Howdy once again guys! I'm back in town, which means I'm back to work on the DCUG. I'm afraid I've hit something of a wall with the final MiS mission, so I could use some help. A few of the encounters seem to be working alright, but I've got various bugs. I've managed to solve a few, but they had friends. Here is the script:

So, here's what is SUPPOSED to happen. The rocket is REALLY well guarded, so you've got to do one or two things to increase your chances to disable the thing. Attacking the guys with the loot from the city SHOULD cause most of the troops guarding the rocket to head towards you, since their marker is in the same location, even though they are set to spawn by the rocket. The Stash1 encounter works, but the baddies by the rocket aren't triggering like they should. The Turret5 encounter isn't working at all, not even the villains are spawning. The Boss1 encounter is also being weird, but I think I know why. I've also got some texture problems. I'm spawning in the thanagarian ship, which is a vehicle and in that section in the art folder, but it is showing up as mottled black and white. There is nothing showing up on the script.log. Any thoughts?
Turret5 doesn't start because there is no path to it in the story. I'm guessing you want to start it after the 'begin' encounter
Encounter: Begin
Type: Cutscene
Next: Escape1, Turret1, Turret2, Turret3, Turret4, Boss1, Stash1, Guard1, Turret5
The troops from the rocket aren't moving because getting close to the marker doesn't start an encounter. The hero has to be near one of the participants in the encounter (the villains, objects, minions, allies, etc.). You could place one of the villains near the loot2 marker and that will trigger the encounter.
D'oh! Man, having another set of eyes is so important for these things...I need to teach Prev. the basics of EZScript and make him proof-read my scripts. :P Thanks M!
Ahh, I see...I thought that the encounter marker determined the radius. It should be pretty simple to add another villain over there. Thanks man!
Also, about the texture issues...anyone have an idea about how I should address them?
Great, so after shifting gears to test the JLA campaign all the way through, I ran into a CTD bug on the very first freaking mission! This thing was working fine until I actually campaign-ified it. So, I've got two issues, and they may be related. The first combat encounter has two martians, and once gameplay starts, Villain1 does nothing. He just sits there until you knock him out. That's when the second issue arises. I get this message and a CTD: "alert: CTalkingHead::init, NIF has no camera, custom_characters\White_Martian\character.NIF

Now, the white_martian character has an animportrait entry, and as far as I can tell the darn thing is set up correctly, so it SHOULDN'T be that...especially considering the fact that I haven't even configured the mission to use talking heads yet!
:EDIT: Okay, I solved the first problem. I had called for "animation pain" in the cutscene, which does weird things to characters. I'm still getting the CTD, though.
Re: Headnif
This is probably the reason you're crashing. Note that your head nif doesn't work and you're calling the martians to talk...so because the head.nif isn't working, you're crashing.
The problem is pretty simple. Look at what you're calling in the head.nif area.
CTalkingHead::init, NIF has no camera, custom_characters\White_Martian\character.NIF
You need to call the "head.nif" not "character.nif" :P
custom_characters\White_Martian\head.NIF
D'oh! Thanks for pointing out the obvious, Prev! I guess that's why I pay you the big bucks. ^_^
Okay, things are about par for the course....JLA#1 is working perfectly again, and JLA#2 has problems. The final cutscene isn't wanting to play, but I have a readout from the script.log that might explain it to someone more savy than I. Here is the log entry:

That's an odd error. It's looking for an encounter called Survival1 and not finding it for some reason.

Sure M. That's odd, I am running a cut down portion of the script, trying to find the problem, but I had started with just Survival 1-the end, and I think I was getting the same or a similar problem.

On the Help encounter you have the Next pointing to an encounter called "Survival" but you have it scripted out as "Survival1"
Whoops! That is new. It was originally survival (and just survival) and a timer, and the timer would bring in Superman. I've changed that around, but forgot to edit that. Still, that wasn't effecting the latest round of testing, as it was only from Survial1 (or 3) down.
I'm not able to replicate the problem.
Can I see the (cut-down) mission as it looked when you were testing it? I also need to see the first part of the script.log where it shows how the mission was encoded (something like):

It looks ok at first glance. Are there any error messages?
None in the game itself. I'll have to test it again to check script.log.
In the meantime I've continued my testing of the JLA campaign, and thankfully got through several missions and base screens (oh how I hate base screens) without any problems that I wasn't able to solve myself. Until level 5, that is. Anyway, the base screen isn't playing, and I'm getting a bizarre error in the FF.log. It is bizarre that this base level doesn't even load. Like, if the map were loading, I'd hear things even though the screen is black. Instead, I can still hear the music from the main menu.

Thanks Grem! I always miss stuff like that...and I even read through this one SPECIFICALLY looking for those kinds of errors. I've edited it...but still no luck.
From this error:
00:14:14.47: FF: Error: loadBaseForCurrentMission: no base file found for campaign mission 04B_Flash_ht_neighborhood
I'd have to guess that there is an issue with a missing or damaged base.dat or base.py file. Make sure they are both there and that you can load the base.dat file in FFEdit.
Alright, I CAN load the base.dat file in FFEdit, and the base.py file is up to date. I'm still getting the same error. What should I do?
I've uploaded the file in question here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/bentongrey/files/ if anyone wants to try a more hands on approach.
The name of the directory you posted (04_JLA_ds_moon) is not the same as the one giving the error 04B_Flash_ht_neighborhood.
Maybe you have it pointing to the wrong folder in the campaign list in ffedit?
Urghhh.......does anyone want to test all the rest of my missions and base screens? I'm finding zillions of bugs. :(
No, no, M, I'm afraid it isn't that easy for me to solve. I'm just a complete and total moron... :banghead: Find the proper file here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/bentongrey/files/
Just to make sure...
the error says it is looking for 04B_Flash_ht_neighborhood, not 04B_JLA_ht_neighborhood.
Okay M, I think that you've inadvertently solved the mystery....apparently, at some point in time I renamed the mission AFTER I had added it to the campaign....so the campaign was looking for a mission that didn't exist....I'm a genius. :P I'll modify and test and let you know for sure. On a related note, playing the Flash mission itself, I find That one of the encounters is refusing to end. I had this issue earlier, but apparently it has come back to haunt me. Here is the script, with the pertinent area highlighted:

