[FH2 2.45] Crash problem
« on: 16-07-2012, 16:07:30 »
Okay to get this fixed,

I have modded content on the new update to FH2. I changed some kits and also changed the faction on OP Cobra to the uw_airborne player models, but when I load the map, I have NO kits visible to select from the spawn menu, and when I try to spawn, it CTD. Anyone know a possible fix for this? Not too much difference from 2.4 to 2.45 as far as modding goes so wondering where I am having these problems from.

There will be a tutorial soon. The way the game loads kits has been changed.

You can also check tmp.con in server.zip. It contains and auto-generated (by our packing script) list of all kits on the map, so if you add a custom kit, you must tell the game to load it in that file. Like ts4 said, there will be a tutorial about this shortly.

Thanks fellas for the help. I have been modding BF2 for about 2 years now just out of boredom. Not even close to being an actual scripter but well on my way thanks to you guys. Tango Mike.

Hope it will come soon since Stonne keep crashing at 14% (even with back ups !! they were working on 2.4 without any problem)

Stubb was correct.

It all has to do with the tmp.con/inc file in the server.zip
I have only done the kits aspect and am working on the factions.

That's greatly appreciated, but Python is a little confusing....

How would I use python to open the .py files?
I try to open with -> and cant find python anywhere after i installed it....

I successfully packed, but it keeps crashing. It was working fine on 2.4, don't know why on 2.45 it isn't. So here is the link of the map, if someone can help me !

I still dont know why I need Python to edit things inside the map.....Is there a way to unpack the map I just packed too?

Cptde, i shall look at it. Will be away until friday though.

Buster: You don't need pyton to edit something in the map. Python script is mainly for packing your unpacked map, ie if you're making your own map. BUT, python script will automatically fix your tmp.con with the correct kits loaded.

Unpacking of the map is just unpacking the zips.

You need it because the way kits are loaded changed in 2.45. Previously every time you started a map, the game loaded EVERY SINGLE FUCKING KIT in the mod, which, as you can imagine, adds up. So now you have to specify which kits have to be loaded for your map and luckily enough the devs made a script so you don't have to change it per hand.

Thanks.

Still wondering when this tutorial is coming out. Messing with this tmp.con file is annoying.
