Help and Request

**@ OP - indeed, I do have ways of knocking out at least 2 of those programs, the rest I will have to see about

@ Jong - u will need to PM me with your MSN addy so we can chat in person, this is not for the public to see ;)**

@Grey:

Ya gotta love the four page “Contract” types.

Some of my favorite excerpts, ::)

“You must ask and receive permission before any PvP”

“On being killed, you must remain in dock for 10 minutes”

“No Character warping, you must wait five minutes between activation of each character”

I just have to say something here. “You must ask permission before any PvP”. Er, no. The npc’s don’t ask so why should i? “You must wait in dock for 10mins after being killed”. To quote John McEnroe, you cannot be serious. What the hell am i to do for 10mins? Pure lunacy. Apart from the basic no cheating, no racist remarks etc, that really should be it. I thought the idea of FL was to do what you want, not restrict the hell out of the player. I’m glad i don’t go that far (** checks own forum quickly **) 🙂

Sorry for missing out the names if i knew all them players\modders were there then definitely worth a look \ visit there.

Should of also said I looked at the original XML tool kit and the one I changed. Nothing was missing. (Line by line.)

That was it, FriendlyFire. I went over that for a half-hour and didn’t notice it until you pointed it out! Man, I’ve been doing Infocards for WAAAAYYY too long today.

Thank you again, Starport of Awesome.

Solved.

I went into CRCTool (thanks, PE!), and found it was trying to Get (the “ArchDB::Get(2983268608)”) a commodity that I had declared in the Goods.ini wasn’t in the select_equip.ini, so it freaked out and didn’t work.

That’s one bug fixed, let’s hope there isn’t any more. laughs

Yes it does.

With us it worked a bit faulty at some times, may be the earlier versions, so we had IFSO running parallel. Beside that it was a nice proggie and we ran it for a few months before we switched.

@Chips:

@FriendlyFire:

That’d also strip spaces between commas.

I also happen to love regular expressions: Search for “[ ]=[ ]” and replace with " = " (Without quotes, of course).

Just need to use a program with regexp support 😉 I heard a lot of good about Notepad++, but I use Dreamweaver myself.

It’s a replace double space with single - not remove spaces 😛

I’m not overly sure what the OP was actually after, at first I thought they wanted to remove all spaces between the equals sign and text either side of it. Then as we went on I thought it was make sure each one has a space either side, and then finally I thought it was remove double spaces…

Still not overly sure what they were actually after, meh 😛

Bleh. Blame it on 14 hours + without sleep and 7 hours of plane. I saw " " to “”. -,-

@cheese:

okay, hopefully someone else will see this and help as i have to go to that thing we call sleep. XD

nite. or should i say… see you in 5 hours as it is 4:53 am … -_- bloomin BLARG.

Whorrisit wiv you lot wot stays up to gawd knows wot hour pratting around in places like this one??!!

😄

@Strail:

Just to put your mind at rest, we were dropped by flstat last week, I think we’ll be back in there in a few days time.

Hope that for you.
Because i´m waiting now for 2 weeks 😞

Anyway, thanks for the help 😉

uhhh…what about the no story i used?

itll get replaced 😞

uhhh i hate BUMPING ;D

The original works in-game but gives red FLserver errors.

The base_appr removes the errors but doesn’t give the talking head in game 🙂

Adding a head in bodyparts.ini gives multiple gender/ left right hand errors.

So, I presume removing the red FLserver errors from the game are the most crucial thing for stability?

Thank you very much.

I also get that when I stopped using CRC Beta1 and uploaded the Beta 2 from the downloads section 😄

If I’m not mistaken thats from my old very basic OpenSP, the problem with using that for OSP is that you can’t easilly have various options, as you would need to delete the mods restart.fl every time you changed something, as FL uses that file to initialise the client, only if it can’t find it will it read the newplayer.fl and make a new restart.fl.

As I’ve said I point it at the M13.ini to allow for options, in the one I posted above it’s as basic as you can get, but I have an OSP that I worked on a while ago that allows you to select any faction (except nomads & GC (I’m not giving Trent a sex change)), you then start on one of that factions bases, your dressed as one of them, have a ship that they fly, and have a rep to match (their enemies are you enemies etc). The only alteration I did to the newplayer.fl for that was the [StoryInfo] section.
@DwnUndr:

I simply use this one line:

base = OR01

It places me inside my start planet nicely.

If you check that OpenSP you will find that I did that with it, select “new game” and you start on the Manhatten landing pad, I don’t use it any more and again it’s down to options, I’d rather not see the inside of a base for a second before I’m transfered to another one.

The newplayer.fl is client only (SP & OSP), for MP you need to alter the newcharacter.ini on the server, I have very little interest in MP you see so I forgot to post that bit.

@Bejaymac:

;D Most of the errors in the logs are non crashers by themselves, however a lot of them at once can overload the CPU and cause random CTD’s (a bitch to understand let alone sort).

sshhhh :), just spent all weekend tracking down two lines of code. They work perfectly everywhere except 1 system = server crash.

@Chips:

hehe, yup - okay, exams done - just having to finish off a piece of coursework to do with a game (it’s made in blender, part of the course - worst module in the universe, should have done data mining… stupid stupid error lured in by stupid idea that it may actually be useful or interesting. Most boring ill thought of module in the world. I’d rather do C++ programming and learn about how game engines work etc than do bloody Blender game ideas… ill conceived module of uselessness - will study data mining and all the associated math in my own time - oops, waffle :D)

i hate blender… i want to stab it in the eyes with a wooden spoon ;D
