Yeah it's a bit of a problem that. The old stop scripts from AO don't seem to work in TSW.

Has anyone found a way to stop them looping? (other than renaming the file while the script is running I guess)

I simply move ... they stop. Or activate the closet and frig with clothing.

This is likely going to make me sound sillybut....

following what vallikat was saying for setting up the dance script , found its not working for me so been wondering if Im doing things right ?

its been a long while since played ao so very rusty in the were you put the script folder etc... I just put it right into the secret world files made copyed and paisted shigs script into a text document useing word pad and called that file dance . but once in game hit /dance got told it didnt exsist so not sure if I have missed something or that , any help would be muchly loved guys ^^

if you write in notepad, it automatically adds a file extension to it, so it's probably called dance.txt
If you try typing /dance.txt ingame it should work
If you type /da then hit tab you'll get alist of all th ecommands (including custom scripts) that start with da and you should see your dance there.

You can delete the .txt from the file to make it work as /dance

Oh also make sure your script is in the scripts folder of game install

What Dasch said

We were talking about dance scripts the other day during Shigy's (first!) TSW show so I thought I'd share what I use. The one I usually use is the one in the first post minus the headstand
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/jazzhands
/delay 3000
/covereyes
/delay 5000
/digmusic
/delay 60000

And since tapdance doesn't loop I also have
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000
/tapdance
/delay 35000

And lastly my new one. It has a bit of a nod to my AO dance script in it. It is a bit different than the one Shigy came up with but it still has a lot of digmusic.
/rockonheels
/delay 3500
/graffiti

/funkychicken

/dance_sprinkler
/delay 9000
/funkychicken

/tapdance
/delay 9000
/digmusic

I still havn't been able to come up with a good metal dance though. Lastly, while not a dance, some may have seen me throw glitter around. Here is the script for that.

/v <font color="#009500">!!! </font><font color="#0080FF">Take</font> <font color="#FF8000">this</font> <font color="#69E61E">glitter</font> <font color="#DB96E0">to</font> <font color="#FF0000">the</font> <font color="#FF00C8">face</font><font color="#DB96E0"> %t </font><font color="#0080FF">!!!</font>

Thanks for sharing

I haven't had time to put together more but I want to at some stage.

Dancing on TSW still takes talent .. yes if you move or do 100 over things .. start over ... what is cool tho .. is you can dance and drink beer and smoke at the same time.. just don't move too much +sighs+





yaya

Tried to come up with a more metal one for Ashval...failed miserably. Doesn't help that half of them spit something into chat which you don't want on a looping script.

/digmusic
/delay 6500
/crossedarms
/delay 3000
/rubface
/delay 4500
/scaredlook
/delay 3800
/slouch
/delay 2000
/metal

And a silly one. Because I'm silly.

I might have the solution on how to stop dancing.

In AO, any other script would stop loops, thats why a single /text [message] could stop it.

I dunno if it works, but if you add a second loop you might remove the first one.
Try something like:

(have a script named stop, and another one named stop2)

Type this in stop:
/text Attempting to stop dancing..
/delay 20
/stop2

And this in stop2:
/text Success!


Would be cool if it works ;o
I should really go try out tsw, and make a level 1 there aswell xD

The standard AO stop scripts don't work in TSW. There are ways to get it to stop though.

I saw that the normal stop script didnt work, thats why i just made those new codes :3

I could be wrong about this, but I think in TSW you don't need a stop script at all. You just need to do anything else and it breaks your script. I know the /dance_ emotes all run continuously until other action is performed. I would guess that even a continuous looping script would do the same. Not sure. There seems to be conflicting info on that in this thread. I will have to try later.

not completely true...
The custom dance scripts i have made, which loop, do not stop when you move.. they eventually start again. I actually had to log out of the game so i would stop doing the Shiggy one night.

Doing another emote or moving will stop the current emote, but it does not break the loop in TSW. A looping script continues to run in the background and if the character is idle for a moment it will continue the script again. I dont know how to make it stop, so I just dont use looping scripts.

Then try out the script I posted above, and let me know if it works

Pepper,

if i actually make it to Trevelins show tonight i will do that.

i don't know why i said if i make it Trev's show... i am a sucker for liveness.. and the stop script didn't work. sadly.
