I've got the latest version, or at least I'm pretty sure I do.  I did combine my info from an earlier version with the new FFX folder.  I wonder if I accidentally re-introduced that bug.  What file was it in?  I can replace it and see if it makes a difference.

You know...it's funny, this is the very first mission I started working on, and it's the only one that's given me a substantial amount of trouble.  I've already finished two others and a base.txt, but this one still has to be peculiar. :P

The file to replace is m25event.py

Also make sure you have a folder with the path  missions/scripts/ffxplugins/active/m25cutscene_power

Thanks M25, I've checked those files, and replaced them, so I'll test in a bit and see if it works.

Meanwhile, I'm setting up the next mission and I could use a little advice from the EZScript elite.  I've got Batman and Robin patrolling Gotham, they come across the Joker robbing a bank.  Now, what I'd like to happen at this point is two-fold, and I know how to do each part, but I don't know how to integrate them.  So, I'd like the Joker and his minions to flee with a bag 'o cash, while at the same time, somewhere on the map, Harley Quinn appears with a bomb that starts counting down.  Any advice?

Hmm....well, I had a thought that using a start when command and "Clown Prince at Start" might work, but I didn't get a chance to see if I was right, as I had some kind of error with the heist encounter:

I'm going to try removing the Joker and seeing what happens.

Well, Joker seems to be doing something, since when I removed him that encounter ran, but I can't figure out what, as when I tried him in the rumble room, he worked fine.  The bomb encounter doesn't seem to be starting as I'd hoped.  Here is the script as it stands:

To get two encounters to run at the same time, you can branch to both using the Next: part of a lead-in encounter.


Encounter: kitty cat
Next: Clown Prince, Tick Tock


As to the other issue, something is triggering a problem with an ffx attribute.  Which ones does joker have?

Yeah, I was hoping for the counter to start only once the Joker makes his threat...but I suppose I can do it that way and just add extra time in. 

Joker has hatemonger customized to acid burnt, but I suppose I'll just change it back to the default.

Okay, monkeyed around with it some more tonight and I think it's the effects that are causing some of my problems.  I'll experiment with them more tomorrow.  However now that the bomb encounter works, I can't disarm the bomb.  There's no command to do so, and when the timer runs out, it simply recycles.

You must be running the beta version, since the disarm bomb problem was fixed in the final release.  Be sure to use the latest versions of m25enc.py and m25cutscene.py

Hmm.........I could swear that I've completely updated....I suppose I'll re-download and tripple check.

:EDIT: Okay, I've re-installed FFX 3.2, so that's all set.  I think I was up to date, but you can't be too careful.  So, I've also removed all of the 'play effect' and 'teleport' entries, as one of them was giving me trouble, and I didn't particularly care to chase it down.  Now, all of my cutscenes work, and the problems I have are pertaining to the boom.  For one, the disarm still isn't working.  Now, I think that this may be a mesh issues, as I can't effect the bomb in any way, but it shouldn't be since I added a bounding box to the nif.  I'm going to try a different mesh tonight and we'll see if that's the issue.  Still, we also have to problem of the timer.  It seems to reset after I complete the Joker's encounter.  Any suggestions?

Did you run the FFX Control Centre after updating? The absence of FFX CC branding could cause these log errors.

The mesh is a problem if you can't interact with it.  That's not an EZ script issue.

The Tick Tock encounter is restarting (or more likely starting twice), due to the flow of the mission.  Since there is no Next: line in the Clown Prince encounter, EZ script just runs the next encounter in the text.  You need a Next: line to explicitly tell EZ script what to do.

I would do it this way:

Encounter: Clown Prince
Next: None

Encounter: Tick Tock
Next: None

Encounter: Knock on Wood
Starts When: Clown Prince at end, Tick Tock at end

Thanks M25, that solves that problem at least.  Yeah, I know the mesh thing would be its own problem, and I'm going to try and test it tomorrow. 

