Author	Topic: Buggy script maker !!
JohnCroft Member Posts: 251 From:Germany Registered: Nov 2000	posted 11-29-2000 09:58 PM Hi, when I try to use the script maker after changing something within the script there´s a problem: >script script.txt works fine >del ..\*.dat works fine >copy script.dat ..\ >copy german.dat ..\ both give me "no such file or directory" !! So after using the batch file I need to copy the two generated files, "script.dat" and "german.dat" into the directory "../" manually, or the game will crashing immediately upon start. Any bugfixes so far available? IP: Logged

Also, you may not be copying all the files....when you run script script.txt, it generates 3 new files. You need to copy the Strings.h file into your root directory as well. IP: Logged

That was the output generated by German Script.bat from C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\Script which is installed by the level editor itself! I only used this batch file as stated in the manual!

If everything is working properly, you should have 3 new files there - script.dat, english.dat and strings.h. These would then need to be copied into the root directory over the existing files.

Reb@Eidos unregistered	posted 12-06-2000 12:08 PM Sorry for not responding sooner but I was trying to get some info from the UK...hard with the time differences and all. Still don't know what was released on the 'localized' versions but this might help if you haven't figured it out already.....(and I'm waiting to find out why you can't run the batch file from the DOS window) The script.bat file can be edited. It needs to have the directory name added..that is why you got 'Ungültiges Verzeichnis' message. Add the right path name then save it. You can also add the script script.txt command and do everything in one click it you want! After you edit the script.txt, etc. click on the script.bat icon in your script directory and it should make the changes then transfer and delete the necessary files. (i.e. it should transfer the newly generated script.dat and, in your case, german.dat into the trle root, and then delete them plus the strings.h from your script directory.) Hope this helps...
