Eagle Racer Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Ok, I'm working on a mod and I've been using TSL patcher to speed up editing UTI files, and it's been working great so far. A few typos here and there on my part... I've been running the program and generating the files I need to a place other than my game directory and it's worked just fine. Everything in the changes.ini file and file names are all correct, and my install directory has the dialog.tlk file in it. The install runs through fine, no errors, but when it hits a certain point and it's jumping back, but doesn't seem to be editing files thought it says it is, and skips the files it should be editing at that point in the code then after 3 occurrences of this it continues as normal. Here are excerpts from the changes.ini [settings] FileExists=1 ConfirmMessage=N/A LogLevel=3 InstallerMode=1 BackupFiles=1 PlaintextLog=0 LookupGameFolder=0 LookupGameNumber=2 SaveProcessedScripts=1 ...

Going in and checking the UTI's that it's hitting twice, they are showing up the way they are suppose to with the first set of edits being done. The 3 "039" are not being generated in the install destination at all. I have no clue what's wrong here. This file is a copy of another file I've used and it's worked perfectly, with name changes here for the different type of saber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth333 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 It's been a while since I've used it (almost 3 yrs now) but perhaps those entries were skipped because the files were already there? The patcher does not automatically replace existing files. There used to be a replace replace function in the past if I recall well. Something like: [install_folder0] Replace0=g_w_dblsty038.uti I was just checking the readme of the new version of the patcher and found the following paragraphs. it looks like it's a simple checkbox matter now (wow! thanks stoffe!) : The TSLPatcher normally modifies GFF format files in place, rather than overwrite them, if it finds that one of the files already exists within the user's override folder. If you want existing files to be overwritten by a fresh copy from tslpatchdata before they are modified, check the Replace check box. [...] If you wish to replace any existing files with the same name at the specified install location, check the Replace Existing... check box. Only do this if you can be reasonably certain it won't mess up the user's game or any other mods they have installed. If this box is not checked and the file already exists, a warning will be issued in the TSLPatcher progress log and the file will be skipped.

Eagle Racer Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 I've been installing into empty directories. Thanks for the reply though. I'll have to play with it some more and see if it does it again or not. It's very very strange... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