The encounter is working, but one of the civilians can't get close enough to the marker the civilians are fleeing to to trigger the end. Chances are if you play it again, it will work, but of course that's not the most elegant solution. You can place a marker nearby called apartment1_congregate on the map so that it is easier for the civilians to get to it.
Hmm...I have such a marker...maybe I should move it out into the street where they will be able to get closer. Also, should I reduce the number of civilians? Thanks M, I thought something like that might be the case, but I didn't have a clue how to solve it.
Well, the testing continues, and so do the bugs! The 5th level's base screen is actually loading now, thanks to M's astute observation, but the briefing cutscene will not play. Here is the cutscene in question:
Spoiler
Encounter: Briefing
Type: Cutscene
Starts When: Briefing
Start Cutscene:
Camera on aquaman_classis
aquaman_classis says, "It's not that simple Vulko, I think we need to take a firmer hand with Orm's supporters in the great houses. We can't afford to let them see us as weak."
vulko says "As you say, your majesty."
aquaman_classis, "Come on Vulko, it's bad enough that our people forced the crown on me, but I can't have you calling me 'your majesty' along with everyone else. It will start to go to my head!"
vulko says, "Haha, very well Arthur my boy, I'll refrain from using honorifics as long as we're in private. how does that strike you?"
aquaman_classis says, "It's a step in the right direction, now if I could talk the courtiers out of bowing every time they-"
aquaman_classis plays animation stunned
Play effect effect_mentor at aquaman_classis
vulko plays animation recover_from_stun
vulko says, "Lord Arthur! Are you alright, sire?"
aquaman_classis says, "I...I...that voice...in my mind again..."
vulko says, "A voice in your mind, sire? What is going on?"
aquaman_classis says, "It...it's been happening more and more often. It's like someone whispering in the back of my mind, only I could never make out the words...until now."
vulko says, "What is it...what is it saying?"
aquaman_classis plays animation melee_idle
aquaman_classis says, "I understand! I don't have any time to explain Vulko, but I have to leave for the surface. Something terrible is about to happen!"
aquaman_classis moves to throne1
aquaman_classis says, "I'll return as soon as I can...if I can. In the meantime muster the army and protect the kingdom!"
And the script.log, which doesn't have anything that jumps out at me:

Quoteaquaman_classis, "Come on Vulko, it's bad enough that our people forced the crown on me, but I can't have you calling me 'your majesty' along with everyone else. It will start to go to my head!"
Not a fix, but an observation. You're missing a "says", no? As for the script log, it keeps pointing out it cant find a start marker...dunno if that's the problem, so I'll leave that to m25. :P
Prev's right on both counts. It's looking for an encounter marker and not finding one. Put a marker named encounter1 somewhere on the map. And the second aquaman line is missing the says.
D'oh! STILL? I JUST read through it AGAIN looking for that. Prev...do the rest of my testing for me. :P Hmm...I've got an encounter_1.....and I guess that's the problem...apparently I put an underscore in there for no reason...urrghhh...Thanks guys, now on to the next problem caused by my stupidity. :banghead:
Okay, the briefing is now working like a charm, and the next mission as well...BUT, at the very end I had a CTD. I don't have a clue what caused it, and I can't see anything in the script.log or FF.log. I'm attaching the pertinent area of the mission. Unfortunately the pertinent area of the script.log is too big for the boards, so I'm uploading it.

