Fastfile Editing:
Getting Started:

Editing Black Ops Files:

The Fastfile (.ff) contains numerous files, Think of it as a .zip / package.
The most popular file within a Fastfile is the GSC,
Idk wtf that stands for, Game Script Code or something :D?
Anyway on the list to the left of either of the programs will be the GSC's inside
they fille be formatted in folders.
The recommended GSC to edit is the _challenges.gsc which is located:

PHP Code:

maps/mp/_challenges.gsc 


so just click it and it will open.
Now you can edit the code.

Once you have that mastered, You are ready to continue :D

Coding Basics for Black Ops:


Functions:
Functions are a group of code, you can execute them from other function and even send them values
A function looks like this

PHP Code:

FunctionName( Argument1, Argument2, Argument3 )
{

} 


FunctionName - This is the name of the function, you will use this to "call" it,
Calling a function means starting it.
Arguments - Argument is a value that can be passed to the function when calling it,
Arguments can be found between the () after the function name,
Each argument is seperated by commas. You don't have to use arguments,
a function without arguments would look like:

PHP Code:

FunctionName()
{

} 


{ } - These are the symbols that will contain all the function code.

Comments:
Comments are a section within coding that will get ignored, to start a comment just type:

PHP Code:

// 


And everything after that would be ignored until the start of the next line.
You can also make group comments, group comments start with:

PHP Code:

/* 


and will only end when it gets to:

PHP Code:

*/ 


Here and example of how comments can be used:

PHP Code:

/* Here is a comment group 
Remember groups dont end after a new
line it will only end when it finds */

Function1()
{
    //Heres a line comment
} 


In most Black Ops GSC's you will find a function with the name onPlayerConnect,
It will look like this:

PHP Code:

onPlayerConnect()
{
    for(;;)
    {
        level waittill( "connected", player );
        // The Code Differs Here
    }
} 


Anywhere under:

PHP Code:

level waittill( "connected", player ); 


you can put your code, this will execute after you connect (game starts)
you are able to make a function that will execute whenever you spawn by:
Adding:

PHP Code:

player thread OnPlayerSpawn(); 


into the OnPlayerConnect function
So it will look like this:

PHP Code:

onPlayerConnect()
{
    for(;;)
    {
        level waittill( "connected", player );
        // The Code Differs Here
        player thread OnPlayerSpawn();
    }
} 


Now you will need to create a function after this so start a new line and put:

PHP Code:

onPlayerSpawn()
{
    for(;;)
    {
        self waittill( "spawned_player" );
        // Code Here gets executed on spawn
    }
} 


When making code withing OnPlayerConnect,
You will reference to yourself as "player"
But elsewhere you will reference yourself as "self"
At the top of GSC's is a function with the name init,
This is the initialization function, which will load/prepare stuff for the game,
such as caching models (loading models),
In the init function may notice:

PHP Code:

level thread onPlayerConnect(); 


This is what starts OnPlayerConnect

Endon Function:
To stop your functions messing up when you die / disconnect you can add either of these to the start of a function:

PHP Code:

self endon ("disconnect");
self endon ("death"); 


Wait:
Wait is a simple line of code that will wait however long you want like so:

PHP Code:

wait 1; //Waits 1 second
wait 0.5;
wait 0.05; 


Calling Functions:
you can call a function like so:

PHP Code:

level thread functionName(); //Use this whenever
player thread functionName(); //Use this OnPlayerConnect
self thread functionName(); //Use this in your own functions 


Obviously dependant on where you are calling it from.
You can call functions from other GSC's by:

PHP Code:

self maps\mp\location\_gscname::Function(); 


Remember you dont put .gsc in this statement

Variables:
A variable is a stored value that you can set and get.
You can create a variable with a piece of simple code like this:

PHP Code:

String = "This Is The Value";
Integer = 5;
Boolean = true;
Array = ( 100, 200, 500 );
Array2 = ( "hello", "hey", "hi" ); 


String - Strings will hold a text value
Integer - Integers will only hold a numeric value
Boolean - Booleans are a true/false value
Array - Arrays is a group of values

If I create a variable within a function, I am unable to access it from another function:

PHP Code:

function1()
{
    MyVariable = ( 0, 0, 0 ); // Sets the Varaible named MyVariable
}

function2()
{
    self thread CallingAFunction( MyVariable ); // Tries to call a function with MyVariable as an argument
    //This wont work as it wont have access to the variable as its within another function.
} 


So how do we get around this?
You can save Variables to a self, player or level.
by simply adding it like so:

PHP Code:

self.Variable = "Hey";
level.Variable = "Oh Hai Der";
player.Variable = 1337; 


When setting a variable that you are able to access it anywhere.

