I'd rather see it as debugging of my stupidness in overwriting important savegames...

Coding / Edit Saved Game parts, like position of an aircraft?
« on: November 20, 2009, 09:41:35 pm »
I know it's old topic, but better here than a new one
I'm wondering about all that savegame stuff: Lot of people seem to intend changing the team stats.
As far as I understood, u've to cvar save_compressed 0 and than change the .ufo- and .pk-file, right?
Not the slotxx.lint and slotxx.xml -files, right?
How bout changing things like position and armory of an aircraft.
F.e I had a team out, on way back home, but the vehicle is shot down by another Ufo right after leaving crashbattlescene with no chance of beeing rescued.
Unfortunately I overwrote older savegames, where the ship wasn't started yet.
So I wonder if I can change the positon f.e.
As far as I recognize, the .lint-Files actually seem to include position, armory and so on, as <>-Values.
But changing them changes nothing.
Wrong file?
Thanks.

Bugs prior to release 2.3 / Savegames + Log as Zip
« on: November 19, 2009, 12:29:25 pm »
Oops...
Sorry.
Should be different ufo-logs. Just have the last, though.
Slot6 is the one, where I use to win and than the game crashes. It's the one the consolelog is related to.
Slot7 is the one, where the battleloadscreencrash happened, with the last lines in the log mentioned in the post above
where indeed is an error....
Hope I added all?
EDIT: The battlescreenloading problem did not happen a 2. time. Can't reproduce that.
However both savegames seem to blank out when losing, now too...
Hm weird.

Bugs prior to release 2.3 / r26960.exe : Game Crashs after winning [+Farm] -> Ufosellmenu/Geoscape?
« on: November 19, 2009, 11:55:30 am »
BUG REPORT r26960.exe after Winning Farm Map
Different kind of bugs related to winning/losing/ending the [+farm]map:
After Battlestatistics game blanks out black and crashes.
Detailed Infos below:
* Downloaded: Win32 Development Binary Installer Links (http://www.destructavator.com/92dl/ufoai_2_3dev_r26960.exe)
System
* Windows 7 Professional, up to date.
* AMD 64 3000+ 1,80 (Socket 939_) GHz on MSI K8T NEO 2 FIR with [EDIT: Wrong card, now fixed] AGP ATI Radeon 9500 , 1 GB RAM, IDE Primary, SATA Secondary
* x86_32, VIA K8T800 Pro & VIA VT8237 Chipset
Situation:
- Terrorattack in [+farm]map, 4-Alien Ship
- external Ufo-Storage hall built up, ready for use
- landed Ufo: Engaging the Fight
Now 3 Possibilites how game ends:
1.
- Winining the Fight
- The Mission stats screen comes.
After Continueing The Global Screen-Music comes , Screen stays black.
Mouseclicks and Keyboard doesn't help.
Pressing Space causes the game to exit.
A small screen with a messages pops up and disappear before I have any chance to read.
Actually here the UFO-sell and -storage screen should appear, right??
IF it's a Vid Scene which should come here, I tried english and german version.
Nothing came. In 2.2.1 I had Xvid-text than, at least.
Console says no error, imho?
Shutdown server: Mission end
==== ShutdownGame ====
music change to (different kind of musics here)
No mention of crash or error or sort of...
2.
-killing all my soldiers by myself (tried to end it quick, for a test).
When the last one is death, game crashes directly to desktop
No info in the console either... same like above in possibility 1.
(3) Possibility:
- Engaging the battle, but disengage.
All 8 soldiers get killed, airspace goes back home,
game continues to run...
No error message in Console, same like above in possibility 1.
NEW different problem, probably caused to the savegame by the crashes, cause an older savegame before engaging works fine: (?)
After trying a few things with graphic modes and so on I know am not even able to acces the battlemode anymore:
Console says:
ERROR: Unknown model type in R_DrawEntities entity chain: 0
********************
Shutdown server: Server crashed.
==== ShutdownGame ====
music change to karlmacklin_geoscape (from PsymongR5)
