AIMackey, would you mind copying and pasting just the changed bit of code?
[BTS] MarnzMod
- Thread starter bmarnz
- Start date
Hey everyone I just got BTS and thought I would try a decent MOD and this one looked to be quite good. However when I play the MOD it always crashes to desktop after about an hour and then if I try to load a save from before the game crashed it crashes again. I don't get any error message apart from the windows one asking me if I would like to file an error report.
I have 1GB of RAM and about 2-3GB of HDD space. I also installed mod 1.8c then patch 1.8f.
Any ideas on what could be wrong?

Really not enough info to be certain, but with only 2-3gigs left on your HDD it could be a virtual memory issue.

Sure... This is from near the end of the file, inside many nested loops and conditionals (which is why it's indented so far).
These are the lines that were breaking the scoreboard, which can be commented out (like I've done here) or deleted:
Code:
# if (gc.getGame().isGameMultiPlayer()):
# if (not (gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).isTurnActive())):
# szBuffer = szBuffer + "*"
# if (bAlignIcons):
# scores.setActive()Just below this, there's the bit of code that figures out the player name:
Code:
# BUG - Dead Civs - start
if (BugScore.isShowBothNames()):
szPlayerName = gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).getName() + "/" + gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).getCivilizationShortDescription(0)
elif (BugScore.isShowLeaderName()):
szPlayerName = gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).getName()
else:
szPlayerName = gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).getCivilizationShortDescription(0)Immediately after the lines above, I inserted these lines to add the star to the player name:
Code:
# Al's Alternate Turn Over Star
if (gc.getGame().isGameMultiPlayer()):
if (not (gc.getPlayer(ePlayer).isTurnActive())):
szPlayerName = "*"+szPlayerName
# End Turn Over StarThis probably isn't the most elegant solution. I don't really know Python, but I know enough of other programming languages to mess around a bit.

No, very nice. Simple, but that's the best fixes.
I'll test it out, and update the SVN for BUG with it. I can't do anything with Marnz Mod though. Thanks!
BTW - If you want to do some other tweaks with BUG, let me know... we are looking for another Coder.

Question... I haven't tested this yet, but does it still align the icons properly?

It's mostly still aligned. Since the turn-over star is part of the player names now, the names shift slightly when the players' turns end in a multiplayer game. Operation in single player mode is completely unchanged.
As I said, I don't really know python yet. I'm just starting to get into Civ modding. If I learned the language more, I'd find a way to give the stars their own column and align them properly.

Hi...
I need some help ! I can't open the civilopedia and the Options when I'am running Marnzmod ... and I miss all the Icons during the game. I'am using Windowas Vista ! is that the problem ?
thank you for the help

If Bmarz doesn't return this great mod is dead....
Bmarnz used a lot (and added even more!) from my Warlords modpack so, if he doesn't come back I can certainly see what could be absorbed into Amra v3 for BtS that I am currently working on. It's still a while yet before I am to that point as I am currently finishing up some LH's for the new civs to be included.If Bmarz doesn't return this great mod is dead....
Hopefully, Bmarnz will return (I know how necessary it is to get away sometimes) and do more with this for everybody.

it would be great if you could merge Revolution and Dales Combat mods . . . your mod is my favourite but they are cool as well

shame, this was such a good mod, so much potential

Well good news is Amra is going to be making a very similiar mod, with much the same stuff in it. Plus alot of stuff not in it, sort of like this mod only better. So while we mourn the loss of Bmarnz, all is not lost.

I too am curious on what Amra is planning. I know he checked out this mod for ideas for his own, since this mod includes Chiyu's extra(older version) and Wolfanshe's boats(some of them), I think Amra's mod will be the one to beat.

I agree with Geddon . . . Arma seems to have a nack for "getting it right". I often wonder what he does in "real life". He must be a bookie to call some many game play aspect correct !!!
