Images Uploading
 

Does anyone know the script so images are automatically uploaded for ALL players and not just you...I uploaded a hat but only i can see it.

What are you talking about? You have to upload the image into the FTP where the folder options have correctly been set to allow players to download them to their computers automatically.

I talked with LordZen (Global GFX Admin) and he said i need to make a script because a hat i made was only being seen by myself and him.

No there not uploaded to all players... i learned this when i was the GFx Admin on Endora

You need a gani, I assume, as everyone can see the gani so that will trigger the download for them to see the image...

Alright..I understand it now.Thanks.

nobody cares that you were GFX Admin on endora...

So long as the image:

-is shown on your character or on some NPC that a player 'sees'
-exists on the server somewhere within levels/
-'s parent directory is listed in the folder configuration with a file entry

It will be downloaded from the server by the player that 'sees' it.

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about?

Alright...Thanks man.

Anyone know the problem?

Um, to which directory did you upload the graphic?

He has, it's in harmony with one of your three points; the other player 'sees' it and gets it downloaded x-x'

what an awesome reply, but really you should read the thread, that was to spark

levels/hats/*

Is that folder in the folder config?

Better yet, what is in your folder config?

I bet that is what the problem was. I have never known a server to not have the correct folder config information for basic folders, so that didnt even cross my mind.

Even after I left, I was still not seeing the image, and I think you only started to see it after you manually added it to your hard drive's graal hats folder. I suggested maybe trying to add a script that will force the download of new gfx like how g2k2 did for the new trees, thats all.

Also, spark, the basic classic ganis already have hats in them. All he would have to do is set the image for that player attribute through script. Other hats were working at the time this was going on.

...? there isn't a 'force download for new trees' thing.. you just walk into a level with the trees and it happens

Heh...I found out it was my folder configuration...I had it as levels level/hats/*........I fixed to level levels/hats/*

It's not even supposed to be levels/hats/*, only hats/*

And shouldn't it be file, not levels?

like: file hats/* ?

Condition 3 of my initial post apparently failed.

The proper folder configuration entry for the right

rw levels/hats/*

would be:

file hats/*

Was not that what I said? O.o

Im pretty sure i remember someone telling me images wont upload unless there within levels configuration.

So if thats right,how could it be hats/*?

It was. Or ment to be

Anything that goes into the folder configuration is a subfolder of the levels folder.

Add the right: rw levels/hats/* to yourself.

We are not playing Jeopardy here in the scripting forum - solutions should not come in the form of questions. Yours was. Additionally, I needed to explain which condition failed and caused the problem.

Lance is right, just list what he did wrong and the ways to fix it, no questions.

And btw, don't bother adding a line for the guilds folder.

And I have a question of my own, does the root levels folder have to be in folder cfg for ipbanned.txt to work?
