Its kinda hard to just magically convert scripts, how do you know people have even converted them (successfully) to mp?

I converted one or two, but not fully.Annynduir said:
EG: The sprint script, before I quit Warband coding (for the most part anyhow) I had ported enough code for sprinting over to be able to hit a button and enable, then disable upon same button press. Of course there was no timer, as I never got that far in, so you could sprint indefinitely. The trouble is that most of this would take hours upon hours to port, as they are not designed in the slightest for multiplayer.
Examples: Horse whistle, Warcry, & Battlecry are completely useless in MP.
Warcry, as you can't use scrips to override the various player controls to make them flee (and even if you could/did, nobody would play that mod...)
Horse whistle may be possible, but you would need to store each player's horse so that the whistle only works on their horse.
Battlecry would most likely be a fiasco to script, but may be possible.
Taunt is easy, as you can simply make a client-server script to handle the sound being played, then just set a mission timer as when it can be reused.
First aid would be somewhat similar, but you would need to use a different client-server script to handle it. I did make a system like that at one point (not a port though), which I would give out if I hadn't lost my MS in a crash.
Rage and focus may be completely impossible, as you have to increase skills per troop, but, unlike singleplayer, each troop type is used 5-10 times in battle. You could set the data up in a way that it might work, but it is highly unlikely.
Sprint however was quite simple to get the basics done. This is what I did:
First I made a client-server event to handle the button press. Then I caused the button press to make the server unequip a heavy pair of gloves and equip a light pair of gloves, which increased speed by about 70%.
The trouble is that there was no timer to limit the sprinting, and I couldn't figure out for the life of me how to make a decent timer that would work in MP.

Sorry for the long reply, but I honestly don't see how you have a reason to say that everyone is being unfair because they don't share their codes. If I had them, you could see them, but theoretically, I just shared how I did what I did for my mod.
If I can remake or find backups of the code, I'll gladly post it on here for every experienced modder to pick apart, because I plainly don't have time to work on it anymore.

To be honest I was referring more to the guy who said he'd managed it and then subsequently not shared it.
That's like me going to Africa and saying I've solved world hunger and then disappearing without saying how.
The kit itself is awesome, I in no way was having a go at you specialist! What you do and share is great. It's just annoying when you frequently go around these boards, see people asking questions, they work out how to answer it themselves because nobody can/will help and then don't bother sharing how they've done it. Its not like there is any monetary gain associated with any of the modding and so many helpful people do bother to write tutorials etc. for the benefit of all. The least they could do is give something back.
Thanks for the reply specialist.

That's not what I was saying, it just seemed that your post was harsh in general.Annynduir said:
You're welcome, though I apologize for not being able to really help though. I'll try to dig a few of those codes up soon...

I know that the last post was over half a year ago so I wont be suprised if noone replies but does this all work for multiplayer aswell

ok thanks for replying anywayKazzan said:
Don't even bother. This is way too heavy and clunky, in my (not so) humble opinion. You can use it for inspiration, but writing your own would be a better choice.Dion/Folcwar said:
