I'm still just getting this:
Starting Mapper...
Mapper initialization...
FalloutDatFile::Init - Cannot open file.
OpenDataFile - Unable to open DAT file<C:\Users\alan\Desktop\New Folder\fopatch.dat>.
FileManager::LoadDataFile - Load packed file<C:\Users\alan\Desktop\New Folder\fopatch.dat> fail.
Sprite manager initialization...
SpriteManager::Init - Shader 2d contours compilation fail, error<ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND>. Used old style contours.
Load sprite egg fail.
Mapper initialization fail.
New Folder is where my FOnline .Dats are located. what is this fopatch.dat? I don't have this in the path, I have:
# Path to the client folder.
ClientPath=C:\Users\alan\Desktop\New Folder\
@surf: I did send path now, I figured i'd give it a try, but same results. Actually, I think it was one of the mapper competitions, when I heard about it (it had started maybe the day before) I posted this thread then, which was months ago.... Only Wichura bothered to post but I got stuck and the thread died quickly after.
Of course, my reasoning right now has sort of changed, its a mixture of boredom and hating the fact that I cannot beta test the game anymore in it's current state until wipe. (Although it's ultimately boredom I enjoy creating ... "Maps" on alot of singleplayer games. I figure I'll try a multiplayer one now. I generally just gather everything I can, for instance, In morrowind I like'd decorating towns after I take them over with my armies. (I found a bug where you can control people for eternity so HAHAHA
) or creating Large camps with torches and lamps, and others.
Then thee's Halo maps, which is obviously not just about decorating, I tended to make "urbanized" maps with whatever I could get ahold of before my "money" ran out. Then I'd test with some freinds... Although since i don't have xbox live i could never test it on a large scale.
So I've got "some" experience, although I hardly doubt I'll create anything good from the mapper for such a game as this anytime soon. I've heard the mapper is very very complicated to learn....
