Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

[purseon]

These errors are because of the perks modifications. it's possible the perk is not avaible so then it can't find the value. If you use the getattribute it will make sure not errors are generated. Also make sure you use "defence" instead of "defense". Just check the names with the perks_init.c file
same goes for this error
The first time it doesn't recognise the value so use getattribute to get it. But for now it's (PChar.TrainingFight.count) also not set anywhere as far as I can see. so I think you forgot that.
These errors I'm not sure why they are generated, this could be storyline specific. Could someone try it in another storyline to check? And what stroyline where you playing davyjack?

​

***
TrainingFight.count is an artifact from MAXIMUS' original code that I forgot to fully remove in one place...I don't use it anymore but there is a conditional statement that calls it. I will remove and do some more testing and resubmit the change. Also, I didn't realize there were logs that track errors...boy,that is going to make troubleshooting a lot easier from now on.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Yup, check the .log files generated in your main game folder. Especially error.log .

 

[Levis]

you can also use Logit(string + string etc) to send things to the screen or Trace() to send things to compile.log

Made a few changes to the training code to fix the errors previously seen plus added some dialog to better indicate if you won or lost the sparring match. I made these on top of Pieter's version of my files. See attached zip. Thanks for the troubleshooting snippets Levis ...very helpful.

[Levis]

that error is unrelated to this mod I believe.
So good Job on that on Fixing the Errors!

Indeed!

I'm beginning to enjoy the forum more, as there are more good news thus far than bad news. Hehehe.

 

[Levis]

I just could say not to this so sorry guys.
I implemented a system which calculates how the moon is. It's included in the worldmap mod cause its used there.
For modders I implemented some features you can use if you want so read the post.

I have replaced the Beta 3 installer now with a Beta 3.2 WIP version here:
[See below for corrected file and details]

 

[Grey Roger]

I've grabbed a copy. I don't know when I'll be able to test it in detail though, not least because it won't recognise any of my saved games so I'd need to start over. So it will be quite some time before I have powerful enough character and ship to check many of the events listed...

 

[Pieter Boelen]

I took down the link again; apparently that particular installer was not very well-done.
Currently compiling a fixed one.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Let's try that again, shall we?

New game required?

Pistols during boarding fixed

I didn't enforce a new game, no. There aren't all that many changes anyway, so I'm hoping Beta 3.1 savegames will work normally.

Pistols during boarding fixed

Only the Musket/Musketoon that had been acting up for the player character.
The problem you reported is a different one. I don't think anyone else has even able to replicate that problem.

 

[Jason]

Thanks.

Guys, I will test the new patch and give a detailed feedback on each coresponding change that has been made. So in other worlds, let's test-sail this bad boy out!

 

[purseon]

For those of you that like to sail at sea at night, I just uploaded a simple mod to visibly show the moon phases, leveraging Levis' latest worldmap enhancements. Read more and see it here: Worldmap Encounter Enhancement (V 1.31) Now with Lunar Cycle

[Jack Rackham]

I have tried twice but can't get it to work.
I've checked the weather file but can't see what's wrong with it.