If Statements:
An If statement if a group of code that will only execute if the check matches
heres the structure:

PHP Code:

if ( check )
{

} 


The check will compare 2 values, like so

PHP Code:

if ( self.Variable == 1 )
{
    //This will only execute if self.Variable = 1
} 


There are different operators that changes the comparison check

PHP Code:

==  // If its equal to
!=   // If its not equal to
<    // If its less than
<=  // If its less than or equal to
>    // If its more than
>=  // If its more than or equal to 


With If statements you can also have else which will execute if the check returns false
heres an example of an if with an else:

PHP Code:

if ( self.Variable == 1 )
{
    //This will only execute if self.Variable = 1
}
else
{
    //This will only execute if self.Variable != 1
} 


Select Case Statements:
The select statement is your #1 solution for not using lots of if statements,
for example:

PHP Code:

if ( self.Variable == 0 )
{
    // 0
}
if ( self.Variable == 1 )
{
    // 1
}
if ( self.Variable == 2 )
{
    // 2
} 


Can be easily transfered to a select statement like so:

PHP Code:

switch( self.Variable )
{
        case 0:
                //0
                break;
        case 1:
                //1
                break;
        case 2:
                //2
                break;
} 


While Statements:
A While statement is a group of code that will repeat forever, or until you want it to stop
While statements look like so:

PHP Code:

while ( Boolean )
{

} 


The code within it will keep repeating if the boolean = true;
heres an example of a continously running while statement:

PHP Code:

while ( 1 )
{
    //Repeated Code
    wait 0.05; //You need to put a short wait so it dont work like a b****
} 


For Statements:
A For statement is like a while, but has my precise repeating checks

PHP Code:

for( i=1; i<=3; i++ )
{
    //This code will get executed 3 times, with a 3 second delay between
    wait 3;
} 


so lets look at the top
for(i=1; i<=3; i++)
i=1; - Will declare the variable i, value 1
i<=3; - This is like the while check, if i is less than or equal to 3 it will execute
i++ - Wether the variable will increase or decrease every time it repeats ( i-- is to decrease )

Final:
Heres an example using some of the stuff above,

PHP Code:

onPlayerConnect()
{
    for(;;)
    {
        level waittill( "connected", player );
        // The Code Differs Here
        player thread OnPlayerSpawn();
    }
}
onPlayerSpawn()
{
    for(;;)
    {
        self waittill("spawned_player");
        self.Variable = false;
        self thread Function1();
        self thread Function2();
    }
}
Function1()
{
    self endon ("disconnect");
    self endon ("death");
    wait 10;
    self.Variable = true;
}
Function2()
{
    self endon ("disconnect");
    self endon ("death");
    while ( 1 )
    {
        if (self.Variable = true)
        {
            self.origin = self.origin + ( 0, 100, 0 );
        }
        else
        {
            self.origin = self.origin + ( 0, 250 ,0 );
        }
        wait 1;
    }
} 


What that will do, Is every second, it will make your origin 100 units higher,
until 10 seconds in, Then every second, it will make your origin 250 units higher,
Can you figure that out?

Hope this part has helped some people :D

I think this here is also helpful. It was made by Treyarch.

http://wiki.treyarch.com/wiki/Scripting_..._Is_GSC.3F

Some people may think, why do I have to put sometimes a "wait" of 0.05 ??
This is the answer.

"GSC runs once every server frame, and there are 20 server frames per second. Script can not run indefinitely each server frame and still maintain a solid 60FPS, so the wait command is offered to force execution of a given thread to cease for 1 or more frames. The wait command takes a float value as a parameter representing the number of seconds to wait:

PHP Code:

wait 0.05; // waits 1/20th of a second, or 1 server frame
wait 0.5;  // waits half a second, or 10 server frames
wait 1;    // waits 1 second, or 20 server frames 


Of special note is the script error "script runtime warning: potential infinite loop in script", which occurs when the game determines that a thread has run for too long during a single thread. This occurs either when script tries to do too many operations all at once, which can be fixed by inserting wait statements to break up the tasks across multiple frames, or when an infinite for or while loop (discussed later) run without hitting a wait statement, and again the solution is to add a wait statement."

That's their problem with their 20 Server FPS... A normal Source-Engine Server (also based on Quake, just like CoD) used to run on 100, nowadays it's 66 I think, still more than those lousy 20, also explains you the retarded hit-recognition.

And most competition servers in CS:S run on 1000 server FPS.
W00t.

I can see it from monitor weapon

[skyfire]

none of that keybinding stuff work for the pc.. the only thing i've been able to get working were the OnWhateverButtonPressed() functions
