Howdy Hiroki, it's a good idea to include two things when seeking help on one of your scripts: Add the script itself to your post so we can see it (using the 'spoiler feature in the post tools above the text box is helpful), and also open up the scipt.log file that is in your main FFvTTR directory. It's just a simple text file, but it holds info on things that don't work after each mission you play. You can copy that and paste it into this post (or another, if the character limit is too low). Then we should be able to help you! ^_^
Hi Hiroki,
A few more questions: are you starting this as a rumble room session or as campaign/freeroam? When you say nothing happens, what exactly do you mean? I.E. are you able to move around the map but the first encounter never fires (no red arrow)? Did you copy/paste from the user guide? Did you double check your spelling?
B92
I was starting it as a rumble room session, and yeah I can move around but the first encounter never fires (no red arrow) although the first villain is there just standing. I did copy some things but had to edit most of them, I check the spelling, but aside from spelling error in some of the dialogue I didn't see any thing (unless its cutscene which was supposed to be 2 words)
I can't test your script now, but I can give you some tips you may find interesting:
I'd recommend you to use always the same notation, e.g:
...
Yellow arrow on Villain1
Start Cutscene:
Villain1 says, "I'll kill you, do-gooder"
...
Maybe it doesn't matter at all and the script works fine without it, but I feel safer doing that.
To look for errors, I do the following:
I do a new mission and name it 'test.txt'
I copy and test every encounter one by one: I copy and paste the first one and then I play it. Then the second one and so on.
There you can find which encounter is not working. Once you know it, it's easier to debug it.
Other useful thing to minimize code errors is to use templates. I have working templates for almost every standard encounter and when I want a fight, an examination, an interrogation... I customize the template. You can find most of them at the Ezscript wiki:
http://ezscript.wikispaces.com/Mini-Mods
I hope it helps you!
I tried testing by encounter but even the first one didn't initialize.. :(
Hiroki,
I, too, am at a loss. First thing, download one of Imalonsof's minimods and try it. If those don't work, you may have some kind of internal problem which would require a reinstall to fix (yuck!).
Otherwise, try Imalonsof's suggestion about changing Villain to Villain1. One last thing: there seems to be some trouble with the attributes on your "tb bullseye" character (at end of the log). Try replacing this character with something more generic and see if the encounter fires then. It'a longshot...but it's all I got.
Sorry
B92
I think I may have to reinstall, I tried the flash mod and it also doesn't work...what do I need to reinstall to fix this?
It looks like the game can't find 'tb typhoid mary'. Make sure you have the spelling exactly the same as the character name (including capital letters).
fixed it it should have been v not tb Thanks M25. but now I have another problem...it starts up now but the cutscenes don't show up and the heroes and villains don't seem to be making any damage to each other..
OK, post your new script.log.

fixed that :lol: but they still can't damge each other :unsure:
Hmmm, that is odd. If you are having trouble with the other ez script rumble room missions too, the I'd say you need to reinstall ffx 3.2
Edit: Just a thought... if you are using invulnerability on your characters, it could be enough to prevent your characters from being hurt.
I actually reinstalled ffx 3.2 laready even before this happened :unsure: I didn't put invulnerability on either Bullseye or Typhoid...I also tried the 4 in built mini mods and they seem to work fine.. :(
If no one suffers damage and melee attacks always hit, the RPG_SetActive(0) (or rpgOff()) command is active. It's usually used for cutscenes.
Note that this is a standard FF scripting command, not EZ Script.
so what can I do to fix it? actually some of the attacks miss but when they hit it doesn't do damge
Hmmm... if melee don't always hit, it must be something else. To be certain, open the FF console (procedure: http://freedomreborn.net/archive/index.php?topic=41006.msg572260#msg572260), type RPG_SetActive(1) and check if characters take damage normally. I haven't any further idea, though.
I haven't been able to reproduce the problem. When I run your story (with different villains as I don't have yours) it works as it should.
I know this is a pain, but try using different villains in the first encounter, preferably ones that came with the game (such as thug_with_bat). I suspect there is something going on with the attributes on the villains you are using.
ok here is what happened..I changed the villains to thugs from the game, they can damage them now but apparently I can only damage one of them...and when I defeated them nothing happened... :blink:

as for the RPG_SetActive can this be found in the localinit?
mine only has this

I don't think you can use RPG_setActive, it's a pytho scripting command not an EZ script one.
Please forget RPG_SetActive(); your problem is definitively not related to this, after all. Similar apparent symptoms, different illness.
(FWIW, the FF console I referred to allows you to enter FF Python (not EZ Script) commands interactively while you play. More info in the FF mod tools docs, IIRC.)
I still can't reproduce the problem on a standard install of FFX 3.2 final, and EZ script doesn't use RPG_SetActive().
Since the Flash mod doesn't work for you either, I suggest a complete re-install of the game (not just ffx).
if I reinstall would I lose all the heroes that I made?
No. They will remain quite safe in there own directory.
You will need to export all you FFX customizations, however, and re-import them after the install.
Now if you did anything in FFEdit, .dat merges and the like, that will be lost, but it should be simple enough to do it again.
Thanks :thumbup: I'll reinstall and see if it works
nothing changed its still the same problem :(

