ACS files control events in games. ACS stands for Action Code Script. Hexen first used ACS files. ACS files make events happen automatically during gameplay. ACS files contain code in the Action Code Script language. An ACS file has code compiled by the ACC compiler. Some ACS files are video editing projects. These files don’t have video clips. The acs extension relates to the Action Code Script language. Game file types also use acs. The acs extension is for the Hexen game. Hexen is a fantasy first person shooter game. The acs file stores Hexen scripts. ACS creates interactive game environments. ACS can change sector heights, textures, and objects. ACS can add, remove or change actors.
Action Code Script controls games like Hexen. The code comes in “scripts” with numbers. Later ACS added named scripts and functions. ACS compiles with ACC like C uses gcc. Scripts attach to actors or triggers. Scripts also call other scripts and functions.
An ASC file has commands or instructions. The Action Script application creates ASC files. ASC files work with Flash Media Server. Flash Media Interactive Server handles multiple streams. Adobe Systems created ASC files, also ASCII files. Text editors open ASC files. Script engines execute them. VB scripts show in HTML. Internet Explorer accesses VB.
Vox Proxy makes 3D animated characters. Vox Proxy is a script program for PowerPoint. It has a mime-type and magic bytes. Other files also use .acs. If you know more about .acs, tell us. Could .acs be misspelled? We found the similar .axs extension.
ACS compiles to pcode for execution. Compiled code was too slow. Interpreted code was too slow. So pseudo-code pcode runs via an interpreter. For example, Visual Basic uses pcode. The Deepsea compiler makes .o files from ACS. These are the HEXEN behaviors.
ASC files also work in the Atari Jaguar console. They store sound patches as ASCII. The MADMAC source code includes them to build patches.
ZDooM uses ACS for effects. Read about behaviors and cutscenes to use them. Plan events, place triggers, program behaviors, play game.
