MotS -> JK COG port... fun... =P
2003-06-02, 3:53 PM #1
Ok, I'm using SavageX's Jeron Fusion Cutter cogs and etc from his Leeza's Destiny Guns (for MP) mod, and I am trying to convert it to JK. (Notice, I have only taken files from the LHGUNS.GOO, not any default MotS stuff) I have been able to convert the pickup cog and it appears to work. The weapon cog is a different story. No matter how much I comment out, it doesn't do anything! Apparantly there's something in the COG that's keeping JK from parsing it, but I can't find anything:

Code: 
# Jedi Knight Cog Script
#
# WEAP_FUSION.COG
#
# This is the 4 barrel cannon from Dark Forces.
#
# [SavageX]
#
# This Cog is Not supported by LucasArts Entertainment Co.

I commented all the stuff out to try to make it work... no luck. Also, I see some stuff I'm gonna have to change in the end (ie the stuff that would make the gun not fire if it got "wet" like in the last two MotS levels), but all I want to do right now is get it to print the debug messages.

NOTE: I used the jkString stuff because Print didn't work... and when jkString didn't work I wss too lazy to change it back! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Again: No debug text is printed at all in-game. Cogwriter reports no errors, and when I press the 5 key, nothing happens at all... it doesn't even switch away from the current weapon, a sign that the cog isn't parsing correctly.

I'm sure I HAVE the weapon, because I am using the red5 cheat to ensure I have it.

So, any help for me?

You got problems, boy, you got problems. You have to leave the cog as is, the problem is in your templates. You don't have them correctly inputed. Plus, you can't use this because you most likely didn't ask SavageX for use of this, and you also have to remove MotS verbs. You aren't allowed to do both, you can use it for inpiration, but not the origanal for changes into something for you.

I did in fact ask SavageX, but he hasn't replied yet. And if he says no, I won't release this. I'd just find someone else who made something like this. (Although I admit I have NEVER seen another Jeron Fusion Cannon, I could make the code and templates by myself if needed, and I could get someone to make me a model, but I'd much rather use the work of an established master. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif])

And I DID copy the appropriate templates, but that isn't the case. I'm trying to get this cog to actually parse first. Once it parses, I think I can fix any remaining problems fine.

I see the MotS verbs... what I did with the pickup cog is I held it side by side with a JK pickup cog. When I saw a MotS verb, I replaced it with the appropriate JK code.

All I'm saying is I want this thing to parse first. Don't look at the commented out code... just at the uncommented code, and what may be causing it to not parse.

It suddenly dawned on me to check the debug.log...

Code: 
sithCogYACC.c(406): PARSER syntax error: line 7.


I don't notice anything wrong in the symbols section though...

I'll try commenting out some symbols and see what happens. -_-

[Edit: Still no luck. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.]

[Edit: !!! I think I found it! See how the Output string outputs to player? player is undefined!!!]

Go find on of SaberMaster's posts, get Parsec. Boy, you also need to try it out all at once. Templates and all. Plus, is this for a mod or a level? You need some help, you have to try cogs ingame to see if they work or not, its not just correct or not.

Ir's for a mod, which is why it's a weapon cog. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

I will seek out this Parsec you speak about... [Edit: Found it, v1.7.0... but DOS? Hehe I love DOS [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]]

BTW, I'm just trying to get it to parse first. I do intend to "try it out all at once".. when I get it to parse, I will fix the rest and try it all out... I don't quite get what you're saying...

Also, I HAVE been trying the cog ingame, that's why I know the cog isn't parsing in JK, and why I know the text messages aren't showing. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/rolleyes.gif]

Well, two replies is better than nothing... thanks for your help, Mr. Pilot [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

[Edit: Bah... Parsec didn't find anything... I'm gonna rip this cog apart now... the gloves are off! ^_^]

Ok... I stripped the code down to it's bare minimum... I removed all the comments (and commented out code) but it STILL doesn't display ANY text when I select it! What am I doing wrong?

Code:

Dude, thats just Fling your self over man. Take the origanal code, and edit out what parsec says that shouldn't be there.

Parsec's giving you nothing? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/rolleyes.gif] I read through the code very carefully, and noticed 2 things I didn't before. bin is undefined in th top code, you uncomment everything, and add to the symbols 'int bin=(weaponnumber) local' plus 'int ammobin=12 local' and it should work.

Actually, I had noticed it too, and I put it into the code shortly after I made this thread... no difference. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

After all, any code that uses the bin or ammobin vars is commented out anyways...

Thanks anyway. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif] Much appreiciated.

[Edit: Whoops! I just realized what you meant three posts back... you wanted me to take the original MotS code and run it through Parsec, fixing stuff when it finds it? I don't think it'll work,since Parsec seems to miss whatever is causing it not to work in the first place, but I'll try it if SavageX can't fix it...]

Parsec can only catch syntax errors and some logical errors, it cannot find errors outside of the cog or errors that appear when the script is interpreted by JK and run.

Make sure that your bin is defined correctly, none of the messages in your stripped-down cog will be called without certain bin flags. So post your bin if it's still not working.

Yey, SavageX got the cog to work ^_^.

SaberMaster, I suppose you mean that without the bin and ammobin vars, the cog may not parse? I'll have to remember that in the future, thanks. (That could've been why it wasn't parsing.)

Thanks for the replys, guys.

No, I meant the inventory bins defined in the items.dat. JK doesn't care if there's a bin variable in the cog.

But I'm curious, what did Savage do to fix it?
