success?
good job

Thank you again Stormcaller for being my tester. Curiosity will force me to figure out why the arzs get a slightly different size, but for now, I hope to rest from this project.

WareBare · August 17, 2016, 5:03am

didnt get to test it yet, but is the arzBaller created arz a little smaller? could be because you left out the 2 ints per record. not much data but enough if its really just a little different.

jiaco · August 17, 2016, 5:06am

Yeah, I should not have singled out Stormcaller there as you and durruti also helped, but last night and this morning, Stormcaller and I have been in constant steam chat working out the final details. He also had the idea that if my data blocks are not sorted the same as the dev’s packer, then compression sizes could vary and that might be the issue, as some arzs repack a little smaller and others a little bigger.

WareBare · August 17, 2016, 5:27am

k, so I tried to pack my mod, it crashed, thought, ok maybe its because of the additional folder, Ill grab the core source and pack that… crash again.

after that I went back to the initial release and grabbed the gimmest source and had another crash, made a screene of it

however unpacking the grimmest arz from the initial release and packing the source that comes out of it works.

Stormcaller · August 17, 2016, 5:29am

The way I use it is get the arz, unpack the arz with unpack, and pack the arz with changes. Were you trying it with the unpack from a different program/asset manager?

jiaco · August 17, 2016, 5:39am

Not able to see the image, will grab your source and give it a go.

well, your mod has tons of fields that were not in database.arz or SurvivalMode.arz…I guess I need to implement the guessfieldtype() function again.

Here is what I can grab from the bottom of the stderr stream: (look at the very bottom stuff, wtf is that?)

from the stasher mod, so Im guessing chinese

jiaco · August 17, 2016, 5:52am

Great, I will have to handle that too then.

what happens with the last command if you remove the resources folder first?

WareBare · August 17, 2016, 5:57am

well, I can remove the descriptions. It wont change it for everyone else, but you dont have to worry about that on my behalf

and Im not using custom templates, its just the core ones. But it looks a lot like it crashes for empty fields.
Both were sound fields, Im gonna check their values.
Edit: yeah empty, but nothing special about it.

what happens with the last command if you remove the resources folder first?

same crash

jiaco · August 17, 2016, 9:47am

When I stopped parsing the path using /records/ to find the record names, I switched to using the base path given to the program in argument #1. I assume that if the first argument is not able to be trimmed off the absolute path to the dbr (text) to get the record name, then it crashes. Will look into another way to do this.

For the templates issue, I could not bring myself to parse the .tpl files. First of all, they look like ASN.1 format and second of all, I am not sure how to obtain the templates for the dlc. (Well, in writing this, I have an idea, but whatever, see point #1 ASN.1 == not fun to parse).

So I make this object:
QMap<QString,QMap<QString,quint16>> templates;
By parsing all records in database.arz and SurvivorMode.dlc to get the field type for each field name with the outer QMap getting keyed by the templateName field. So any record using a field defined in the template (.tpl) but never used in the game, is not in the BSO stored inside arzBaller.exe. (BSO:binary serialized object, meaning this index (double-QMap) is made by me and then baked into the exe).

Since you say you did not use new templates, and I am not getting these errors with other files, then I guess you used fields defined in the template but never used in the game files.

I can either use my old code that tries to guess the field type, parse all the mod arzs when I build my double-QMap or just suck it up and parse the .tpl files…

Going to think on this for a bit. So ideas/opinions are welcome.

I will also figure out how to blindly pass on blobs of non-ascii text as well, I am using toUtf8() but I have no idea if Chinese and other languages are Utf8 or what. I was perfectly happy with 7bit ascii, but I guess it is not up to me.

Off topic, I just learned today that in French, an adult cat can be masculine or feminine and all baby cats (kittens) are masculine.

does that mean there is no word for a female cat baby?

in topic, I extracted the SurvivalMode.arz, edited records/game/gameengine.dbr

experienceEquation,155+(monsterLevel*5),

this is the only edit I made.
I repacked it, and I still gain only 0 exp. On previous versions, I could gain exp. When I unpack this arz, I still get the formula with the “155+”, so its packed, somehow.

other changes I made in the arz(I only tried radical stuff like completely renaming folders and breaking links), seem to work

arz: https://a.uguu.se/vuytdT3LAbUH_SurvivalMode.arz

I will be trying stuff like changing file encodings, restarting my computer etc. maybe somewhere the game caches something.

edit: I tried changing skills and such. they work. this is unique to the experienceEquation. odd.

