Concerning Issues with Module System 1.171

[ƬHΣЅΣƱЅ]

Hello dear reader,

As I am currently trying to convert the old Assassin Hunt Native mod from '1.158' to '1.172'.

When I asked for it at 'The Guildhall' I was told to copy the code out of the Assasssin Hunt Module System to the Module System of 1.171 which seems legit and correct to me. Here is the link in case you want to read it again: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,368852.0.html

Now, as I am trying to set up the Module Systems I found that I could not even compile it!
After 3 hours of research I found this topic https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,343915.msg8224417.html#msg8224417 which reflects my problems nearly, but with the difference that changing the location of the module system 1.171 and the module folder to the desktop does not change my problems . What else could I do to solve this issue?

Additionally I would like, if you have a hint or two, how to convert this gamemode!

I would like to thank you already for the attention and for a replay!

As I am currently trying to convert the old Assassin Hunt Native mod from '1.158' to '1.172'.

1) Why? As in, what is your goal for this upgrade? Compatibility with newer version of engine? Get any bug fixes since 1.158 on modsys? Do you plan to use new OSP or operations that require the upgrade?
1.1) Do you use WSE?
1.2) Any special cases (modmerger, etc), or it is a simple vanilla compiler/modsys ?
1.3) SP or MP?
...

2) Depending on (1) this could be a simple case of replacing some files, to a more complicated case of checking a lot of code

Its MP  native compatible mod.

1. I want to host it again and play it with friends on my dedicated server. Currently it is outdated as it is a Native gamemode for 1.158
Therefore no OSP
1.1 I do not use WSE
1.2 It is on the one hand the normal modsys 1.171 and the Assassin Hunt modsys 1.166
1.3 It is MP

2. Do you have an clear idea on what to do?

2. Do you have an clear idea on what to do?

You need to setup new, clear 1.72 ModSys. Then carefully copy and paste all AH related code to exact same places inside 1.72 module. This is basic plan. 
Ofcourse there can occur some complications.

That is quite helpful. For that 'we' need to figure out how to solve my problem with the compiler

Post your whole compiler output in

What is Dektop?

 

[EmielRegis]

Leo is right. It looks like you made a typo in compiler output path.

Maybe this

'C:/Users/Evalotta/Dektop/Test/menus.txt'

should look like this

'C:/Users/Evalotta/DeSktop/Test/menus.txt'

 

[ƬHΣЅΣƱЅ]

Well, it turned to be that single mistake that obviously stopped the whole compiling. It worked fine after this which means that problem is solved. Thank you VERY much for helping me with the grammar mistake . Lastly I have a question towards the assassin hunt transition: Can I be sure that I can copy the passages from AH into the Vanilla code?-Some may not exist and it has to be the right placeas EmielRegis stated

 

[EmielRegis]

What do you mean by "passages"?

 

[ƬHΣЅΣƱЅ]

Lines. The sections of lines

 

[EmielRegis]

AH isn't that old. You should be ok if you copypaste its code to right places. Only thing that can possibly cause problems are network events. Invasion trash code in 1.72 kinda ruined them. If AH had some custom network events proper implementing them can be hard for you, as it needs more work than copypaste.

 

[ƬHΣЅΣƱЅ]

Alright. Seems I have gotten REALLY lucky. I messaged The_dragon, the developer of AH and asked him which files had to be edited. He was extremely kind and edited the mod so now it is updated! This also means that the whole problem is solved. Topic can be closed now. Nevertheless I have to thank you a lot for your detailed hints and informative help!
