full version, download here) plays the music from your hard drive, you might want to try it.

Reading from GXT means the zones can have different names in different languages. I don't know if GTA2 actually changes any of the place names in other languages, it wouldn't match the map or english tutorials, so it would be confusing.

It does change in other languages, or at least in spanish.

If you select spanish, Azeri Heights becames "Altos de Azeri", Tabernacle becames "Tabernaculo" and some other areas are also translated. Check e.gxt and s.gxt and you'll see.