There's a file in ffx3/Missions/Scripts/ called m25config.py. In that file is a line that looks something like M25_USE_REPORTS = 0
change that to a 1, and then post the script log again, or email it to me if it is too large to post. It will at least give more information.
Also, do you have the US or the European version of the game, which version of FFX are you using, and do you have any other mods you are using?
curious when I changed the villain to the basic freedom force thug (2 of the same) I managed to damage them...I was using one thug_bat_n and one thug_extra before but couldn't damage the thug_extra so I change both to the one with the bat and managed to damge them both.. :blink:
M25 I'll email you the script its too long could you message me you email add?
and thanks a lot again for the help I really appreciate it :)

Take out the colon after "Chat" and it should work
QuoteChat: Cutscene:
For the talking heads: try putting the head.nif from the "defaulthead" folder in ffx3 into your character folders (along with character.nif and keyframes). It might not make a difference, but it can't hurt. Just make sure you have portraits in these characters as that's what the head.nif uses.

In your chat cutscene you have references to Hero1 and Hero2. If you play the mission with only one hero, the cutscene will never play, since EZ script can't find two different heroes to say the dialogue.
Chat Cutscene:
Ally turns to Hero1
Hero1 turns to Ally
Ally says, "Sorry to disturb sir, Agent 16 reporting."
Hero1 says, "A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent?"
Ally says, "Yes sir, S.H.I.E.L.D. intelligence just reported that Mysterio has been spotted with a group of Ultron bots."
THE PROBLEM IS HERE ----> Hero2 says, "Mysterio?"
Ally says, "S.H.I.E.L.D. has requsted your presence in the scene."
Hero1 says, "Thank you soldier, we are on our way."
Hero1 says: "you heard the man, lets move!."
In your Save Civilian Cutscene (and probably others) it looks like you wrote it in Word or some other word processing program. The problem here is that word processors don't use standard quotation marks when they save to text files. You have to go into the text file and change all of the quotation marks to the standard " (not " or "). EZ script currently can't read the dialogue correctly so it looks like it isn't playing.
In the start cutscene you've used both 'hero' and 'Hero1' which is probably not what you wanted.
The talking head issue:
When you use dialogue in your cutscene that already exists in the game (things like "Thank you.") EZ script will try to use a talking head. If the character doesn't have a talking head (ffq_civilian_female does not), then it will display the speech caption without the head.
To follow up on the previous problem Hiroki8 was having with characters not being able to damage each other - the 'affects enemies only' option was checked on the powers being used. This option can cause problems as characters spawned from custom heroes won't register as enemies for the purpose of the 'affects enemies only' option, even when you've labeled them as villains in EZ script.
I have a new question:
how come when I start this encounter up the ally I'm supposed to talk to disappears before I even get to talk to him? :unsure:

It looks correct. Check the name of the ally to make sure it matches the name of the hero file.
its working now :thumbup: apparently I can't start the mission with that encounter..by the way can I make any ally teleport out of that scene?
I was able to start a mission with that encounter, but I'm glad it's working for you now regardless.
You can teleport an ally anywhere, but you need to have something on the map to teleport them to, either a marker or another character.
Quotehow come when I start this encounter up the ally I'm supposed to talk to disappears before I even get to talk to him?
I think I found the problem:
QuoteAlly says Telepathically, "Heroes! your help is needed!"
Since the ally is already part of the encounter, you do not have to use "Telepathically".
Just a thought
B92
I try it again if the telepathic conversation has any effect..about the teleportation thing..I was using the conversation as professor X being an astral projection but it would look weird if he ran away after the encounter.. any ideas on how to fix this?
If memory serves, "telepathically" allows you to use a character who is not part of the encounter. Try this:
Encounter: Request
Type: Cutscene
Alert Cutscene:
cinematic camera on Hero1
Prof X astral says Telepathically, "Heroes! your help is needed!"
Hero1 says, "Charles? What is the problem?"
Prof X astral says Telepathically, "I was recently contacted by Lilandra, she warned me of an invasion force that she believes is already on Earth."
Hero1 says, "An invasion? but by whom?"

Hero1 says, "We will do what we can."
Prof X astral says Telepathically: "Thank you, I will be in telepathic contact and assist you in anyway I can."
You don't get the cool effect on Professor X, but you also don't have to worry about teleporting anything, and you should be able to use this for all Professor X's "psychic" dialogue.

[/spoiler]..
after the first encounter the second one becomes an error
speak telepathically probably won't work correctly for characters in hero files. It's meant for built-in characters - otherwise the game has no template to work from.
I would go with the first version you posted, where the Prof gets teleported to the hero. If you want the character to speak and then disappear, you can destroy them at the end of the cutscene.
Ally is destroyed.
Thanks :D I'll try that :thumbup:
question: would it be possible to simulate shapeshifting in a cutscene? like a civilian turning into a Skrull for instance.