flash says, "Now that I've got all of this under control, its time to catch up with Jonas' kidnappers. I should just be able to catch them before they leave town, but I'll need to search the city at super speed..."
Start Cutscene:
Camera on Villain1
Villain1 turns to flash
Villain1 says, "Jeez you're tenacious ain'cha'? Well, you'd better stay awful still, or the good Professor is liable to have an 'accident?'"
Cinematic camera on Rival1 to Villain1
Rival1 turns to Villain1
Rival1 plays animation melee
Rival1 says, "Fool! You were supposed to keep this one occupied!"
Villain1 turns to Rival1
Villain1 says, "Hey, we ain't pinched yet, just let me handle this!"
Rival1 says, "We did not pay for such incompetence. Do you not realize that he is more than fast enough to take that primitive firearm away from you before you even BEGIN to pull the trigger?"
Rival2 says, "<Enough of this, these morsels have all outlived their usefulness. Let's just kill them all and be done with it!>"
Rival1 turns to Rival2
Rival1 says, "<You're right, our presence has been exposed anyway, we may as well feast!>"
Camera on flash
flash says, "What in the world? This just keeps getting stranger and stranger!"
Camera on Villain1
Villain1 says, "Hey, what are you two yammerin' on about?"
Rival1 says, "Your death, human!"
Ally thanks hero Cutscene:
Camera on flash
Ally1 moves to flash
flash says, "Professor, are you alright?"
Ally1 says, "Yes...yes, I believe I'm uninjured. Thank you Flash, I don't know what they had planned for me, but these...creatures that had hired those thugs seemed positively inhuman!"
flash says, "I believe you may be exactly right Professor. Did they say anything to you that might give us a clue as to what was going on?"
Ally1 says, "No...but they did say that there was a truck waiting for me on the outskirts of town, perhaps you might find something useful inside?"
flash says, "Even better, I think I'll trail it to their destination and see if I can't unravel this mystery."
The crash occured after the main villain had been KOed, along with several of his minions, and at least one of the other villains. None of the rivals were KOed yet. It happened JUST as a thug_with_gun was KOed by one of the rivals.
The script.log: http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/gPBjSdm8DuFTl-DnwrmcnlN41V8zbI1w2rh7irXEBrJQs1qj6M_I-rxcFLa76nH_HQK9Y1yVQryYNh91cTmwZw/script.log
Okay, after a second play through, I did not get the same error, so I'm moving on and hoping it was a one time thing. I've got plenty other troubles to keep me busy. Let's start with mission 7, which is working perfectly, except for the last encounter. It won't start, and I've tested it six ways from Sunday. I've tried removing all of the dialog from the cutscenes in case I made a typo, I've double and triple checked the heading, and everything SEEMS copacetic to me. I can't tell what the trouble is.
Here is the encounter in question:

martian_man says, "If we can defeat the last of their guards, I may be able to overload it in the same manner I did their communications array. Their arrogance has not diminished in ten thousand years, and they fear nothing in this isolated region."

On an unrelated note, I'm trying to improve the 6th mission (Aquaman) as it seems a bit too hard. In it, you've got to fight your way past a number of guards to reach a big set of doors. After you pass the initial guards, there are still tons in front of the doors. While I could just cut their numbers down, I'd like to add another wrinkle to the mission. Is there a way that I can either A) Spawn a turret in that location that the player can later convert to his side, forcing it to attack the guards, or B) Similarly, set a turret guarding that area to explode, damaging the guards, also from another location. I can't think of any way to do that with EZScript, but I know that someone around here might.
From the script.log, it looks like you are using batman and flash as your heroes. The Alert Cutscene requires flash and martian_man, so I'd say you need to place martian_man on the map somewhere, add him to the encounter, or use him as one of your heroes.
I think it is possible to remotely change a turret from a villain to an ally using two encounters and a switch.
Encounter: Mean Turret
Type: Custom
Actions: switches exist, villains fight heroes
Villains: turret named turncoat
Next: Nice Turret
Marker: turret1
All Switches Turned Off Cutscene:
turncoat is killed
# put a marker called turret1_switch1 where you want the switch to appear
Encounter: Nice Turret
Type: Custom
Actions: allies fight villains, allies start immediately, allies remain after encounter ends
Allies: turret named fred
Marker: turret1
It's a bit of a kludge, but I think it will work.
Hmm...I've got all three heroes selected as the 3 required heroes for that mission. I don't understand how that is causing it... :huh:
Thanks for the ideas about the turret! Just to clarify, do I need to create two turret characters for this to work? I got all kinds of excited about this idea, and tried it out:

It looks like it can't kill the turrets, but I can't tell why.
For the previous mission, the log is showing only two heroes:
AI: SetupAI() - setting ai for hero_2 ('flash')
GROUP: 'team1' set to []
GROUP: 'hero_2' added to group 'team1'
GROUP: 'team1' set to ['hero_2']
AI: SetupAI() - setting ai for hero_1 ('batman')
GROUP: 'hero_1' added to group 'team1'
GROUP: 'team1' set to ['hero_2', 'hero_1']
The 'martian_man' character doesn't show up at all. Did he actually get imported into the mission? Do you have a hero_3 marker for him to spawn at?
For the turrets, you need to give them names as I did in the example. The kill command won't work otherwise.
Villains: turret_carrier named tur1
All Switched Off Cutscene:
tur1 is killed
I can't tell, unfortunately, as the screen is black. There is a hero3 marker for him to spawn at...should I just place all three of them on the map?
Ohh! You can actually name them within EZScript? Awesome! Alright, I'll rework those and try it.
:EDIT: Rrrr...still no luck. I couldn't tell if the turrets respawned or not, but they didn't do anything hostile or helpful...

The marker should be named hero_3 (this is an FFvTTR marker, not an EZ script marker).
The line:
turret_factory named tur1 is killed
should be:
tur1 is killed
You can use names directly in cutscenes. They are there so that you can identify exactly which character you want KO'd.
Okay M, thanks! I'll fix both of these things and test them out.
Alright, so I've made some pretty great strides today, solving several problems myself, and all in all, I'm feeling better about the whole thing, but I've still got a handful of bugs that I can't figure out. First off, I've got the forest mission working perfectly now, so that one is solid. The Aquaman mission is now acting just the way it should, with the bad turrets dying and the good turrets spawning, but we have two problems. First, the turrets are inactive both as villains and allies. They don't do anything, although the enemies DO attack them once they become allies. They have turret AI, of course, could that have something to do with it?. Secondly, the dead turrets remain behind for a while. That can be handled easily enough by teleporting them somewhere else, but can I teleport a corpse, so to speak?
On another note, I'm having issues with base screens (big surprise there, I'm sure), specifically with the camera. I start a base screen, and it works fine. Then for the briefing, I try and point the camera somewhere else, and it stays locked in the same place. Is there anything I can do about that? Here is one of the two base scripts that I'm having this issue with.

