SCM to SCR Phrasebook

Since SCR is around the corner, I thought I'd post a topic which highlights the changes of names you may have gotten used to. In most cases, the name for something in SCR is the same as the known native name. If the native name isn't known, it's based purely on Rockstar's usual naming conventions.

I consider 'SCM' as a language to be Spanglish, wheras SCR is closer to an actual, real language SCM had no real naming convention, so many things named differently in SCM are actually one thing in SCR and vice-versa.

SCM	SCR	Desc.
actor	char(acter)	Object handle
ped	char/ped	Object handle
marker	blip	Object handle
controller	pad
ped acquaintance	relationship
AS Pack	task sequence	Scripted task sequence
animation	anim
gxt	text label	Localisation 'GXT' label
text	print	Subtitle text printing
text styled	print big	Big text printing
text box	help message	Help text printing
text draw	text	Customisable printed text
texture	sprite	Drawable texture
txd	texture dictionary
walk style	anim group
path coord	node	A path node
thread	script/label	Script
wasted busted check	deatharrest	Process that runs on death & arrest
status text	counter	Mission score display
mission cleanup list	mission deletion list	Deletes mission stuff
opcode	command	Script function

wav	mission audio	Audio used during missions

More whenever I can be bothered

Maybe better in a table, I was lost in the topic

Bah.. it WAS in a table. But I guess when you enable a hidden RTE table editor deep in IPB's code, there's no guarantee it'll work
