Bug Thread for Fallout LS Mod

[graywarden]

yeah, this is my experience too. I am really not sure what about it that is causing the CTD, it just seems really strange, normally when an artfile is wrong it goes properly wrong in game, this is an entirely new kind of problem that I have never experienced before, at some point I will try removing the button and going back to the old archer, but I can't really see why the button art would break it, I have looked at the art file and I can't work out why this one would cause issues over any other, I am just at a complete loss to explain it. I have posted a thread to see if anyone is willing to help me try to debug it I will just have to wait and see. I have looked at the art file but can't see anything that would be an issue....there are a few small things I can try but I am not holding my breasth that they will have an effect...

It would be my guess that its not the art file, if it was a broken link it would simply show a red blob, my guess is there is something looking for something and when it finds it , it produces the crash, but i have no idea what it would be. double check the unit classes with the schema file, thats probably where the problem is now that i think about it. if there is not a correct entry in the schema, then that will cause a crash.

Ok take a look at this. there is a "copy" of the CivCoreGame.dll Folder in the dropbox and consequently in my game build. I assume this should not be the case - correct? perhaps this is contributing to the ctd???

 

[Lib.Spi't]

No that is fine, I shouldn't really be putting either of the DLL folders in the dropbox, but it is too much of a faff to move them, but basically the game does not read either DLL folder, it only reads the compiled DLL file at the bottom. the reason for the copied DLL folder is that if I break the DLL adding in a new component, I have a backup that I can revert to that will compile. But the game doesn't actually use these.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

No I am 99% certain I have reslved the crossbow issue, see the explantion on the previous page for details. Now I am just waiting to see what will blow up next, I have not tested this new version any more, other than to see if I can click the Xbow button, which i can

 

[Lib.Spi't]

It would be my guess that its not the art file, if it was a broken link it would simply show a red blob

This was my thinking too, which was causing me to be thoroughly confused, it was an atlas reference issue I think.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

oh also, I think the current version of the dll is a debug version, if you get messages in a grey box, just click ignore always, or make a note of it in your test log, before ignoring always, a lot of the recurring ones I know about, at least till the point of the Xbow crash. I just don't know if or how to fix them yet. But they may just be for debugging, as a lot of them seem to refer to Kmods AI I think. So it may just be there to tell K when something is or is not happening so he can track his AI changes.

CTD when clicking to build Barricade in the build screen (popup)

 

[Lib.Spi't]

Ok cool, some of those are ones I have seen some are not, I am going to take a look at the barricade code, that is one of the newest things, with any luck it is the same issue as the Xbow.

Ok Job done, Just replace your artdefinesbuilding file with the one in the dropbox. Or if you fancy doing a spot of coding just delete the ',' at the beginning of the button reference

Still need to learn what these debug errors are about and if/how they need fixing, the iroute one sounds like it might be jroute code, which (if it is working) allows me to define whether or not something can use a specific bit of road. I don't know how to use that code yet though.

Ok I have added some more additions to the dropbox version. Just trying to decide the next step to take...maybe terrain...maybe resources..ugh dunno... too tired to think

yeah I have seen a lot of these myself, not sure what is wrong with them at the moment, but the good news is the game doesn't explode from them as far as I can tell!

New resource edition uploading to the dropbox

 

[Lib.Spi't]

hmmm. I got a CTD on my latest game, but I wasn't running debug so i don't know what caused it, but I fear it was not the old button CTD, which means there may be a new one..damn...

[Lib.Spi't]

wow you hold the new record, did you manage to research all 6 tiers of the current research tree?

Also I found one CTD and fixed it, there was a left over kfm in the stone resorce reference.

New version uploaded!

 

[deadomancer]

wow you hold the new record, did you manage to research all 6 tiers of the current research tree?

I only made it to Building Tech, I am playing on marathon.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

ah ok

what faction were you?

 

[deadomancer]

I created a report in the drop box folder as well as the first and last autosaves (following Graywarden's Structure). Are you able to see these files or is there something I need to do to make them visible?

 

[deadomancer]

ah ok

what faction were you?

Started the first test as the NCR

 

[Lib.Spi't]

wow you got all the way to the AD and only researched to building....we may have to look into that.

Yeah that is all fine in the dropbox, I can't always use the auto saves as i am always adding new bits to my version, but if you note anything particular about the timing of your crash that is always good too like for instance if you were pushing a button or you just discovered a tech, anything that you can think of is good