Narrator says, "The disparate threads begin to weave together, as the Marine Marvel, still following the strange and sonorous tones in his mind, smashes through the outer layers of defense, but finds that his efforts have not gone unnoticed. On his way back to Coast City, Green Lantern's ring picked up energy readings similar to those he detected on the moon from this hidden base and decided to investigate."

green_lantern says, "Yeah, well that's all fine and dandy, but will someone tell me what in the blue blazes is going on here?"
martian_mann says telepathically, "Yes, we have little time. My name is J'onn J'onzz, and I have come to warn your world."

martian_man says, "Invasion! I sense that you have already encountered the agents of the enemy...then I am too late."
aquaman_classic says, "While there's life, there's hope! Where do these creatures come from? Where do YOU come from?"
martian_man says, "It began many millenia ago, in the days before your people had so much as discovered fire. My homeworld, Mars, was in turmoil, the great prophet H'ronmeer was trying to unite our people and bring peace to the troubled planet."
martian_man says, "He had almost succeeded when a sect of our people called the S'ourns betrayed him, murdering him and almost destroying the peace he had created, but the rest of the Martians drew together, honoring his memory, and his dream was not lost."
martian_man says, "The S'ourns were banished to the vast emptiness of space, cast adrift far from the warmth of the sons, and a golden age began. My world was a paradise, it's people pursuing art and literature instead of war and destruction. Our civilization had achieved peace and prosperity and we were happy...until they returned."
martian_man says, "The S'ourns had escaped their exile and they returned, much changed by their ordeal. They were pale and hideous, twisted by being trapped so long with the evil of their own hearts. They invaded, and...fed upon my people."
martian_man says, "All Martians are telepathic, and there is no greater crime than to invade another's mind, but these creatures who had once been Martains now preyed upon their brethren. They had become a type of psychic vampire, draining the strength and knowledge of my people to increase their own."
martian_man says, "We had abandoned war centuries before, but we relearned the craft quickly. We fought bravely, but we were outmatched. I was a Manhunter, a lawkeeper, a defender of the people, but even the Manhunters could not stem the tide."
martian_man says, "I...I was there at the end. I led the last, desperate raid in the twilight hours of the war. We invaded their subterannean citadel, and released a powerful nerve gas that paralyzed them all. Our last gambit had been successful, but the cost...ohh, the cost!"
martian_man says, "I was...I am, the last Martian. I sealed their citadel, condeming them to an eternity of paralysis, but while I was in a hybernation cycle explorers from your planet released them. When I awoke I discovered what had happened and attempted to warn your world...to spare it the destruction that my own suffered."
batman says, "But you were captured by the military and imprisoned."
martian_man says, "Yes, they did not trust me...and now it is too late."
superman says, "No...now we know what they are, we know what we're fighting, we have a real chance!"
martian_man says, "You don't understand...it is beginning!"
Thirdly, every mission is working except for the final one (of course), which is actually doing fine except for the final encounter. It isn't starting. Here is the encounter in question:

There might be something with the turret AI not responding to custom AI commands. I'll try to look into it, but you may need to simply make a 'ally version' of the turret (GAME_OBJ_POLICE in the templates tab of FFEdit I think) to get it working smoothly. Spawn the villain version in the first encounter and the ally version in the second. Turrets don't have their own game object type do they?
For the briefing cutscene, you spelled camera wrong.
For the third part of your post, the program that reads in characters from the .dat files is looking for white_martian_brain and not finding it. Since you aren't using that in your script I'm not sure where it is coming from, but I'd guess it has something to do with 'white_martiab'. Did you use the term white_martian_brain anywhere in defining that character? A power or template perhaps?
If you renamed it recently, you could try running the ffx control centre to rebrand everything.
BEAUTIFUL! Thanks so much M! (I can't BELIEVE I mispelled camera...but oh well, at least you caught it for me...after I had stared at that stupid briefing cutscene for hours!) Pending a little touch up on the Aquaman mission, and me throwing SOMETHING together for a WW mission...the JLA campaign is DONE. I actually just finished it while testing it...I'm excited! :thumbup:
Alright, Batman is coming along pretty well, and I'm even finding a little energy to improve the early missions (the first ones I made, so not the best ever). I have run into a few errors though, but I've been able to solve all of them...except this one. I've got a briefing cutscene that isn't playing. Here is the cutscene itself:
Spoiler
#
# The briefing cutscene will play when the player
# selects the briefing button on the base screen.
#
# Notice the 'Starts when: Briefing' line.
# That must be there or it won't play as a briefing.

Encounter: Briefing
Type: Cutscene
Starts When: Briefing

Camera on robin
alfred says, "master dick, do be careful out there."
robin says, "Don't worry Alfred, I'll take care of Eddie and be back in time for dinner!"
alfred says, "I hope so, sir, but I shall resign myself to keeping the phesant warm throughout the night just in case the inevitable occurs."
robin says, "Have a little faith pal, it's just the Riddler, right?"
And here is the script.log, that doesn't have anything that I can see:

well, for one, if I'm following correctly, you're missing the words: "start cutscene".
But maybe I'm wrong. I only compared this entry to your earlier one. *shrugs*. ^_^
That would be it, yes. You're missing Start Cutscene:
Ugghhh.......I'm glad y'all are around, 'cause apparently I'm blind. :P
Okay, still testing and tweaking Batman (halfway done!), and I was wondering if someone could tell me a little bit about the Cinematic camera. When it works, it looks SOOO nice, but half the time when I call for Cinematic camera on batman, or whoever, it doesn't work. It seems almost never to work when I call for it on batman to robin, or the like. Any advice?
Once again, on another note I am having trouble with a custom encounter in the 4th mission. A bomb is located somewhere in the city (by the way, what do you need to name a marker in order for a bomb to spawn there? I've tried both object1 and item1 with no luck.) and its timer starts right away. That works fine, but after you disarm the bomb (the cs plays, and everything) it STILL explodes when its time limit runs out, although the timer itself disappears. Here is the relevant encounter:

