Hello, this is a tutorial and making ammo racks for Wolfenstein 3D, this is designed to allow you to make a wall that can be used to get ammo off of then draw the next wall image to make it look like it's empty.

EDIT: Bug found, if you used this prior to 1/5/05 then please look for the red print in the code!!

Examples:
Before
After

This feature was not made made by me, member "Joe" shared this with me on AIM and I thought I'd share it with you!


Note: this tutorial can be changed to give other things too, instead of GiveAmmo, it could be GiveWeapon or HealSelf.

Ok enough chat, let's start

Open WL_AGENT.C and located the following block:

::: CODE :::

if (!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum == ELEVATORTILE && elevatorok)
   {
   //
   // use elevator
   //
      buttonheld[bt_use] = true;

      tilemap[checkx][checky]++;      // flip switch
      if (*(mapsegs[0]+farmapylookup[player->tiley]+player->tilex) == ALTELEVATORTILE)
         playstate = ex_secretlevel;
      else
         playstate = ex_completed;
      SD_PlaySound (LEVELDONESND);
      SD_WaitSoundDone();
   }
   else if (!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum & 0x80)
   {
      buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
      OperateDoor (doornum & ~0x80);
   }
   else
      SD_PlaySound (DONOTHINGSND);

}

2. Modify to look like this:

::: CODE :::

if (!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum == ELEVATORTILE && elevatorok)
   {
   //
   // use elevator
   //
      buttonheld[bt_use] = true;

      tilemap[checkx][checky]++;      // flip switch
      if (*(mapsegs[0]+farmapylookup[player->tiley]+player->tilex) == ALTELEVATORTILE)
         playstate = ex_secretlevel;
      else
       playstate = ex_completed;
      SD_PlaySound (ERLAUBENSND);
      SD_WaitSoundDone();

   }
   // Ammo Rack
   if(!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum == 1)  // Important! Change 1 to the wall Id that you want to be displayed open floedit and check, for example, 1 is first wall, then when used the second image of the first wall is displayed. You may need to play around with this.   
                {
   buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
   if(gamestate.ammo >= 99) // or what ever your ammo limit is
                return;
   tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
   SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
   GiveAmmo (25); // Change to your liking!
   StartBonusFlash();
   }
   else if (!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum & 0x80)
   {
      buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
      OperateDoor (doornum & ~0x80);
   }
   else      
                   SD_PlaySound (DONOTHINGSND);

}

Done! Compile and Link up and test it. Please post any errors or mistakes I may have made, I have this feature in my Tc so it works for me, please do tell me of any compiling errors.
This tutorial is now official.

That Code Will be good for the My Mod

[lucky_foot]

LOL. I guess I can test it for ya.

[KyleRTCW]

Has anyone tried it yet? Does it work??
I have the code in my TC so it should work.

[Hair Machine]

Well... it looks exactly the same as my code - so I guess it should work. By a brilliant process of logic.

[lucky_foot]

Okay, Lucky Foot here. I just tested the code above for my new TC that is in process and the Code DOES work without any changes to it. I can officially say that it works.


Great job.

[KyleRTCW]

Thanks for testing it lucky, this code is now official

Is it possible to change a thing to this code?

Because now you can get ammo as much as you wish, but when you have full ammo, and than try to get ammo the wall is empty. But when you never have full ammo you can get every time again ammo on the wall.

Is het possible that you can just ammo for one time?

[KyleRTCW]

I can't exactly understand what you are saying, your sentences are not clear. I just tested in Todpfad and I tested for what I interepted from your message (taking ammo from the wall twice) and I cannot take it more than once even without full ammo.

Please, if you are having a problem, please tell me specificly whats going on.

Sorry for my bad english, but you interepted it well! That's exactly what i mean. I can get the ammo from the walls every time again and again.

Don't know what I did wrong. I didn't change anything of the code, just copied it.

If you have a little time: here's my source code: http://members.home.nl/l.euser/Bramaldo_Source2.zip

[Haasboy]

I've just had a look at your source, and everything looks norm, there's no way that you'd be able to get the ammo twice even with full ammo.

[Guest]

If I have 99 ammo, and than I push on the spacebar when I am at the ammowall, than it stops. But when I have 1 ammo, I can raise the ammo up to 99.

[thejosh]

if(gamestate.ammo >= 99) // or what ever your ammo limit is

try commenting out that line.

[Guest]

Thanks thejosh!

It works perfect now!

[KyleRTCW]

BUG FOUND!

When I was writing the tutorial, I missed one line of code.

Here is the fix:

add return; underneath if(gamestate.ammo >= 99)

so it looks like this:

::: CODE :::

// Ammo Rack
   if(!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum == 1)  // Important! Change 1 to the wall Id that you want to be displayed open floedit and check, for example, 1 is first wall, then when used the second image of the first wall is displayed. You may need to play around with this.   
                {
   buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
   if(gamestate.ammo >= 99) // or what ever your ammo limit is
                return;
   tilemap[checkx][checky]++;

In my tc i have include Kyle`s ammo racks. In my code though i put an objject modifier on the wall to define what you get with those racks.

Here is my code

Quote:

if(!buttonheld[bt_use] && doornum == 52) // Important! Change 1 to the wall Id that you want to be displayed open floedit and check, for example, 1 is first wall, then when used the second image of the first wall is displayed. You may need to play around with this.
{
switch(MAPSPOT(checkx,checky,1))
{
case 732: // give normal ammo and chaingun ammo
buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
GiveAmmo (25); // Change to your liking!
GiveChainAmmo (15);
StartBonusFlash();
break;
case 733: // gives a missile
buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
GiveMissile(1);
StartBonusFlash();
break;
case 734: // give a medipack
buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
HealSelf(25); // Change to your liking!
GiveMediAmmo(1);
gamestate.medipack = true;
StartBonusFlash();
break;
case 735: // gives silenced weapon ammo
buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
GiveStenAmmo(10);
StartBonusFlash();
break;
default: // gives normal ammo
buttonheld[bt_use] = true;
tilemap[checkx][checky]++;
SD_PlaySound(GETAMMOSND);
GiveAmmo (25); // Change to your liking!
StartBonusFlash();
}
}

Now change the number where it sais case 735 to define the identefier of the modifier,
You can add more cases or change some to give differtent results.
