Melee port

#81 The license for Cody's school has been verified.

#82 I've been trying to run this on TGEA 1.8.1 & I get the access violation error after the datablocks are loaded ...
has anyone managed to get this to work on 1.8.1 ???

I appreciate any help

#83 It looks like this will port over fairly nicely with 1.8.2 I'm working on it now, compiles without errors. I had to crawl through with winMerge(GREAT tool if you've never used it). I'll have to do some testing tomorrow, but I should be able to zip up the files and post em.

PS: Thanks for this great resource and porting job ;) saved me hours and many cups of coffee!

#84 1.8.1 tek0.net/torque/meleeTGEA181.zip

#85 Well, it compiles fine and I don't get any console errors, but it's swinging very poorly, the animation stutters and hangs.

Any ideas?

#86 either corrupted animations or a system hardware problem, are all your drivers up to date? The animations are a bit on the slow side, but are pretty fluid for me.

#87 Interesting, the animations play ok in show tools, I'll double check drivers and things. Thanks for the response

#88 I've found out the hard way that just cause something works in showtool doesn't mean it's going to work in game. I think showtool was made with TGE, which means a lot of things are going to be different between it and TGEA. Showtool would be great if you were actually making your game a mod of showtool.

#89 Pistoles, could you post your Shapebase.cpp? I have have two errors compiling for 1.8.2:



/Users/GilMorales/Desktop/Torque/TGEA-Mac-1-8-2/GameExamples/Stronghold Dev/buildFiles/Xcode/../../../../engine/source/T3D/shapeBase.cpp:948: error: no matching function for call to 'TSShapeInstance::reSkin(NetStringHandle&)'
note: candidates are: void TSShapeInstance::reSkin(String, String)

/Users/GilMorales/Desktop/Torque/TGEA-Mac-1-8-2/GameExamples/Stronghold Dev/buildFiles/Xcode/../../../../engine/source/T3D/shapeBase.cpp:3160: error: no matching function for call to 'TSShapeInstance::reSkin(NetStringHandle&)'
../../../../engine/source/ts/tsShapeInstance.h:315: note: candidates are: void TSShapeInstance::reSkin(String, String)

Gracias


EDIT: Doh! I missed a couple things in my merge, all works great now in 1.8.2!

#90 hey everyone, in case anyone is running into this problem this may proved useful..

I was previously getting a compile error.

error C2665: 'Con::executef' : none of the 20 overloads could convert all the argument types	c:TorqueTGEA_1_8_1enginesourceT3DshapeImage.cpp	1986

This is the line of code causing the problem

Con::executef(image.dataBlock, "onImageIntersect",5 ,scriptThis(),buff1,buff2,buff3);

I eventually figured this out.

according to the Quick Guide porting Tips
the link -> www.torquepowered.com/community/forums/viewthread/74079

In it the last thing it points out is:

Quote:13) Con::executef() only takes char variables now.
eg. Con::executef( getDataBlock(), 2, name, scriptThis()); changes to Con::executef( getDataBlock(), name, scriptThis());

So I did exactly that, changing the code from this.

Con::executef(image.dataBlock, "onImageIntersect",5 ,scriptThis(),buff1,buff2,buff3);

to this

Con::executef(image.dataBlock, "onImageIntersect",scriptThis(),buff1,buff2,buff3);

after removing the 5 the error was gone.

hope this helps.

#91 Is there a melee port for T3D yet?

#92 I'm getting no compile errors in source code, however in the torsion output once I equip the sword that Thompson provided & press fire it mounts fine but it dosen't swing.

here's the error:

scriptsAndAssets/server/scripts/sword.cs (112): Unable to find function WeaponImage::onFireHandToHand

Is it because this function is conflicting with another function like it?
not sure how to fix this yet, any suggestions would be great :)

#93 hey. im not getting any compile errors nor errors in game however for some reason when i load the game my character is looking up and is continually spinning. any pointers? thanks in advance

edit: im using TGEA 1.8.2

#94 well i got it all working now along with AIGuard. It does crash from time to time but i'm sure i just missed something as i did with this.

#95 Used this and some other resources to get this working in T3D 1.0 without issue.

#96 T3D Port www.torquepowered.com/community/resources/view/19509

#97 TGEA 1.8.2 Thanks for this cool resource I was given the TGEA 1.8.1 version by a member of the community and I took the liberty of updating it for TGEA 1.8.2 - (it compiles but I haven't tested because of time constraints.

-Cheers

Okay I fixed the issue in the Player.cpp change

This
S32 seq = mDataBlock->mShape->findSequence("h1stun"); // MRR Changed

To this
S32 seq = mShapeInstance->getShape()->findSequence("h1stun");


(Line 1505)

and This

F32 y;
if (mArmThreadPlayOnce)

To this
F32 y = move->yaw;
if (mArmThreadPlayOnce)

Files are working after changes above, here is Video as proof.

#98 @Dennis

Your code crashes on "*** Phase 2: Download Ghost Objects", which is the exact same place my port crashes in 1.8.2. I've yet to figure this out myself, just thought I would let you know.

#99 I am not sure what you mean as it compiles successfully on this side. Does the compile complete on your machine?

#100 yeah it compiles fine, no warnings or errors, however as it is loading mission, it crashes on the phase 2: download ghost objects, however does not give an error to a specific reason for crashing.
