Logging problem

(Zygnus) #1

I have compiled a mod of my own an puted all of the dlls in mp_bin.pk3 as well as in the root of my mod folder. When I start the game with +set fs_game mymod +set sv_pure 0 I can see my mod when I look under the Mods category in the main game menu. I guess that if I want to activate it I have to click on the name of the mod and it should start or does my mod starts running when I have added the +set fs_game mymod?

I’ve tried to change names and stuff like that in the ui to see if it is my mod that is running but I can’t see any difference.

I added +set g_log “mymod.log” +set logfile 1 to see if I could see something in the log files but nowhere in the logs I can see mymod being mentioned.

When I try to host a game while starting ET with the commands above I get ERROR: G_Script_ScriptParse(), Error (line 2207) : unknown action: set.

I have installed ET with the 2.60 patch, is this iterferring with the version of the source code for ET available?

Have you updated your code to reflect the changes in the 2.60 SDK?

I’ve downloaded the ET SDK I’m using from a link on splashdamage. Do I need an update of the SDK to reflect the changes in 2.60 or is there something I can change manually in the codebase I have now?

you should begin again on ET 2.60 SDK, you can also try using patch and diff utils

Where can I find ET SDK that is up to date with ver. 2.60? Does someone have a link to where I can download it?

Ok, now I downloaded the 2.60 SDK from Worthplaying and compiled it. It seems to work when I do the above startup and try to host a game. Now I going do add the chnges to the code and see if it still works or if there is something wrong with how I add code to the game project. I want to create a server side mod.

Tnx for the help!

if you want to do serverside only mod then just drop qagame into your mod directory , do not create any pk3 files and modify only game project

(Zygnus) #8

I did just that and I got my serverside mod to work perfectly. Now is just a matter of implementing the rest of the code :slight_smile:

A quick question, if I start ET with +set fs_game mymod do I have to go into the mods meny in the game an click on mymod to start it or do the +set fs_game mymod start the mod automatically?

Txn again for all the help!

+set fs_game does this for you, if you wrote the modname right.
