Title: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: glsix on June 16, 2009, 03:23:29 PM
I've start learning EZscript and as a test, I write a little story.
Everything is running like it should except that the first encounter is not playing. The game skip directly to the second one. Could someone look at story and tell me where the problem is ?
Spoiler

Hero says, "But Pinstripe can't be giving them orders from his jail cell. Someone must be doing it for him..."
Ally says, "If that's the case, we have no idea who it might be. We thought for sure that Pinstripe's criminal organization would crumble after the Freedom Force had him put in jail."
Hero says, "That's what we hoped too. Seems we were wrong."

I find a way around the problem by adding another cutscene at the start of the story.
Now, it look like this:

That second version is fully fonctionnal by the way.

Howdy Glsix, glad you're trying your hand at EZScript.  I don't have time at the moment, but I'll try and give you a hand with this tonight or tomorrow.

As I wanted more missions to play (after playing some of the nice mods available), I figured that I could create some with EZscript. I'm also curious to see how far you can go with the story system.

Thank you for taking the time to look at it.

You can do just about anything with EZScript.  It is one of the greatest things to happen to FF :D.  As far as this mission is concerend, I'm not seeing anything that jumps out at me.  Would you be so kind as to run this mission as you had it originally and then post your script.log?

Okay, THIS seems to be your problem:

Unfortunately I'm not good enough with EZScript to interpret exactly what it means.  If I had to guess, I would say that it seems to have something to do with the map.  I'd check and make sure you've got all the markers you need on the map you're using.  That includes Hero1-Hero4 and others.  Other than that, I'm not sure.

Post by: JLAfan2001 on June 20, 2009, 09:23:43 PM
Could it possibly have something to do with a character that EZscript can't find? Either a buit in mesh or a hero file.
Title: Re: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: glsix on June 21, 2009, 12:15:08 AM
I'll check the story with an other map tomorrow.
This story is not using any custom character and I've played it with MinuteMan. I'll check what custom_43 is supposed to be.
Title: Re: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: BentonGrey on June 21, 2009, 12:59:04 AM
There might be something about it in your FF.log.
Title: Re: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: glsix on June 21, 2009, 10:06:56 AM
There's no mention of custom_template_43 in FF.log nor in FFedit template tab.
What I find strange is that in the first version, the encounter is not playing at all while in the second (where I added an additional cutscene before it), it works without problems.

The same happened for the second story I'm writing and I solved it in the same way.

PS: Changing map and adding a defined spawn point asn't solved the issue.
Title: Re: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: BentonGrey on June 21, 2009, 03:49:17 PM
Yes, it is a very bizarre issue, there is no doubt about it.  I'm inclined to think that it may be a bug with EZScript.  What version of FFX are  you using?  Do you have the newest updates for EZScript?  I really wish M25 was around.  I'm afraid I'm out of my depth here. 
Title: Re: EZscript story - first encounter not playing
Post by: glsix on June 21, 2009, 05:45:25 PM
I'm using FFX 3.3 and have installed the updates available on the EZscript wiki.
That problem is more of an annoyance as I can work past it.
Maybe someone could test the story on his system to see if it happens for them ?
Here is a link to the story for those wanting to help with the issue
