Is it possible to use say, a global event/createevent to send an animated text every 5 seconds if the player is wairing a full set of one type of gear?

I saw an example of giving full sets buffs, but thats not what I want; and I cant edit that script down to the basics and put it on an interval since its a create script..

http://otland.net/threads/set-system.102393/

Can anyone help me out here and possibly create a script for me based off the full system given; just slim it down and turn it into a global event to do on an interval to show an animated text; not give a full buff.

Thank you very much!

@Ninja - <3 would love you if you could help with this

Just replace doCreatureSay with doSendAnimatedText
Code: 
local t = {
    {"Lava Set", 7900, 7899, 7894, 7891},
    {"Ice Set", 7902, 7897, 7896, 7892},
    {"Energy Set", 7901, 7898, 7895, 7893},
    {"Tera Set", 7903, 7884, 7885, 7886}
}

function onThink(interval)
    for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
        for i = 1, #t do
            if getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[i][2] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_ARMOR).itemid == t[i][3] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_LEGS).itemid == t[i][4] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_FEET).itemid == t[i][5] then
                doCreatureSay(cid, t[i][1], TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
                doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)
            end
        end
    end
    return true
end

@Ninja,

Hey man I get this error,
Code: 
[Warning - Event::loadScript] Event onEquip not found (data/movements/scripts/wa

[Warning - Event::loadScript] Event onDeEquip not found (data/movements/scripts/

I think you forgot to add deequip and on equip functions or something?

Edit:
I added his deEquip and onEquip lines, but the script doesn't show the animation. (No Errors)

You have to put that script on globalevents, not on movements.

@Cthugha - Check the link posted, its a movements script. From Ninja did, it looks like he just edited the movements script. Why do you say it should be an a global event, you can make a movement event loop, interval to have the same effect as an interval based globalevent. Atleast I think you can.

The one from Ninja is obviously not a movement script, so how do you expect it to work with just changing onThink to onEquip/onDeEquip?
It is a globalevent as Cthugha stated, changing it into movements requires a lot more work (adding all itemids manually into movements.xml) and a lot more checks and scripting which is not neccessarily in this case, as the script he provided does the job more then enough.

Well @Evil Hero, I thought it was a globalevent - and tried that first; it doesn't work as a global event.. so I figured it needed to be a movements script seeing as it uses deEquip and onEquip. I'm a fricken noob okay, so don't get all offensive over me asking how I thought it would work. I don't know how it works, that's why I'm asking.

@Ninja, No error when using it as a global event, just doesn't work. Doesn't work as a Movement either!

Code: 
<globalevent name="setEffect" interval="2" script="war/seteffects.lua"/>

Code: 
local t = {
  {"Frozen", 7902, 7897, 7896, 8907},
  {"Golden", 2471, 2466, 7470, 2523}
}

function onThink(interval)
  for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
  for i = 1, #t do
  if getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[i][2] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_ARMOR).itemid == t[i][3] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_LEGS).itemid == t[i][4] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_FEET).itemid == t[i][5] then
  doCreatureSay(cid, t[i][1], TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
  doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)
  end
  end
  end
  return true
end

This is the script after I tried to edit it down to just be the 3 main armors of the set.
Code: 
local t = {
  {"Frozen", 7902, 7897, 7896},
  {"Golden", 2471, 2466, 7470}
}

function onThink(interval)
  for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
  for i = 1, #t do
  if getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[i][1] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_ARMOR).itemid == t[i][2] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_LEGS).itemid == t[i][3] then
  doCreatureSay(cid, t[i][1], TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
  doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)
  end
  end
  end
  return true
end

If it's 0.3.6 you're using now, then it's registered incorrectly in globalevents.xml
Code: 
<globalevent name="setEffect" interval="2" event="script" value="war/seteffects.lua"/>

I didn't mean to be offensive, but neither did you said that you tried it as globalevents either.
the way you declare it in your xml file is wrong.
Code: 
<globalevent name="setEffect" interval="5000" event="script" value="war/seteffects.lua"/>

Oh I just assumed since it didn't work as globalevent it was staying as move events, sorry for not being clear.

@Ninja, for some reason its still not working :(

Current Script:
Code: 
local t = {
  {"Frozen", 7902, 7897, 7896},
  {"Golden", 2471, 2466, 7470}
}

function onThink(interval)
  for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
  for i = 1, #t do
  if getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[i][2] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_ARMOR).itemid == t[i][3] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_LEGS).itemid == t[i][4] then
  doCreatureSay(cid, t[i][1], TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
  doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)
  end
  end
  end
  return true
end

Code: 
<globalevent name="setEffect" interval="2" event="script" value="war/seteffects.lua"/>

(I have move events for the sets referred to in the script to set the deEquip and onEquip; would that interfere with this script. It shouldn't right? Since this just checks if the player has the item, and its a global event.. I assume it shouldn't matter)

I tried out Ninja's script and it works perfectly so I took liberty in adding slot's as in necklace and did my own little edit to it; that being said I was hoping to find out if there is a way I can add in shield slot and weapon slot? (either hand works)
If anyone has any idea's I'd be happy to hear them.
This is does not work.
Code: 
 and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_SHIELD).itemid == t[i][7]
Also if someone knows how to make each set get their own effect please share.
Code: 
                doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAP)
Thank you ahead of time!!

Alright it works perfectly thank you @Cthugha, I for some reason couldn't think of "RIGHT/LEFT" I was thinking "RIGHTHAND/LEFTHAND" lol been awhile for a while trying to get back into it; Thank You!
@Extrodus This is Ninja's (mine's a lot longer due to what I added)
globalevents.xml: (You Can name the lua whatever you please)
Code: 
    <globalevent name="setEffect" interval="8" script="setsystem.lua"/>

Inside globalevents/scripts/setsystem.lua: (You Can name the lua whatever you please)
Code: 
local t = {
    {"Fire", 7900, 7899, 7894, 7891},
    {"Ice", 7902, 7897, 7896, 7892}
}

function onThink(interval)
  for _, cid in ipairs(getPlayersOnline()) do
  for i = 1, #t do
  if getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[i][2] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_ARMOR).itemid == t[i][3] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_LEGS).itemid == t[i][4] and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_FEET).itemid == t[i][5] then
  doCreatureSay(cid, t[i][1], TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)
  doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)
  end
  end
  end
  return true
end
Now only thing to figure out is how to make each set have it's own effect
Code: 
  doSendMagicEffect(getCreaturePosition(cid), CONST_ME_GIFT_WRAPS)

@Ninja, thank you; I figured it out with your new update to give each set its own effect.

How do I change the text color; everytime I change it to say YELLOW or TEXTCOLOR_YELLOW it debugs the client.

Also I can't use symbols like † in the script to give cool symbols for each set, anyone know how to add this?

Out of curiosity @Ninja would you know how to make this script work only if they have a certain promotion? (Third Promotion)

if getPlayerPromotionLevel(cid) == 3 and getPlayerSlotItem(cid, CONST_SLOT_HEAD).itemid == t[3]
