I made a mod of the shipped Utapau (same Utapau map, etc, but with a few modifications ), and I tried to make my own version of Order 66, because the Utapau has it (thanks to the BF1 Conversion Pack v1.7.7 ). I made a new layer in ZE, put in new uncapturable CPs, etc. then I did the neccessary stuff to make the mode work, made the LUA, and everything seems to work fine. I go to test, but I can't select the CPs. They show up, but you cant spawn from them. I get these errors in the BFront2 log:

Message Severity: 3

Message Severity: 3

Pretty straightforward. But, I have those paths in ZE, and they are named correctly (they match up with what I put in the SpawnPath slot for the CP object). It doesn't make any sense!

Did I do something wrong? here is the UT2c_ord66.lua:

As always, any Help would be Greatly Appreciated!!

Are the paths in the same layer as the CPs? I think it says somewhere in the docs that the capture/control/spawn junk for CPs have to be in the same layer.


If that's not it... I haven't a clue.

do you have 7 nodes for the spawn path?

@Archer - First thing I checked, same layer.

@Gogie - Most have 6, some have 7, but, I didn't think it mattered.

Sorry for the Double post, but I tried to remake the paths, and they still aren't working.

However, I have another possible oprtion to fix this.

I could use the Conquest Layer, But I would need some Code for the LUA to:

1.) Disable the Capture Regions of the CPs and

2.) Assign What CPs belong to which Team. (Right now, it is 1 starting point for each team, the rest are neutral.)

If someone could help me out with this, or Has another idea, Tha would Be great!

SetProperty("cpName","CaptureRegion","NoRegionForYou")

--Sets the capture region to something that doesn't exist. This will cause a level 3 message to appear in the log, but it doesn't seem to cause any problems. The develeopers themselves did this in some of the campaign missions.



SetProperty("cpName","team",#)

Thanks Archer! Munging now....

Hmm. It crashed, but with only the expected "NoRegionForYou" errors.

Where did you put the commands? They should go into the ScriptPostLoad() function.

They're in ScriptPostLoad. There were some wierd severity 2's though. I'll post them When I get home (I'm at work (bleh)).

This might be the problem:

Message Severity: 2
.\Source\Combo.cpp(2635)
Combo[0fa87c00]::State[JUMPATTACK_LAND]::Transition: failed to add Combo::Transition to state 'IDLE' [c301cf93] (140 needed)

Even though it's a severity 2, it is a pretty serious combo error, and there are alot of them, with alot of different transitions. What does this Message mean? do I need to increase the Combo::Transition memory pool?

Edit: AHA!! Victory is mine!!! The problem was, the LUa didn't have these lines:

SetMemoryPoolSize ("ClothData",20)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo",50) -- should be ~ 2x number of jedi classes
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::State",650) -- should be ~12x #Combo
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Transition",650) -- should be a bit bigger than #Combo::State
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Condition",650) -- should be a bit bigger than #Combo::State
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Attack",1000) -- should be ~8-12x #Combo
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::DamageSample",60000) -- should be ~8-12x #Combo::Attack
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Deflect",100) -- should be ~1x #combo

But, Now I have a new problem: Some of the lightsaber's don't do any damage, and they can't deflect! Saber throw works, but regular attacks don't. I get a ton of these errors:

Message Severity: 2
.\Source\Combo.cpp(1662)
Combo::Attack: failed to add Combo::DamageSample (1352 needed)

This looks alot like the old error, but both the "Combo::Attack" and the "Combo::DamageSample" memory pools are over 1352 (the highest messge).

That error is always anoying...

this is what my hero assault LUA combo memory has and it doesnt have that problem any more.

SetMemoryPoolSize ("ClothData",20)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo",50)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::State",650)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Transition",650)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Condition",650)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Attack",550)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::DamageSample",6000)
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Deflect",100)

I dont know if that will work though

Sorry Syth, but that's the same as the lines that I used (I just edited them).

THere is one difference though between our combo lines, yours says
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::DamageSample",60000)

Mine says
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::DamageSample",6000)

It might be that if you set a pool to high it cancels out or something. I dont know.

Funny, it seems your solution works, Syth. I changed that memory pool Back to 6000, and now all of the jedi work! (at least, I think. I haven't tested them all yet )

Edit: some of the parts of the combos still do not work, but it is improvement!!
