One other thing Ive noticed Dave, if I open the BFTB(default) or COTA estabs in the Estab editor I can open a service, say Luftwaffe, with no issues. If I try to open a service using a copied estab I get what looks like a .net error:

Bumping for consideration in the next patch.

Tried the estab editor after upgrading to 5.0.12 . I copy the estab and save it the hit compile and get the following output (not the error message I got before):

But I notice that the new image folder is empty. I then copied the images in the empty folder and hit compile again. Bingo!! It seems to work.

If this has worked how do I point the scenario to the new estab file?

If this has worked how do I point the scenario to the new estab file?

I have added a new Estab Migration feature to the ScenMaker which will be out in the next build - ie 5.0.13. See the thread in the main section for more details:
http://forums.lnlpublishing.com/threads/estab-migration-new-scenmaker-feature.1678/

 

[TMO]

Estab editor appears to have stopped working again with the new build. If I do a save and compile I get the original error I reported back March:

and the following compiler output:

> C:\LnLGames\Command Ops 2\EMDebug.exe -compile "C:\LnLGames\Command Ops 2\Estabs\BFTBtest.xml".

Anyone else confirm this? It was all working fine for 5.0.13.

Regards

Tim

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

Tim,

Do you mean you get the errors about the images ( eg. ERROR: object 25 (weapon): Image 3385 was referenced but doesn't exist)?

If so, then it's because you always need to make a copy of the image directory if you change the estab file name. This is not done automatically for you. It's a manual process you need to do before you compile.

 

[TMO]

No, don't get message about missing images just the error message I posted yesterday which is the same error as that with the original version of CO2. (See my previous two posts).

Regards

Tim

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

OK thanks for clarifying that. I will look into this.

 

[TMO]

Dave

On 18 March you posted

Yep. The error msg indicates a call to the debug version of EM. That's not right. I'll look into it. Thanks

Doesn't the compiler output

> C:\LnLGames\Command Ops 2\EMDebug.exe -compile "C:\LnLGames\Command Ops 2\Estabs\BFTBtest.xml".

suggest the debug version of EM is now being used?

Regards

Tim

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

Yes that's what I said.

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

OK Tim I think I have worked why this occurred. We do both release and debug builds. The EstabEditor should only be done as a release build. For some reason it got added back into the configuration of the debug build and clobbered the release version. My bad. Please download and replace your existing EstabEditor with this one and confirm if that fixes your problem.

 

[TMO]

Replacing with this new one works a treat! A word of warning - if you don't replace the existing version but run this replacement alongside the old one you get the following error:

Guess the clue is in the word 'replacement'!! Many thanks Dave.

Regards

Tim

 

[TMO]

Dave

I'm afraid that the debug version of the Estab editor has come through again with the latest build 5.0.15.

Regards

Tim

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

You're right Tim. This is getting annoying. I just checked and my config changes have been reverted for some reason.

 

[Dave 'Arjuna' O'Connor]

Try this one.

 

[TMO]

Looks fine now.

Regards

Tim