Quoteby the way, what do you need to name a marker in order for a bomb to spawn there? I've tried both object1 and item1 with no luck.
I think you can use any marker on the map you want, just give the encounter a "Marker: marker_name" entry to tell the bomb encounter to start there... or am I misunderstanding the question?
Yeah Goggles, I should have been more specifc, I mean the bomb itself, the actual device. I've got encounter1_villain1, encounter1_object1, encounter1_item1, etc., but the bomb is still spawning wherever it pleases (which happens to be inside a building, rather than on top of it).
One more question, I know that captions can be generated by having the game scan the 'stories' directory, but can I just toss copies of all of my 'mission' files in that folder and get all three campaigns captioned that way? Will the game recognize line by line, or do I need to have Story: BLANK in each story?
I sent a patch to the email address I had for you (the yahoo one). It should correct an issue with the cinematic camera and with the disarm bomb encounter not preventing the explosion.
The bomb is spawned at <encounter_marker>_bomb1
Thanks so much M! I want to tell you, that this mod would not have been even remotely possible without you, first for being part of the FFX team, and second for all of the help you've given me here. :D
Alright, D-Day+2, and I'm trying to fit in all the pieces. First off, I'm having trouble with captions. I've run the captions generator, but my missions are still just scrolling text, no talking heads (and I've got animportrait entries for all of the pertinent characters). I'm I missing something here? I went through every mission, renamed the mission and base file's "Story: My Story" entries to be unique (01jlabase, 01jla, etc.), and copied and pasted them into my Stories folder. Then I ran the Captions Generator. Thoughts?
Also, having trouble with a new base scene. When I click on Mission Briefing, I get the DoEncCustom is broken message. Here is the encounter:
Spoiler
Encounter: Briefing
Type: Cutscene
Starts When: Briefing
Start Cutscene:
Camera on martian_man
martian_man says, "At this moment their machines are descending on your planet,
and the night has begun..."
flash says, "You're a little early baldy, it's only 10:00 A.M.!"
batman moves to comp1
Camera on batman
batman plays animation ranged
batman says, "No...he's right. Something is happening. The creatures had their
instruments monitoring communications across the world...and all of a sudden,
there is just one thing on all the airwaves."
superman moves to comp2
superman says, "What is it?"
batman says, "Invasion."
wonder_woman teleports to ww2
white_martian teleports to ww1
Camera on white_martian
white_martian says, "That's right human germ, invasion...and my squad is here to
make certain that you are the first casualties of your race!"
white_martian plays animation melee
white_martian says, "Kill them!"
white_martian turns to ww2
white_martian says, "Fools, did you not hear my order! By the moons! Where are
you?"
wonder_woman moves to white_martian
wonder_woman says, "Sleeping peacefully creature! Why don't you join them?"
wonder_woman plays animation melee
white_martian plays animation fall
Camera on green_lantern
green_lantern turns to wonder_woman
green_lantern says, "Thanks for the help gorgeous! Where'd you come from?"
Camera on wonder_woman
wonder_woman says, "Themyscira. I could not sit idly by and watch man's world be
destroyed."
Camera on flash
flash says, "Man's world? Themyscira?"
Camera on batman
batman says, "Figure it out later speedster, we don't have time to waste with
amateurs right now. We need to be focusing on a plan of attack."
Camera on wonder_woman
wonder_woman says, "Amateur! I have trained for centuries to take up this
mantle!"
green_lantern says, "Centuries?"
flash says, "Maybe she means dog-years?"
Camera on aquaman_classic
aquaman_classic says, "Worry about it later, batman's right. We need a plan!"
Cinematic camera on superman to batman
superman says, "The aliens are landing in Metropolis...I've got to get back
there!"
batman says, "Don't be stupid Superman, we need to pool our resources."
martian_man moves to comp3
martian_man says, "The batman is right...racing to fight them in the ground of
their choosing will be fruitless. We must hit them where they do not expect
it...disorganize them."
superman says, "While my city is torn to pieces! I can't...I have to help them!"
batman turns to superman
batman plays animation idle_1
batman turns to martian_man
batman says, "Why don't we do both?"
martian_man says, "Yes...that might work...and a team going to Metropolis would
keep the S'ourns from discovering our plans...Some of you must come with me. If
we destroy the parasites' communications node, we will throw their entire
invasion into chaos."
batman says, "And Superman can lead a team to Metropolis to try and defend the
city."
martian_man says, "It might work...it must work..."
As you can see, I'm also getting a weird spacing thing when I paste this mission into the forums. There isn't anything like this evident in notepad itself.

I dont remember if the caption generator actually updates the dat files or just the text file (I think its just the text file). You might try generating the language files... that may be the issue.
Thanks Goggles, but I've checked my captions text, and there aren't any new lines in it. I'll try it again today and double check.

