am i doing something wrong the pic is in my scenario thewayoftheguild.cmg in 506 what am i doing wrong ?

 

EDIT: is it okay to be using text edit for scripting ? cause if it's not I cant do scripting

It'd help if you explained to us why you think something's wrong. What problem is occuring? Are you unable to place the item in the scenario using the editor, or does it not show up during gameplay when you do place it?

 

One problem could be that your scenario's title is too long; I think bad things happen if the short title is more than a certain number of characters.

begindefineitem 441;

ill change the title to twotg

Code:

 it_floor_which_icon = 506;it_inventory_icon = 506; 

Replace with

Code:

 it_floor_which_icon = 0;it_inventory_icon = 1;

should it be like this ?

begindefineitem 445;

Also replace next lines.

 

begindefineitem 506; // newly defined item

...

import = 445; // base item to modify

 

"Text Edit" is not suitable for script programming, because of smart quote.

it_variety = 13; // Armor

it_weapon_skill_used = 0; // Strength

it_ability_str_4 = 20;

 

[EDIT]

thank you i am sure this would work but my twog file has gone haywire or something the ResEdit graphic is a jumble of coler i loaded the file to see what everything looked like and the items area says draconian armor but the graphic for it is a question mark and when i entered the game to see there it messed he whole town up it said stuff like failed to load door script and i did pick up item and it says (error blades of avernum failed to recognize the items in this scenario you will not see this message until you enter a new town) something like that I'm not sure but it's all going wrong i do not now what to do

[Notus]

Sorry,

Please revise it as my previous post.

i am sorry but what do you mean ?

oh i have another qustion in another topic i asked about Skribbane herb i beleve i might now have the code for it would this work ?

Code:

 begindefineitem 446;	clear;	it_name = "Skribbane herb";	it_full_name = "Skribbane herb";	it_variety = 7; // Potion	it_bonus = 10;	it_weapon_skill_used = 0; // Strength	it_charges = 5;	it_floor_which_icon = 0;	it_inventory_icon = 0;	it_value = 15;	it_identified = 1; 

[Kelandon]

Hawk King, please use punctuation and capital letters.

 

That is a start for skribbane code, but that won't do it by itself. You need to script it with a special ability -- the script for addictive drugs in the Codex is probably the place to start.

I edited the code just after I post it, because I found bugs on it. So, please revise it on your side too. You can find the edited code on my previous post.

hey at least I'm not writing like this r u going to play geneforeg 3 becos im gonna u should 2 see u l8ter

but sure i will put in more of an effort.

EDIT: i can't get to my file i can't edit twotg. every time i try it says

Quote:

Scenario data file error: Edited item out of range (0..499) in line 14.

Major Error 8: There was an error when loading your scenario's custom data script. you won't be able to edit this scenario until the problems in the script are corrected

[Kelandon]

Don't touch item 506. You don't get that many items. Your item numbers have to be below 499 -- so you can neither import nor define anything above 500.

[Notus]

As Kelandon said,

begindefineitem 506; // newly defined item

should be changed to

begindefineitem 445; // newly defined item

 

Next line also should be changed.

import = 445; // base item to modify

 

Umm.. what is your base item?

For example, to set it to based on Blessed Plate male(43), change this line to,

import = 43; // base item to modify
