Internal Errors, Have a IE? Post here! Options

[sniper]

I copied the guides code exactly and checked it multiple times for things that didnt match up but I cant find anything. Is it possible that I put the code in the wrong place within rules.ini or art.ini?

Heres where everything is:

rules.ini

25=FireBurst

; fireball from flame tank <this is where it normally was
[[FireballLauncher]
Damage=10
ROF=80
Burst=4
Range=5.5
Projectile=Fireball
Speed=40
Warhead=FireBurst
Report=FLAMTNK1
Bright=yes

[Fireball] <under Projectile Statistics
Image=FIREBALL
Arcing=true
Inaccurate=yes
Bouncy=yes
Elasticity=0.0

; flamethrower WH <under Warhead Characteristics
[FireBurst]
Spread=64
Wood=yes
Tiberium=yes
Verses=600%,148%,80%,40%,20%
InfDeath=4
Sparky=yes
Fire=yes
ProneDamage=100%


art.ini


[FIREBALL] <under Projectile Objects
Trailer=FLAMETRAILER

[FLAMETRAILER] <under Animation Overlays
Damage=2
Warhead=FireBurst
Normalized=yes
Translucent=yes

Make sure you've added FireBurst to the Warheads list, and FIREBALL and FLAMETRAILER to the animation list in rules.ini.

Also make sure that the weapon name is written correctly in the devils tongue's rules ([SUBTANK], if I remember correctly).

If you spot no errors, you'll either have to keep looking (possibly rewrite all the code) or get Hyper to check the except.txt.

My buddy gets an IE after building his second power plant when he is GDI. We are playing a LAN match with the wsock32.dll .

2kool4u526 I didn't look at your except.txt, but that sounds like a ini error. Dose this happen on vanilla TS?

[2kool4u526]

2 things:

1. It is an rules.ini error, but I'm hoping that hyper can narrow down to which sectoin the error is coming from.
2. IDK what "vanilla" ts is???

[I_Am]

Vanilla TS just means with out any mods or anything, basically right off the disks.

That isn't working with TFD. Asks for the cd-rom.

[SeekSomethingNew]

Use Nyerguds NoCd patch then.

What does that mean???

I checked my projectiles and my warheads but there is no problem there.

[SeekSomethingNew]

Im just telling you what the game points to, that is what it was after.

[2kool4u526]

1 question
How do u tell what the errors are by looking at the except document???

[SeekSomethingNew]

I have a database of the games executable, and i can read its code.

[Orac]

And there's that EIP at the top, isn't there?

[SeekSomethingNew]

Yup

Bombed when drawing something... not sure where since it's extremely vague...

[Nyerguds]

That's totally useless. You need to at least post the top of the except.txt file.

[Infinity]

uh, Nyer, I was replying to I_Am.

[Devastator]

I do not no about bumping on this topic
But I was playing my mod, but doing the original TS missions (not FS)
I finish the second Nod Mission. On the map selecting thing, i moved the mouse onto them and no words or sound appeared from CABAL's voice as usual. I clicked on one and got an IE... CONFUSING!!

Seriously Hyper? You no longer pay attention to any except.txt and as far as I know you are the only one who knows how to use these.
But for the hell of it, here is one I got while LKO's Scorpion killed an enemy Cyborg Commando in my mod.

Posted for two reasons.
1) Obviously, to avoid this happening again.
2) To motivate you to help us out again.

Hyper doesn't have a computer right now and this place isn't really alive (so no reason to visit TibWeb as often as before). Also no one can force him to help, he's done it volunteerly before and has done a great job.

As for the exception, I have no idea about that, could be something random or a INI coding error somewhere (if the exception can be reproduced).
Also I'm not exactly sure about it but I think Nyerguds and Beowulf can also use the except.txt's like Hyper.

[Devastator]

Sorry to hear that because Hyper posted two weeks ago. But I sent him this except.txt through PM and this was before the last time he posted. Therefore, he could've helped me out but decided not to. It's alright I guess, just like moderators turning down any suggestions I may give them. (Which hasn't happened yet)

Anyways I figured out the problem. It was an INI coding error. Why it happened is because the Cyborg Commando must've gotten elite when it killed my two Scorpions. (Yes Cyborg Commandos are trainable in my mod) It had the key Elite=CyCannonE but I never got to creating the elite weapon so it crashed when it got elite.

This also taught me that AI units can get elite which I didn't know because it's really hard to tell since you can only tell if your units are elite. In RA2, you don't even have to select a unit to tell you and it displays elite AI units too.

[Devastator]

Not sure what caused this IE. Check it out.
