Need Help Tool Q's
-
The thing i’m not understanding is WHY are the Id Name and the Id Info number (458753)
the Same every thing i have seen or observed tells me that they can not be the same
and the infocard importer/exporter agrees with me.They indeed can be the same, and many folks mod this way. I have seen problems crop up twice by doing this though, so I NEVER use the same number.
The reason they can both exist is that one is a name resource and one is pure xml.
Here are pics from Reshack:

How do i get FL Infocard IE

WARNING: >’ not found at the end of ids 458753…fixing
WARNING: >’ not found at the end of ids 458753…not fixed 458753
info card start here
WARNING:duplicate ids 458753
WARNING:oldtype name=NAME
WARNING:old text=start here
WARNING:new type =start here
laoded 18444 infocardsi get this at the end of info card Import/Export
i have no idea what i’m doing.
i hope it did not seem like i was saying i didfrustration is winning the race.
I need a better understanding of this tool and its counter part’s.
also do i write over start here or does it need to be there
and what of the ships that apear to be in the dll it apears to know there there and they have ids do i start below them with the NEW
-
i guess i was trying to use the HTML and modify them from the empty dll
im not sure if i have a way to create xml i’m sure that i am missing somthing big i just don’t know what -
k ill try it thanks

ok i seriously don’t want to mess up and have to replace with backups because im not entirely sure what’s going to change when i push the button.
i got the anubis by get ids name and info on the left side
on the right the info card dll is showing by default and on the bottom right i set to the new empty dll
don’t know what convert would do and the bottom ids name and info i do what with
if i push save ids name and info for left side and confirm save it’s gonna do WHAT
i geuss i’m hoping it saves it into the empty dll where where i can create a new id for it
but i dont dare do any thing untile thats confirmed right or wrong. -
Ok I found a tutorial
thanks for all your help.

A link in case someone else could use it.
made by Chips.
Thanks Chips i was going a little nuts not bieng able to figure it out.

Well from my own work on DLLs, the reason the two can be the same is the DLL can store a string and a HTML (XML in FL’s case) string at the same number. DLLs can store more than just those 2 types though including executable code.

Thanks for the info LancerSolurus

sumanuti gave me some helpful information on CreatID through a link
unfortunatly for me i don’t apear to have a RUN function does anybody Know where it would Be on a W-7 64 or how i would work around the lack of the function.@ khayman - For hash thing, adoxa’s tools is all what u need.
1. Get the CreateID and Flunhash and place them in your user profile foolder: C:\Users\user\ or C:\Document and Settings\user
2. Start-run-cmd
3. Type createid -sh to create hash database hashes.dat
4. Drag and drop fl-server-errors.log on flunhash.exe file and u get fl-server-errors.txt with nickname related hashes. -

Simply open a notepad file (or w-7’s equiv), type in your code, and save as a filename.bat (Where file name is your choice, ie CreatID.bat) Put this file in the folder where your CreatID app is located. Then simply dbl click the .bat file, and viola! it’s done it’s thing.
Example .bat file text (I use it to convert ms3d to Descent 3 .orf files)
ORFTOOL -SM:BENCH.ms3d -DO:BENCH.orf pauseEdit: For my example I had to make sure that the ms3d file was in the folder that the ORFTOOL and my .bat file were.

on a little different Note
I seem to be unable to take a Sreenshot of my ship
in Ms3d any thought’s as to why -
[RIP]Fusion
you guys are my teachers i’m unfamiliar with the code thingcan you give me a breakdown of what the terms are and do so i can apply it to my need. i don’t want the answer given to me so much as a brief explanation so i can learn from it
but if the solution is easier for you ill take what i can get.
Code:
ORFTOOL -SM:BENCH.ms3d -DO:BENCH.orf

To quote someone, hit the quote box that’s next to reply at the bottom of each post. Then edit for the part you wish to quote. Make sure you don’t delete the [/qoute] or it won’t work.