Hmm...I THINK I've run it Em, but I'm not sure.  I've run it now, so my next test should tell me.

Okay guys, I've tested a good deal more and the bomb's problems are fixed, everything is working like a charm now, so I decided to go back and investigate the whole effects issue.  Apparently, whenever EZScript tries to play one, it chokes, and the cutscene freezes.  Here's what the script.log looks like:

[/spoiler]

As you can see, it can't find the FX, even though I've tried custom, built in, and FFX versions.  What's up?

Is "ffx_blank" listed in FFEdit when opening your mod's files?

Yep, it and all the others I've tried I looked up in the fx tab of FFEdit.  I tried that one, aff_boom_orange, generic_fire_explosion, and fire_minion_detonation.  These are all area effects, if that makes a difference.

The fx tab is only for powers.  If you want to play an effect in game on a character you have to use one from the resources tab (res.dat).  Yes, it is confusing, but that is how the game defines it.

And the "effect_ffx_blank" is also there under the resources tab, I suppose?

If it's there, please open the console from a RR mission and type:
Object_PlayEffect("hero_0", "ffx_blank")
The first hero should play the blank FX once.

(EDIT: Ninja'ed by M25)

Thanks guys, this is now working!  On a related note, is there any way to force a mission to end if you fail an encounter, or, on the other hand, force it to end once a certain encounter is completed succesfully?

To force the mission to end use

Next: End


You can also use

Next: Win

or

Next: Lose

Thanks M25, I'm slowly but surely working my way through these.  Can anyone here tell me how to add FFX weapons onto a map?

> Can anyone here tell me how to add FFX weapons onto a map?

If you haven't found it already, you can check the Mod-Making: Special Objects page of the FFX manual?

Ah-ha!  Thanks Em, I went through the manual, but I didn't think to look there....doh!  I knew the answer had to be in there, thanks again!

Okay, back on Batman, and having another spot of trouble.  I've got a mission where Batman and Robin have to search for clues while assassins hunt them.........or that's what SHOULD happen.  Instead, they spawn in and nothing starts.  Here is the script:

In FFvTTR, you can set a map to spawn a special 'target object' that is used (I think) for multiplayer missions.  Look in the directory of the map you are using... the danger.py file (or one of the py files) on line 10 is an Object_Spawn command.  Comment that line out (put a # in front of it), or delete the file completely and it should work.

Thanks M25, I figured it was something outside of my script! :)

Alrighty, well I fixed that issue, and now the spawn error no longer shows up, but the encounters still don't start.  It gives me a report about error storyfile name or something along those lines.  I've double checked the names, everything seems to be in order.  Well, I'll do some more testing and get back with more info.

Okay, I'm sick of that Batman story for the moment, so I'm working on the Question adventure at the moment.  Things seem to be working well, except the first Alert Cutscene doesn't seem to want to work.  Here's the story, and there's nothing in the script log, not much help:

Ally3 says, "No!"
Ally4 says, "What are you gonna' do about it?"

Villain1 says, "You can find him at the 'ol night club, 'dats where we meet."
Hero1 says, "Thanks for the directions, now you wait here until the police pick you up, or I'll be back..."[/spoiler]

Eureka!  I figured it out, I was calling for FOUR minions to move, when there were only THREE spawning....d'oh!  It's all fixed up now, and it plays like a charm!

Alright, I've repaired two of the five broken Batman missions, but the first one has got me completely stumped.  The script.log shows nothing, no error messages.  The mission starts, but nothing spawns or initializes.  This worked perfectly last time I played it, without a single hitch.  Can anyone tell me what is wrong with it?

If you haven't made any changes to the story since you last played it, then you've likely made changes to the map and/or the .dat files, or maybe you're playing it on a different map.

Make sure the map you are using has a marker called oprea1 or oprea on it and make sure a character called lenny_weasel exists in the .dat files.   (Do you mean opera instead of oprea?)