For the captions generator, you should see it printing out a list of the stories you have in your story directory on the screen. Otherwise, check the log.
Also, it looks like you cut off the actual error message in your script.log part 2 message.
No, I believe that is where it ended M. I was definitely not getting anything with the captions generator, I'll try it again and check the log.
:EDIT: Ohh, there was this, after a few dozen lines of blank space:
^
SyntaxError: invalid token
EZ script seems to be mangling the line with 10:00 AM in it.
flash says, "You're a little early baldy, it's only 10:00 A.M.!"
I thought I'd fixed that, but to work around it, just remove the colon ( : ) from the line
flash says, "You're a little early baldy, it's only 10 A.M.!"
Thanks M! Freaking colons! Ha, thanks to you, the DCUG has been released, and is in (mostly) working order. I do have one thing that I can't figure out (so far), and I was hoping someone might have some insight.
In the final JLA mission, everything works fine until the second to last encounter. That plays fine, but it is a custom with interrogation, and the villain gets KOed, despite the interrogation symbol above her head. Here is the pertinent part of the script:

I think the 'Invulnerability can End' action is canceling out the invulnerability granted by being interrogatable (so the villain is getting ko'd). I'll see if I can fix that.
Bizarre! It didn't do that when I tested it before compiling the captions, but maybe I just got lucky.
Howdy guys! I've got a quick (and hopefully simple) question for you. I'm working on a level where Aquaman storms an island held by mercenaries. The idea is to have a few different encounters, as well as roving patrols. What I'd like to know, is how can I set up a squad of soldiers so that they patrol the island?
An add-on for handling patrols is in the works.
M, you are undoubtedly, unequivocally, the man. :D
Okay, I'm trying to work out how to do something, and I could use a little advice. So, I've got the first Aquaman mission, where Aquaman is taking out teams of gunmen in various kinds of encounters until the boss shows up. When he shows up, I want a nice, epic fight, followed by a cutscene in which an ally talks to our hero, telling him the place is wired to blow. At this point, I want a race to the shore, while the villain is revived and attacks again. What I'm doing at the moment is a custom encoutner in which the ally is incapacitated until you remove the villains, and the villain can be interrogated. That should be fine, but how can I go about reviving this villain for the next encounter? The only thing I can think to do is just spawn him again, and wait until the body of the first one is likely to have disappeared with the screen blacked out. I remembered that naming trick M advised for the JLA mission with the turrets, but I'm not sure how to apply it.
You can use the same character in multiple encounters by giving them a name.
Encounter: One
Villains: my_villain named bob
Then you can use bob in a second encounter by specifying the name again
Encounter: Two
Villains: my_villain named bob
And you can revive bob in a cutscene
Alert Cutscene:
bob is revived
That's what I thought, M. Thanks for clarifying!

Alright, I'm still having trouble with the above, but I'm also having issues with the villain AI. I thought it was a minor thing that I had missed, but once I fixed that I'm still getting the same lack of action. Basically, the villains of the mission just don't do anything. They don't seem to have their AI turned on. Everything else seems to be working, other than the previously mentioned encounter that won't start.
I'm uploading the script.log to the DCUG Yahoo group.
Sorry, I missed this one somehow. It's better to add a reply than edit your post.
Anyway, you need to remove the last comma (,) after the list of actions.
So....forget what I said about not making piddly errors.... :huh:
Yeah M, I should have known better. I figured that was the case, since I edited the post. Anyway, any thoughts on the AI issue?
I suspect fixing the issue with the one encounter will fix the AI issues as well.
Well M....you were wrong...but mostly because you probably underestimated my stupidity. I'm not going to go into exactly WHY the Terror Marines weren't fighting...but let's just say it was so obvious it makes my head hurt. Anyway, everything seems to be working quite wonderfully now! Thanks M!
Okay, I've got three questions for you EZScript-ites:
1) Is there any way to set up a mission in EZScript where you would start out controlling one character, but after a certain amount of time, he would be replaced by another? I have a vague idea for a mission with Dr. Thirteen in the DCUG secret project, but he couldn't carry an entire mission by himself. If this isn't possible, don't worry about it.
2) I have a vague memory of a technique existing with EZScript that allowed you to give a character dialog, but only if they were included in the mission. How is that done?
3) Is there a way to make EZScript missions save-able?
Thanks for any help y'all can give me.
1) You could use the Allies Become Controllable action to add a character to the team, and then have a cutscene where dr_thirteen is destroyed to remove him.
2) There's a condition on the says command in cutscenes that might do what you want. Basically, you write out lines for specific characters and then a generic line for all other characters.
Hero says, if Hero is minute_man, "Let's go team!"
if Hero is mentor, "The miscreants must be apprehended."
"We're on our way."
3) EZ script missions should already work with saved games. Are you having any sort of problem?
Thanks for the response M! Ahh, that would probably work nicely for Dr. Thirteen. I should have thought about that.
That is PERFECT M, thanks!
Well, I haven't tested since I got your EZScript update the other day, but loading a save game in the campaign, the game loads fine, but all of the scripted stuff no longer works.
OK, can you get me a script.log from after you load a saved game?
Sure M, I'll try and do it this evening.
Okey doke, I still haven't gotten around to testing that save feature, I'll try and do that soon. In the meantime, I've been working on a new mission, and surprise surprise, I hit a snag! So, here's what I've got:

#---------------------------------------
There is an opening cutscene that starts Attack1, 2, and 3, but then each of them is supposed to trigger the start of a new encounter. None of them are triggering what should come next.
My error log is too big to post on the forum, but it can be downloaded here:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/bentongrey/files/
The action - item exists - is not hitting an end condition since you aren't doing anything with the item, or even spawning one. You don't need it in your encounters, so just take it out and they should work.
Items are intended to be things that can be picked up by heroes and villains and run off with (think 'capture the flag').
D'oh! Thanks M! I should have thought about that one a little harder. ;)
Howdy guys, I'm having a few errors on the level I'm working on, one of which is an unexplained COMPLETE invulnerability for characters with "random mutation." I've got to do some more testing on that one before I bother y'all with it though. In the meantime, maybe someone can help me figure out why I keep getting the message that I didn't include a generic dialog line when I seem to have just that. Here is an example:
Spoiler
Hero says, if Hero is blue_devil says, "Heck, I'm scarrier than these guys. Come on spooky, pick on someone your own size!"
if Hero is shinning_knight, "Have at thee beings of dark magic! Thou shalt not pray upon the weak this day!"
Hero says, "We're with you!"
I think I've got everything I need, but I get that message nonetheless.
The problem is here:
Hero says, "We're with you!"
should be:
"We're with you!"
(No 'Hero says,)
Ahh, thanks M! I got some wires crossed somewhere along the way there.
So, I finally got a few minutes to test this mission again, and I'm still getting the random invulnerable T-Rexes. In checking through the script.log I'm not seeing anything in the attribute initialization to explain this:

So, I finally got a few minutes to test this mission again, and I'm still getting the random invulnerable T-Rexes...
Could a 'random mutation' BE 'invulnerability'?
I believe it could be one of the grades of invulnerability, but I was hitting the rex with fairly high damage powers, and getting NOTHING. I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think I was even getting damage boxes.
Benton...Buddy...A certain map is still at the Yahoo group...Go get it!...And empty your PM inbox here, so I can PM you again...Sheesh! :lol:
Dana
Urgh! My inbox should be open now. I don't see the map in the group you linked me to...PM me again, maybe I got some wires crossed. :wacko:
The part of the mlogreader that watches for damage is throwing errors, so it is possible that's the issue. There might be a bug in the random mutation attribute.
Hmm...what do you suggest I do M? I'm just trying to make this interesting without adding in a dozen new minion types, and the random mutation attribute seems like the perfect answer. Also, I'm not quite getting the kind of mission I want here. What I'm really going for is a situation like in FF1, where there are portals opening up that will keep spitting out enemies until you close them. Any ideas on how to model that? What I've got right now is just the portals set up as objects which you have to sabotage, and they are guarded by a group of bad guys. I don't have any real sense of urgency to it, though, since they aren't actually spitting out reinforcements.

I know you can loop random encounters, or have them called multiple times. Could you somehow set a timer between looping (so there is a delay between them) and then end the random encounters once the player sabotages the portal?
That's the question Torch. That is indeed the question. The timer is easy enough to work, but how to end it...I don't know.

That's the question Torch. That is indeed the question. The timer is easy enough to work, but how to end it...I don't know.
I can test it out right now, but I'm thinking something with the 'starts when <encounter> at end'.
You can also key encounters to start when something else hasn't ended.
Starts when: not my_encounter at end
or even Starts When: my_encounter not at end
(you can also use 'or' and 'and')
Starts When: my_encounter at end or my_encounter2 at end
So...
Encounter: Portal1
Type: Sabotage
Next: None
Encounter: Spawn Stuff
Starts When: Portal1 not at End
Villains: spawns
Next: Spawn Stuff
As for the random mutation attribute... if it isn't working, I can't offer much help. Maybe TaskmasterX would know.
Thanks M! So, when would that one start? Obviously, it would start sometime during the other encounter, but how long would it take? It might not be good to have the thing spit out bad guys at the very beginning....then again, that might work okay if I don't have too many at the portal in the first place. Thanks M, I think you've given me just the layout I wanted!
I'll contact TMX and see if he can give me any help with that attribute, then. Thanks for the suggestion. :)
To expand on that... you need to have an encounter that starts the portal and the 'spawn'.
Encounter: Do Portal and Spawn
Type: None
Next: Portal1, Spawn Stuff
Both would start at the same time, so you'd get spawns immediately. However, you could put in a Wait encounter to delay the spawn
Encounter: Do Portal and Spawn
Type: None
Next: Portal1, Delayed Spawn
Encounter: Delayed Spawn
Type: Wait
Minimum Time: 30
Maximum Time: 35
Next: Spawn Stuff
So...in trying to keep busy I have started on the JSA/JLA crossover. I can't really focus to work on my thesis...but this, this is more accessible to pick up and put down as necessary. I've got the first mission written, but I'm having trouble with the first encounter. Everything else seems to be triggering fine. The problem seems to be the Alert Cutscene. It isn't playing for some reason, although the Start Cutscene is playing fine. This should be the very first thing that the player sees when he starts the mission:

I can only assume something weird is going on here. I think I may be able to solve it by adding in a Ally Thanks Hero cutscene, but we'll see.
The second problem is that the final encounter is not playing properly. I've got a whole bunch of villains showing up to play with my heroes, and the alert cutscene is working properly, but the start cutscene isn't playing. I don't see anything in the script.log that jumps out at me, but I'm including what I hope is the pertinent portion of it for those wiser than me.

As you can see, it isn't anything fancy, just an interrogation encounter. I'm baffled. I'll continue testing the other stuff, and hopefully someone can help me figure this out.
:EDIT: A quick update, JSA#1 is working and pretty much done.
Grr! Okay, so the last encounter is working fine now...EXCEPT that when you defeat the primary villain (Sonar), just as he SHOULD be getting the interrogation symbol, I'm getting a CTD! Neither FF.log, nor script.log have anything that points to something like this. Help!

