Post subject:  Failing to open files that are there.
So, I'm trying to run one module of my 8+ module set that me and a friend are building, and I just started this module today. I did the spriting, the coding, etc. for the weapons and actors that I wanted to use, and I added it to the main Index.ini, which looks like this:
Image

The error reads that line 5 is incorrect, or that the file couldn't be found..

Image

Although it's right there.
Even if I void line 5, it says the same thing for line 6, and so on.
It looks almost the exact same as the other Index's I've written up..

Image

What am I doin' wrong here?

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Your index.ini file could be corrupt, the one it's opening could be structured wrong, there are a host of things going wrong, however, if it says the file isnt there, you should try making a new folder, copying the files that cannot be found into that folder, and then cutting them out again. Sometimes mods don't load because of errors like this. If it persists, your Index.ini might be corrupt, which is a pain to fix...

This could also be due to the fact that you've installed cortex command in your program files under Vista. Lotsa weird stuff happens with that. If Geti's advice does not work, try installing Cortex to a different folder, the easiest being your desktop.

Goddamnit.

I created a whole new module, and re-did the files that were marked as missing. I created new '.ini's, and rewrote the index. I also moved the Data Realms folder into my desktop.
Still, no luck..
:(

I'ma try disabling all the other non-necessary modules. Maybe there's a conflict or something.

This might be because you have several 'Index.ini' files.
Try renaming the two included in the main one to something else and see if it works.

Forgot to add the sound index into the new module. :|

But, another error appears..

Now that isn't something that should normally happen...

Code:
AddEffect = Attachable
   CopyOf = PMC Head Base
   PresetName = PMC Head A
   SpriteFile = ContentFile
      FilePath = ModernPMC.rte/Actors/Merc/HeadA.bmp
   AddAttachable = Attachable
      ParentOffset = Vector
         X = -1
         Y = -6
   FrameCount = 1
   SpriteOffset = Vector
      X = -5
      Y = -7


Whee. From lines 356.

One more question.

Is it possible to change the sound, and the 'decals' an object makes when it gets shot? I'm making a plastic material, more specifically, Perspex, and I want to change the impact holes and sounds from the metal ones to custom ones.

Yes. Change the Entry/Exit Wounds. They're emitters, and the sound they make when something gets shot is under "BurstSound".

Most of the basegame ones are defined in Base.rte/Effects/Wounds/Wounds.ini.

Post subject:  Re: Failing to open files that are there.
Would these Entry/Exit wound lines be listed in the materials or the actual object's file? Or, would I have to add them in manually?

Nevermind, found them. I'ma just figure out how to work the BurstSound, but that should be easy enough. Thanks again, guys!
