here is from perks/_tripwire onPrecache() script:

onPrecache()
{
if( !isdefined( game["gamestarted"] ) )
{
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["pickupmessage"] );
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["placemessage"] );

if( game["tripwire"]["picktimesameteam"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimeotherteam"] )
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["pickingUpmessage"] );

if( game["tripwire"]["planttime"] )
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["placingmessage"] );

switch( game["allies"] )
{
case "american":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@us_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_us_grenade_defuse" );
break;

case "british":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@british_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_british_grenade_defuse" );
break;

case "russian":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@russian_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_russian_grenade_defuse" );
break;
}
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@steilhandgrenate_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_german_grenade_defuse" );

if( game["tripwire"]["planttime"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimesameteam"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimeotherteam"] )
precacheShader( "white" );
}
}

so what is wrong? pls help me killtube

game["allies"] is undefined.
Maybe you deleted the lines where game["allies"] is defined (game["allies"] = "american") and/or you call the script too early.




(thats why do not modify others' scripts without any knowledge)

Sounds like it is being threaded too soon, and the team assets haven't been defined. Try this:


onPrecache()
{
if( !isdefined( game["gamestarted"] ) )
{
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["pickupmessage"] );
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["placemessage"] );

if( game["tripwire"]["picktimesameteam"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimeotherteam"] )
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["pickingUpmessage"] );

if( game["tripwire"]["planttime"] )
precacheString( game["tripwire"]["placingmessage"] );

if( !isDefined( game["allies"] ) )
game["allies"] = "american";


switch( game["allies"] )
{
case "american":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@us_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_us_grenade_defuse" );
break;

case "british":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@british_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_british_grenade_defuse" );
break;

case "russian":
precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@russian_grenade_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_russian_grenade_defuse" );
break;
}

precacheShader( "gfx/icons/hud@steilhandgrenate_C.tga" );
precacheShader( "hud_german_grenade_defuse" );

if( game["tripwire"]["planttime"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimesameteam"] || game["tripwire"]["picktimeotherteam"] )
precacheShader( "white" );
}
}

I would say that you call your precache too soon.
It gets defined in Callback_StartGameType() (all gametypes). This function gets called from _callbacksetup by CodeCallback_StartGameType().
You should call the precache after [[level.callbackStartGameType]]() or in the gametype.