I assume that if the first argument is not able to be trimmed off the absolute path to the dbr (text) to get the record name, then it crashes. Will look into another way to do this.

For the templates issue, I could not bring myself to parse the .tpl files. First of all, they look like ASN.1 format and second of all, I am not sure how to obtain the templates for the dlc. (Well, in writing this, I have an idea, but whatever, see point #1 ASN.1 == not fun to parse).

So I make this object:
QMap<QString,QMap<QString,quint16>> templates;
By parsing all records in database.arz and SurvivorMode.dlc to get the field type for each field name with the outer QMap getting keyed by the templateName field. So any record using a field defined in the template (.tpl) but never used in the game, is not in the BSO stored inside arzBaller.exe. (BSO:binary serialized object, meaning this index (double-QMap) is made by me and then baked into the exe).

Since you say you did not use new templates, and I am not getting these errors with other files, then I guess you used fields defined in the template but never used in the game files.

I can either use my old code that tries to guess the field type, parse all the mod arzs when I build my double-QMap or just suck it up and parse the .tpl files…

Going to think on this for a bit. So ideas/opinions are welcome.

I will also figure out how to blindly pass on blobs of non-ascii text as well, I am using toUtf8() but I have no idea if Chinese and other languages are Utf8 or what. I was perfectly happy with 7bit ascii, but I guess it is not up to me.

Off topic, I just learned today that in French, an adult cat can be masculine or feminine and all baby cats (kittens) are masculine.

its also your mod Im gonna type down the error since you cant see the pic

MISSING FIELD TYPE INFORMATION FOR petAttackSound from template monster
database/records/creatures/enemies/grimmest_heros/zombie_h11.dbr
INPUT 24 has petAttackSound,,

and than the same for …/zombie_h12.dbr

sometimes it gets this one more output done before it crashes

MISSING FIELD TYPE INFORMATION FOR ActorName from template gameadjustment 
database/records/game/balancingadjustment_challengemode_enemies01.dbr
INPUT 1 has ActorName,,

again, only your mod source trying to pack now. I think we can worry about the wall of errors on mine later.
I just find it odd its fine extracting the arz and packing the resulting source works fine (smaller arz but it does it), but using the source you made via assetmanager or editor crashes

and thats why Im using the grimmest source right now, you know how you did it - hopefully

Yeah, my mod, ha ha ha…I knew this was going to be a pain in the ass, but I am going to try to finish it before my vacations are over, cause doing this after work (instead of mindlessly killing stuff) will be even more painful.

Thanks for the reports. I think I know what I need to do next. There are various issues, but each of them have a solution.

Well, I need help testing this again…and some ideas on how to handle stuff.

First off, here is v0.5

now handles guessing at field types and FileDescription should be passing through, I checked and missing values is still a bit of a mystery. I am really not sure how the dev’s toolset writes nothing, or what it writes to represent nothing.

Source v0.5

Binary

And as a quick test I used v0.5 to compile the dga sources I had extracted with v0.4 and it seems to work:

In any case, my Guess code does not have a chance in hell to correctly identify a boolean type. They will be “converted” to int, which should break in game. so for now, all fields that are guessed are output to stderr. I will implement a log file soon. But I would really like to find a better way to deal with this. (See Field.cpp for the GuessFieldType function)

In addition, if I cannot use /records/ to snarf the record name from the file path, then I have to use argument #1 as a base path, I am not able to figure out how else to do it. So for me I have a folder called dga next to arzBaller.exe (inside dga are two subfolders: mod_wanez and records) and call:


arzBaller.exe dga_beta/beta_Wanez/database/beta_Wanez.arz dga
arzBaller.exe dga beta_Wanez.arz

then move the new beta_Wanez.arz to replace the origin and ran around the map and took the above screen.

Is the one I posted fixed, that is the experienceEquation thing?
I also found a bug with a buff aura failing to be applied. But the causes may be the same. Do you know the cause, or should I post the full details?

I could not make headway on the XP issue as the field seems to be there on pack and unpack/repack…Combined with the fact that this was not available for modding in CustomMaps upon release of the toolkit, makes me wonder if it is not the game, just ignoring the modification of this field.

Point me to the aura record in question and I will look at that.

Stormcaller · August 18, 2016, 3:58am

well, 0.3 worked, and BULLHÆD did it with asset manager as well. but BULLHÆD also had faction bugs iirc, so its possible his mod, too, was corrupt.

I send you more details on the aura bug on steam.
