Help with people in bar!!!

Mon Mar 08, 2004 8:46 am by Black Eagle

Hi!
I'm making a mod and added the Osiris as Order base in the Unknown System (The empty without planets). Everything works so far, but if I try to place people in the bar, everytime I go to the bar the game crashes and I get back to Windows! I don't know why this happens! I can do everything on the base (buy and sell equipment, ships and commodities etc.) Do I have to add rumors to the NPCs, which they can tell me? This is my mbases.ini entry:

Chips has a excellent thread posted with all the info you need and if you read down in this forum, he has already delt with this issue too.

It sounds like NOTHING to do with mbases.ini file - and EVERYTHING to do with the fact that you might not have a bar.ini file, also check your base.ini file as well, and check that its pointing towards the correct folder containing your bar.ini file, and that its named correctly.

Okay Thanks for your help!
I deleted some of the NPCs and then it suddenly works. I think a spelling mistake I hadn't found before! So Thanks again!

Tue Mar 09, 2004 10:43 am by Chips

First one to me

- never heard of that causing a crash. How many did you get rid of out of curiosity? Also - if you added some more, does it cause crashes again? (curious, i have a thread dedicated to crashes found during systems modding, which includes bases

)

I deleted five NPCs and then it works! Then I added six new ones and it also works! So I think it was a spelling mistake in one of the old NPC entrys!

npc = Ew0501_order_001_m
npc = Ew0501_order_002_m
npc = Ew0501_order_003_m
npc = Ew0501_order_004_m
npc = Ew0501_order_005_m
npc = Ew0501_order_006_m
npc = Ew0501_order_007_m
npc = Ew0501_order_008_m
npc = Ew0501_order_009_m
npc = Ew0501_order_010_m
npc = Ew0501_order_011_m
npc = Ew0501_order_012_f
npc = Ew0501_order_013_m
npc = Ew0501_order_014_m
npc = Ew0501_order_015_m
npc = Ew0501_order_016_m
npc = Ew0501_order_017_f
npc = Ew0501_order_018_m

Your spelling mistake to make it crash would have been between that and the chars actually in the file. IE - fi you had a bogus one here that didn't exist in the file (Ew0501_donkey_kong_junior_female ) and no actual NPC then you should crash............

- but i didn't see any such error...

Sat Mar 13, 2004 10:09 am by Black Eagle

I finally looked in the old file and found the mistake. I had one NPC which doesn't appeared in the list above (As you mentioned). In the threat this NPC was also missing. So you coldn't find the mistake. Anyway, thanks for your help!!!
