Tarr Chronicles and Dark Horizon Modding

[kev11106]

U dman.

Btw, if you get errors in the missions please enable -luadebug (Either by modifying a shortcut or using the "Run" bit of the start menu). -luadebug will make the game log all errors that LUA has which are normally hidden from sight and show them at the end as an error log. The downside to it is that every time you use it you may get an error log appearing at the end as i never had time to go through all the missions and crush the LUA Errors that are reported(Which is why its not enabled by default. Once im sure that you can play both Tarr Chronicles and Dark Horizon without getting a single LUA Error message then it will be enabled by default).

One is by the station, the other you should be able to see from your starting point if you rotate your view around.

[kev11106]

Ok, next hurdle...Found both transports a few days ago but when I come out of the cut scene to dogfight, I'm already exploding and dead. I've even tried "god mode" and it still happens. Any ideas?

[Stucuk]

Once you have the two transports are your engines at the lowest setting? (So you shouldn't be moving)P.S Please use -luadebug and post any lua errors.

[kev11106]

No, I'm at full speed and already turning, trying to anticipate being hit while the cutscene is playing. Also hasn't given me a lua report. I'll keep trying.

[Stucuk]

Its best to always have your engines off when a cutscene is about to happen so your ship doesn't bash into things. The transports should not be near where the cutscene happens(Well they shouldn't be in fireing range).

[kev11106]

They're not. I'm running even before I come out of the cutscene to try to avoid the fire but it doesn't work. When I run, I'm always in an open area for the 2 seconds I survive. And this is multiple tries later. God mode or no, makes no difference.

Wondering if this could be a part of it...<a href=""">[url]http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/sho[/url] ... -a-mission

[Stucuk]

That crash has nothing to do with it. Could you send me your current profile. I have never experienced your bug on that level (I did use to get the Crash one on that level before i fixed it years ago).

I meant your profile from your Data directory(\data\profiles\). So that i could try using your profile (and saves) to see if i get the same bug.

[kev11106]

PM me with an address that I can send it to(too big to attach)

[Stucuk]

If you put it in a Zip/Rar it should be under 2MB. I only need your profile (Not the default one, which is in a folder called "Default").

[kev11106]

Tried to send you the zipped profile file. It's still 2mb. How can we make it lighter?

[Stucuk]

You could use one of the free file hosts. MediaFire doesn't seem to require an account.

[kev11106]

Did you get the file?

[Stucuk]

Yes, i haven't had time to look at it yet.

[Stucuk]

Do the bug is in the mission where you have to find the two transports? Just wondering as the latest save in the profile you sent is a later mission.Btw attached is a modified version of the Tarr.exe . When you give it "-logdmg" as a parameter it will create a log called damagelog.txt which will log all damage the player takes(Well what caused damage). If your still having the same problem then the log may show whats destroying you.
