Passing data from qc vm to engine

[h4des]

Hi, im using Darkplaces and I want to pass some variables (floats) from the quake c vm to the engine code.

I have a "music player" implemented under the quake c code and I want to display the name of song that is being played on the hud but the only way to draw images on the hud is by using the engine code.

So, Im wondering how can I pass the infos I need so the engine knows which song is being played.

thanks

Stick it in a cvar. There are 4 provided in Quake for just this kind of purpose: scratch1, scratch2, scratch3 and scratch4. You might need to extern them so that the hud code knows about them.
