GPC2 language reference

[pablosscripts]

Hi guys I'm trying to work on upgrading my GPC1 scripts to GPC2 and I'm looking for some sort of language reference. Has one been published yet?

J2Kbr hasn't made one yet.

There is some things to get an idea if you download what is in library.

oh of course, not thinking:) Alright I'll study those and I'll go from there. Thanks!

looks like if you want to use button references like PS4_SQUARE you have to include this in your script first:

Code: Select all

#include <ps4.gph>

I glanced at it but not diving in deep til it gets here to really get down and dirty. lol!

Yeah I think I'm done for now. When I first compiled it, there were about 300 errors.

I got it all the way down to 7 errors, and it's now getting super ambiguous, showing only messages like "Illegal operation"!

Tools down for now. Break time. I think I've had enough for today.

In the same boat as you. Managed to convert a script but couldn't find any info on a rumble function, ended up just commenting out my old rumble code, going to wait till documentation is released for now.

Hell yes!

I've made some progress.

This very simple comparison kept throwing an error:

Code: Select all

if(get_val(MOV_Y_AXIS) <= -97)

I noticed it worked fine when I removed the comparison:

Code: Select all

if(get_val(MOV_Y_AXIS))

It then dawned on me that it was because it wasn't comparing two int values, so I converted the button press value to an int:

Code: Select all

if((int) get_val(MOV_Y_AXIS) <= -97)

And it worked! I wish J2Kbr was here to say whether I'm on the right track or not, it feels like I'm hacking my script into oblivion here lol

[bonefisher]

I still didn't look at it no no no not me lol! Might be best if you take baby steps by writing small code first then progress into the full script. I'm waiting so I can see results working with short scripts and trying all the new goodies it can do.
