MAINCFG Problems

[Donovansrb10]

When I started my wad modification, it had some errors and didn't show the custom cutscene for at the start of SRB2.

executing .\autoexec.cfg
WARNING: Game must be restarted to record statistics.

Here is the MAINCFG Coding:

You need to tell SRB2 which version your MAINCFG is for. Stick

SRB2 version = 200

at the top of your MAINCFG lump.

You're still going to have problems, though, because SRB2 doesn't know what "E1", "Z1" and "H1" are. It's expecting the ordinal number of the map.

If you used SOC edit for this, keep in mind it won't automatically put

SRB2 version = 200

at the top of the soc. You have to open the soc up in Notepad or Wordpad, and then go here: http://wiki.srb2.org/wiki/List_of_Extended_Map_Numbers That should give you the info you need. Good luck!

 

[Ezer'Arch]

SStage_Start = E1
SpStage_Start = Z1
RaceStage_Start = H1

I'd recommend you to use Integer numbers.

[SML]

Erm... I already provided the link...

 

[Donovansrb10]

Thanks, I'll try that and about SRB2 version = 200. I didn't see it on the wiki on the article "maincfg"...

The maps are my own maps that are already added. That was just a part of the MAINCFG. I will try extending the map numbers for the starting maps, although.

 

[SML]

In other words, use the extenxions provided in the wiki article instead of the exact map numbers.

When I added the SRB2 Version 200, it still has the 9 warnings and the introduction cutscene does not show.

You still need to add those level numbers, which can contribute to 1 or 2 warnings EACH. Second, there's no cutscene 2. Another warning. No clue about the intro, though.

EDIT: Make a new SOC with some level headers and a cutscene, then try it and see what happens. That might be your issue.

EDIT2: Do you have those graphics for the cutscene?

But that has nothing to do with the cutscene... (Edits level number with extended map number)

I know how to make level headers in SLumpEd. >_<

I do have the graphics for the cutscene. I made it myself using pictures from the srb2.srb.

 

[SML]

Get those level headers. THEN, answer me this: Did you use SOC edit for it?

 

[Ezer'Arch]

Erm... I already provided the link...

You had provided this link: http://wiki.srb2.org/wiki/Map_Number_Equivalents

 

[SML]

I fixed it before you posted :/

 

[Ezer'Arch]

Okay, thank you ^^

 

[Donovansrb10]

I finished the level header for b1, THERE:

Level 137
Act = 0
Countdown = 120
CutsceneNum = 4
ForceCharacter = -1
Hidden = 1
InterPic = LvlPicB1
LevelName = Rocky Carverns
LevelSelect = 0
MapCredits = Donovansrb10
MusicSlot = 92
NextLevel = 1002
NoPerfectBonus = 0
PreCutsceneNum = 3
SkyNum = 1
SpeedMusic = 1
SubTitle = Get to Spike in under 2 minutes!
TimeAttack = 0
TypeOfLevel = 4096
Weather = 0

MAPCREDITS... Something tells me quite a few things from ShufflarB2 were implemented into 2.0.4

 

[K.S.]

Do NOT bother putting MAPCREDITS in your level headers, it does not exist in 2.0.5.

Additionally, putting stuff like "Z1" in fields like "SPSTAGE_START" works just fine. There's extra code to handle such situations, no need to use the actual level number.

else if (!strcmp(word, "SPSTAGE_START"))
{
	// Support using the actual map name,
	// i.e., Level AB, Level FZ, etc.

	// Convert to map number
	if (word2[0] >= 'A' && word2[0] <= 'Z')
		value = M_MapNumber(word2[0], word2[1]);

	DEH_WriteUndoline(word, va("%d", spstage_end), UNDO_NONE);
	spstage_end = (short)value;
}

 

[SML]

Fail. That's Lua, not C++.

EDIT: Or whatever programming language SRB2 uses >.<

 

[K.S.]

Uh, that's copypasted straight from 2.0's source. Which is C.

 

[SML]

............ OOPS! I know lua too good... I got them confused...
