Hey, i have a very basic understanding of RF. the game came with a helmet in the demo, and i was just wondering if it were possible to make an image appear on the HUD only when he wears the helmet. I looked through the forums already and could not find the answer i was looking for, if any one could help me, it would be very much appreciated....

The helmet in the RF demo level is a Pawn entity controlled by the accessory.s script.
You may add a command to activate a HUD element in this script (e.g. at the beginning of the Attach method).
Prior to this, you have to add a HUD picture definition in the HUD.ini file (as described in the HUDInfoFile section of the manual; set the active option of the HUD element to false).
The script method to activate a HUD picture element is:

Code: Select all

ShowHudPicture(int  pictureID, bool show)
