I see. In that case, no, there is no 3D blenders in the Epic GTA2 Map Editor 0.6.6 Beta.

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6) Beta
Ah, I forgot all about this and GTA2 for a while. I may get back into it in a while, when I have more time on my hands. I already got all excited just by reading the 'simple' edits you've been doing since my last post. It's great to see you're still working on this - it must be a hell of a lot of fun to see something built up from the ground by yourself turn out so well after this long a time. I'm downloading the new version now.
Hope to see more of it - loved the editor as it was - will love it more as it will be.
EDIT:
Noticed the warranty agreement has the verb form 'backupped' in it. I don't want to be a know-it-all, but the correct English phrase would be 'backed up'. I thought you might want to know. I'm already loving this editing again... ah... retro games are the best.
EDITII:
I found what may be a bug: when entering the Zone Editor, my whole screen goes black and I don't see the zones. Here's a screenshot. By playing around with it, I noticed I could add the Navigation Zones by using the menu. So there's a bit of a fail on my part. However, the map should still be rendered while in Zone Edit mode, right? I don't see anything here:

Can you send the bug report via the editor? By the looks, it looks like you are out of memory. Try if the bug reappears even if the editor is the only program on at that moment? If its still black, then try creating "lowmem.txt" file in the editor folder and see if it works.Shrooblord wrote:I found what may be a bug: when entering the Zone Editor, my whole screen goes black and I don't see the zones.

I probably should release the newer version, with slight changes... although, i have already forgotten what it changes and is it any buggier or not (last time i touched the code was 7 months ago).

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6.6) Beta
Cool. I remember mentioning a JPG saving issue to you on MSN or somewhere but at the time I thought it was related to not having enough free hard drive space/RAM. Next time I'll post in the forum.
Adding new objects just by drag and drop is still on my wish list.
Changing a vehicle to a respawning vehicle or moving many to new coordinates takes a lot of effort to do manually. There's a lot of vehicles in Water Slow Race that I want to change to safe respawning code but changing 10 of them was tedious and there's about 35 more to go. I'm sure it would still take longer to code the feature into your editor than for me to make the changes in a script editor but maybe someone else could make use of it after.

So basically you want a feature which would allow modifying the coordinates from functions IS_POINT_ONSCREEN() and IS_CAR_IN_BLOCK() ?Sektor wrote:Changing a vehicle to a respawning vehicle or moving many to new coordinates takes a lot of effort to do manually.

[mis]// Respawning FBI Car:
IF (IS_CAR_WRECKED(fbicar))
IF (NOT (DELAY(100)) ) // let explosion happen
IF (NOT (IS_POINT_ONSCREEN(184.5,149.5,2.0)) )

PUT_CAR_ON_TRAILER (fbicar, trailer)
ENDIF
// Spawnpoint is clear:
DELETE_ITEM (fbicar)
fbicar = CREATE_CAR (184.5,149.5) -1 000 EDSELFBI END // FBI Car
GIVE_WEAPON (fbicar, CAR_MACHINE_GUN, 99)
ENDIF
ENDIF
ENDIF[/mis]
That could be doable, i think... well its been long time since i coded the script editor, so i might be wrong, might take a lot of time.
I'll put it on my TODO list

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6.6) Beta
I am getting lots of empty crash reports.
Does anyone of you get a message "looks like the program has crashed..." at the first run? I think its the only possibility for such a bug. Although, it should not even happen according to the code.
The crash check uses the registry though, maybe some users cannot access the registry at the first run due to user limitations? Argh... knew it would make problems. Perhaps i revert to file check again. Files have problems too though... hopefully less of them.
Perhaps its best if i add a custom message for each and every crash send form, so users can explain what happened. (will be optional to write there ofc).

That's the approach Firefox used to take...and possibly still does? Mozilla Crash Reporter it was called. Happily it's been a long time since I used it.
Your map editor has been totally stable and fast on my laptop.
Please make the menu ticking work and have it saved in a settings file! An INI file with one line per menu item, loaded when the program first starts and saved when it exists would be fine. If each menu item has a unique name or 'key' then the INI property name can use that verbatim.

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6.6) Beta
Hm, everything's working fine here though every time i exit the editor it just crashes and has to be shut down the hard way.
And due to that every time i start up the editor it said it didnt exit properly and allows sending a crash report though i never really bothered with that outside of the first 1-2 times it happened.
Though i did once inconveniently managed to overwrite my main script while switching to the main script from a mission file and i think the prompt to save the changes didnt pop up, or perhaps it did but only when the mission was selected, and it simply put the mission file's text into the main script file upon selecting yes. Good thing there was a backup though... Or something along those lines of changing script files, which can happen if you're trying to see if mission stuff doesnt overlap with main script stuff. Perhaps there should be a function to display all items from all scripts or just a few selected ones?

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6.6) Beta
It does save some of the settings already. I dont (and wont) make it to save every click, because some of the settings are just temporary settings you probably change randomly depending on the map. You can always suggest me which settings it should save!BenMillard wrote:Please make the menu ticking work and have it saved in a settings file!

Which editor version you are using? Which OS you have? Does it crash even if you just open the editor and instantly close (without loading map or doing anything with it) ?CarThief wrote:Hm, everything's working fine here though every time i exit the editor it just crashes and has to be shut down the hard way.

You are right. I just tested. When you edit a map which has multiple scripts and change the script from menu, it does ask if you want to load it and lose changes made to it, but if you press "dont load", it still changes the script file path! So when you save the script next time, it will overwrite it to the currectly selected script (which is not the same script currently loaded). Thats what happened to you, i assume.CarThief wrote:Though i did once inconveniently managed to overwrite my main script while switching to the main script from a mission file and i think the prompt to save the changes didnt pop up, or perhaps it did but only when the mission was selected, and it simply put the mission file's text into the main script file upon selecting yes.

Looks like a bug! it should not change the script path when pressing "No" in that popup about losing changes. I will put this on top of my TODO list.
Thanks for reporting! (please answer to my other questions above too!).

Re: Epic GTA2 Map Editor (0.6.6.6) Beta
The editor will crash when exited via the X top-right at all times, when a map is loaded, when one isnt and even when it hasnt even loaded the main menu succesfully yet! This never had any negative effect on the data i manipulate with the editor though, and if i try to exit the editor and it asks if i want to save changes it wont crash till it is exiting. Though i dont think i've ever tried to save data that way, i ussually just say it to not safe anything.
Using a Windows Vista 32-bit, the editor version is i guess 0.6.6 with some code in brackets: [FC76C9EC].
Also seems to crash when using the exit command.
