Drayer's LCD Frame Loop [TV]

Description
Meant to loop multiple Monospace images/text to a single monitor.
(DISCLAIMER- This is my first script built with VSB, It runs fine on a server with 98 mods and 10 players on avg.)

Set-up 4 parts

1.Timer [Runs PB and itself every second, or however long you would like in between frames]

2.Programmable Block(PB) [Load this script into, SET CUSTOM DATA TO "1" No quotes]

3.As many LCDs as frames [Each one will have to be numbered after the name starting at 1, so-Clip1,Clip2,Clip3
Where as clip is the variable LCDNameSender, explained further below.]

4.LCDs for receiving [Simply whatever screens you want the frames on]

NOTE: For ALL LCDs using this system, their properties such as font and font size are not carried over, they will have to be set prior, this also means you cannot display text and images on the same system, it's one or the other.

The script - Explained

Within the script are 3 variables left to be changed they are as folllows-


1. string LCDNameSender = "Clip";
The name of the LCD holding that frame,minus the frame number. So your first lcd name would be- Clip1 in this case

2. string LCDNameRcv = "TV";
The name of any LCDs receiving the frames. ie. TV1, TVdray, etc..

3. string ComputerName = "Caster";
The name of the PB.
