Sky dome - crashes [Solved]

ARCTroopaNate · Post by **ARCTroopaNate** » Sat Dec 10, 2011 8:45 pm

I added in an imperial star destroyer dome and trade federation lander dome and now my map crashes and I got this from the log. (Map crashes after loading 9-10 of the dots.) It was working fine before. These errors confuse me and if anyone could make any sense of them I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hidden/Spoiler:

Message Severity: 3

c:\battlefront2\main\pebblefl\common\PblConfig.h(30)

PblConfig: invalid config; 'DATA' chunk expected

chunk.GetId() == _ID( 'D', 'A', 'T', 'A' )

Message Severity: 3

c:\battlefront2\main\pebblefl\common\PblConfig.h(35)

PblConfig: invalid config; 'DATA' chunk with invalid string table

m_uiNumArgs*4 + uiStringTableLen <= CONFIG_MAX_DATA_ARGS*4

You've had a similar problem before but never confirmed if it was solved and just abandoned it:

Can you post your *.sky file? It could be a syntax error just like your other topic.

My Sky File.

Are those dome models loaded in your LUA? Also, it appears you are missing a skydome model...

Oh, and sky objects don't go in DomeInfo; each one goes in its own SkyObject().

Thank you all for your suggestions! My map is now running smoothly. [SOLVED]

You need to pay attention where you are inserting code, you can't just put it anywhere in these files. The engine expects certain formatting to read the files properly. There is a slew of stock examples to cross-reference when editing any text files in the modtools. I think a lot of these user errors spawn from folks getting over excited or trying to rush when it really isn't necessary, slow down and take your time, there is plenty of it.
I'm marking your other thread [Solved] too.

Thanks! And I'll be sure to remember your advice next time!
