// First see if there is a callback installed that doesn't have a type; // if so, that callback is always executed when a message arrives. for (%i = 0; (%func = $MSGCB["", %i]) !$= ""; %i++) { call(%func, %msgType, %msgString, %a1, %a2, %a3, %a4, %a5, %a6, %a7, %a8, %a9, %a10); } // Next look for a callback for this particular type of ServerMessage. if (%tag !$= "") { for (%i = 0; (%func = $MSGCB[%tag, %i]) !$= ""; %i++) { call(%func, %msgType, %msgString, %a1, %a2, %a3, %a4, %a5, %a6, %a7, %a8, %a9, %a10); } } } function AddMessageCallback(%msgType, %func) { for (%i = 0; (%afunc = $MSGCB[%msgType, %i]) !$= ""; %i++) { // If it already exists as a callback for this type, // nothing to do. if (%afunc $= %func) { return; } } // Set it up. $MSGCB[%msgType, %i] = %func; } function DefaultMessageCallback(%msgType, %msgString, %a1, %a2, %a3, %a4, %a5, %a6, %a7, %a8, %a9, %a10) { OnServerMessage(detag(%msgString)); } AddMessageCallback("", DefaultMessageCallback); The first function, ClientCmdChatMessage , is for chat messages only and is invoked on the client when the server uses the CommandToClient function with the message type ChatMessage . Refer back to the server-side message module if you need to. The first parameter ( %sender ) is the GameConnection object handle of the player that sent the chat message. The second parameter ( %voice ) is an Audio Voice identifier string. Parameter three ( %pitch ) will also be covered in the audio chapter later. Finally, the fourth parameter ( %msgString ) contains the Selected Common Code Client Modules 267 Team LRN Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. actual chat message in a tagged string. The rest of the parameters are not actually acted on so can be safely ignored for now. The parameters are passed on to the pseudo-handler OnChatMessage . It's called a pseudo-handler because the function that calls OnChatMessage is not really calling out from the engine. However, it is useful to treat this operation as if a callback message and handler were involved for conceptual reasons. The next function, ClientCmdServerMessage , is used to deal with game event descriptions, which may or may not include text messages. These can be sent using the message func- tions in the server-side Message module. Those functions use CommandToClient with the type ServerMessage , which invokes the function described next. For ServerMessage messages, the client can install callbacks that will be run according to the type of the message. Obviously, ClientCmdServerMessage is more involved. After it uses the GetWord function to extract the message type as the first text word from the string %msgType , it iterates through the message callback array ( $MSGCB ) looking for any untyped callback functions and exe- cutes them all. It then goes through the array again, looking for registered callback func- tions with the same message type as the incoming message, executing any that it finds. The next function, addMessageCallback , is used to register callback functions in the $MSGCB message callback array. This is not complex; addMessageCallback merely steps through the array looking for the function to be registered. If it isn't there, addMessageCallback stores a handle to the function in the next available slot. The last function, DefaultMessageCallback , is supplied in order to provide an untyped mes- sage to be registered. The registration takes place with the line after the function definition. A Final Word The common code base includes a ton of functions and methods. We have only touched on about half of them here. I aimed to show you the most important modules and their contents, and I think that's been accomplished nicely. For your browsing pleasure, Table 7.2 contains a reference to find all the functions in all common code modules.

One last thing to remember about the common code: As chock-full of useful and impor- tant functionality as it is, you don't need to use it to create a game with Torque. You'd be nuts to throw it away, in my humble opinion. Nonetheless, you could create your own script code base from the bottom up. One thing I hope this chapter has shown you is that a huge pile of work has already been done for you. You just need to build on it. Moving Right Along In this chapter, we took a look at the capabilities available in the common code base so that you will gain familiarity with how Torque scripts generally work. For the most part, it is probably best to leave the common code alone. There may be times, however, when you will want to tweak or adjust something in the common code, or add your own set of features, and that's certainly reasonable. You will find that the features you want to reuse are best added to the common code. As you saw, much of the critical server-side common code is related to issues that deal with loading mission files, datablocks, and other resources from the server to each client as it connects. In a complementary fashion, the client-side common code accepts the resources being sent by the server, and uses them to prepare to display the new game environment to the user. So, that's enough programming and code for a while. In the next few chapters, we get more artistic, dealing with visual things. In the next chapter, we will take a look at textures, how to make them and how to use them. We'll also learn a new tool we can use to create them.p Moving Right Along 273 Team LRN Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark.

In this chapter we begin to explore the cre- ative process behind the textures that give 3D objects their pizzazz. Using Textures Textures are probably the unsung heroes of 3D gaming. It is difficult to overstate the importance of textures. One of the most important uses of textures in a game is in creat- ing and sustaining the ambience, or the look and feel of a game. Textures also can be used to create apparent properties of objects, properties that the object shape doesn't have—it just looks like it does. For example, blocky shapes with jut- ting corners can appear to be smoothed by the careful application of an appropriate tex- ture using a process called texture mapping. Another way textures can be used is to create the illusion of substructure and detail. Figure 8.1 shows a castle with towers and walls that appear to be made of blocks of stone. The stone blocks are merely components of the textures applied to the tower and wall objects. There are no stone blocks actually modeled in that scene. The same goes for the appear- ance of the wooden boards in the steps and other structures. The texture gives not only the appearance of wood but the structure of individually nailed planks and boards. This is a powerful tool, using textures to define substructures and detail. This ability to create the illusion of structure can be refined and used in other ways. Figure 8.2 shows a mountainside scene with bare granite rock and icefalls. Again, textures were created and applied with this appearance in mind. This technique greatly reduces the need to create 3D models for the myriad of tiny objects, nooks, and crannies you're going to Team LRN Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. encounter on an isolated and barren mountain crag. Textures appear in many guises in a game. In Figure 8.3 two different tex- tures are used to define the water near the shoreline. A foamy texture is used for the areas that splash against rock and sand, and a more wavelike texture is used for the deep water. In this application the water block is a dynamic object that has moving waves. It ebbs and flows and splashes against the shore. The water textures are distorted and twisted in real time to match the motion of the waves. Another area in a game where textures are used to enhance the ambience of a game is when they are used to define the appearance of the sky. Figure 8.4 shows cloud textures being used in a skybox. The skybox is basically the inside of a big six-sided box that sur- rounds your scene. By applying spe- cially distorted and treated textures to the skybox, we can create the appear- ance of an all-enveloping 360-degree sky above the horizon. We can use textures to enhance the appearance of other objects in a scene. For example, in Figure 8.5 we see a number of coniferous trees on a hill- side. By designing the ground texture that occupies the terrain location of the trees appropriately, we can achieve the forest look we want without need- ing to completely cover every inch of ground with the tree objects. This is helpful because the fewer objects we need to use for such a purpose— Chapter 8 ■ Introduction to Textures276 Figure 8.1 Structure definition through using textures.