Its been a while since i did any EZScript stuff so I'm just spitballing, but could it be an issue with you specifying Sonar as the villain during the interrogation cutscene? Since you have so many villains, what if Sonar is the first one killed. If the game has removed him, and then the cutscene is specifically targeting him, it seems to me that it might crash because that character doesn't exist anymore to be the target of the camera.
But like I say. Im rusty so its just a random guess.
According to my understanding Goggles, I don't think that is likely. EZScript, as far as I know, picks the first villain in a list and makes them the target of interrogations. Besides, in this instance I killed everyone else with the developer console to see if the thing was working right. I beat Sonar last, with in game powers.
So, I went a different way with the mission, and things seem to be working out. I've got a new question for any of those with EZScript experience. I'm facing the same problem I did when I was working on my last JLA missions. I want to offer the player a chance to chose his or her team, but if I do that, then the rest of the JSA/JLA won't be able to join them, as I have no way to figure out who they chose. I was thinking that there might be a way to handle this through the Simple Choice plugin, but I can't think of any good way to go about it. Does anyone have any ideas?
:EDIT: Hmm...what if...I spawn ALL of the characters, and then I do four simple choice encounters, in which the players say who they chose, and each one of those points to ANOTHER encounter that kills the spawned character that they say they have on the mission?
:EDIT2: No ideas?
Urg....so, one of the things I've been doing with my time is trying to improve the original 3 campaigns included in the DCUG. I specifically wanted to improve a certain exposition heavy cutscene in JLA. I tried to make it a bit more dynamic, and that grew into me creating an entire new mission. I can't get the darn thing to work, and I'm sick of beating my head against a wall. What follows is the mission file. Does anyone see any reason this shouldn't work? I want it to basically be one big cutscene. Is there an easier way to do this? It works until the third encounter, and that cs never plays.

Have you tried changing the offending encounter from an alert cutscene to a start custscene. I remember in the past I always had weird issues trying to do Dialogue and what not in an alert CS. So I always used the alert CS to set arrows and positions etc, but any dialogue story stuff I put in the start CS.
Haha, yeah, I actually just changed it from "Start" to "Alert" in a desperate attempt to get it to work. It's been a "Cutscene" type encounter, and the CS itself has been both Start and Alert. There is nothing in the script.log, by the way. I suppose what I'm really looking for is just a way to have this mission work like a long cutscene, get this information across, and keep it moderately entertaining.

I sent a patch to the email address I had for you (the yahoo one). It should correct an issue with the cinematic camera and with the disarm bomb encounter not preventing the explosion.
The bomb is spawned at <encounter_marker>_bomb1
I am facing the same problem as Benton with a "disarm bomb" encounter on my Legion mod's first mission. Where I can get this patch?
Thanks!
If it isn't in his newest patches, then I likely have it somewhere...but I don't remember what files they were.
I got EZ script campaign V1.1 and still have the " bomb problem". I believe the patch is the only way to fix it, please let me know if someone can send me the files.
Thanks!
I'll try and look this weekend John. If I haven't sent you SOMETHING by Sunday, PM me.
Thanks a lot, Benton!
I really want make this mod, but never will be able without help.
Once again, thanks!
I've got a question for those of you in the know; is there a way to UNrecruit someone through EZScript? In my JLA/JSA campaign, I want the player to be able to choose some JSAers occasionally, but I don't want them to be available in future arcs.
Here is my script from the DCU

Alright, this is telling me that your effect, "effect_portal_activate" is missing, which doesn't make any sense, since it is a built in effect. Check this directory: Data\art\library\fx\fx_levels\large_portal_object\large_portal_activate.nif and see if the file is there.

In my DCUG folder I have art/library/fx/ but no fx levels folder. There are 4 folders textures, ffx, generic and generic states.
Right, but it should be in your generic Data folder, the one you get from unpacking your art.dat file. If you haven't done that, that could be the problem. I'll upload that file and you can simply drop it into your DCUG directory, then the mission should work.
My bad, I should have told you I checked my Data\art\library\fx folder first and just have 2 folders, textures and generic in it. That's why I then went to the DCU folder.
Okey doke EoH, this could actually be behind some of your earlier weirdnesses. I suppose the simplest thing to do is for me simply to put all of that up for you to download. I'll do that now.

Hmm...curses. Nothing is obviously breaking down. Did you get get an interrogate icon on the civilians you rescued? Did a CS play when you clicked on them? I'm going to do some testing on my end, and we'll see what happens.
Yes I interrogated them and got the cut scene. However then I flew all around the map and nothing else happened. I even went to the top of a couple buildings that looked like they might be important.
Okey doke, I've fixed it, and now I'm troubleshooting a few of the later missions in that campaign. Expect a minor patch sometime today.
Apparently, the "Lose" result which was supposed to come into play if you let all the civilians die was causing a bunch of weirdness, so I simply removed it. Now you can still win the mission if you let everyone get killed...which sucks, but at least you CAN win it. Also, I'm fixing the ghosting issue on several of the villains for this campaign.
Ehh, I forgot all about this because of some real life things that came up, but I'll try and put a patch out soon-ish. I'm getting some weird errors in The Atom's campaign, but it seems to be playable despite that. I suppose I'll just patch what I can, and if anyone can solve the other issues, then bully for them. :P
Here is the script for the Bat5
