BFront2 Error [Solved]

bokkenblader56 · Post by **bokkenblader56** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 5:14 pm

I have a strange kind of error, and I have no idea what's wrong. As far as I can see, I haven't done anything wrong. However, judging from the few posts I've actually made, I could've done anything. Here it is:

Code: Select all

Message Severity: 3
.\Source\LuaCallbacks_Mission.cpp(866)
Lua ReadDataFile: Could not open dc:SIDE\imp.lvl

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It can't open that file. Are you trying to make a custom side? If not, remove the dc: in your lua script where you find ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\imp.lvl"

Did you modify the req at all and do you get any errors in your pcmunge log?

Yes, I'm trying to add a custom unit to the side.

Yes, I got these. Didn't modify req.

WARNING[PC_modelmunge msh\imp_1st_bobafett.msh]:imp_1st_bobafett has 1102 vertices and NO COLLISION GEOMETRY (WILL BE SLOW)!

EDIT
Okay, I solved that error, but now I have another problem. My unit only has four weapons. I want six. I've added the appropriate lines in the ODF file, but it still doesn't work.

Also, how can I cause any changes I make to the common odf files such as "com_weap_inf_sniper_rifle" transfer into the game?

*EDIT* Sorry for the double post, I should've just edited the previous one.

first: post your units odf

second: just make a child odf of the common, "readjust" the lines that linked to the common odf to the new odf and write the changes into the new odf, everything thats not mentioned in the new odf will be taken from the parent (common) odf

third: delet your last post and copy and paste its conted to your post before

I'm not sure if this is what you're asking, but you can only have 8 weapons total: 4 primary and 4 secondary

I should've made that clearer; it sounded a bit...foggy. I want 3 primary weapons and 3 secondary weapons (no, I still haven't given up on that unit). Here's the weapons section of the ODF

Code: Select all

WEAPONSECTION = 1
WeaponName1         = "imp_weap_inf_sniper_rifle"
WeaponAmmo1         = 0

WEAPONSECTION = 2
WeaponName2         = "imp_weap_hero_flamethrower"
WeaponAmmo2         = 0

WEAPONSECTION 		= 3
WeaponName3   		= "imp_weap_hero_bobarifle"
WeaponAmmo3			= 0

WEAPONSECTION		= 4
WeaponName4			= "imp_weap_inf_invisibility"
WeaponAmmo4			= 0
WeaponChannel4		= 1

WEAPONSECTION		= 5
WeaponName5			= "imp_weap_inf_wrist_rocket"
WeaponAmmo5			= 0
WeaponChannel5		= 1

WEAPONSECTION		= 6
WeaponName6			= "imp_weap_inf_thermaldetonator"
Weaponammo6			= 0
WeaponChannel6		= 1

And thanks to Darth D.U.C.K. I was able to change the weapons I do have in-game to what I wanted. Thanks again.

So ... solved?

bokkenblader56 · Post by **bokkenblader56** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 3:06 pm

Nope. Those last two secondary weapons aren't showing up in-game for some reason. I have absolutely no idea why since everything int he ODF file seems to be present and correct.

Post by **Maveritchell** » Tue Oct 14, 2008 3:23 pm

Weapon***5 and Weapon***6 have no meaning (Only Weapon***1-4 do). Don't add a number on to those WeaponName/Ammo/Channels, otherwise it won't add them.

Problem solved. Once again, thanks to all the people who helped the newbie.
