ps...dont worry they are only warnings.


But When I start the game and go into loading screen it stops at loading setting data.It CTD with no warnings.This leads me to believe it is a memory problem.I have a decent PC so how come I am getting this.Also played around with settings to see if it would solve it.So i go into rgl_log.text to see what is happening.

(disclaimer Items used come from Naruto mod by sundiata with permission a long time ago)
Also The rgl_log file was too long so i had to compress it a lil bit so it can fit (there are actually alot more WARNING unable to find material for mesh...)

Starting new log file.

Loading Module...
Loading item kinds...

The Problem is not the unable to map game script code because you can see how it stops at loading items.
So I go into OpenBrf and take a look at the supposed missing textures and such.They are pretty much all there in OpenBrf all in the module folder.I thought that maybe I have to add the remaining items that have meshes and textures etc not used yet but that hasnt solved it.Like I said there are no missing textures they are all in the modules folder.Its a memory problem but caused by all these supposed failed textures.I have no Idea

If you add new meshes, you also have to add material and texture entries into the brf files, not only the texture to the texture folder. Did you do this? Also watch out for that you have spelled all brf files correctly in module.ini.

Yes im sure all the material and texture files are there because when i look up one of the supposed missing items in open brf with the find in module function all the .dds and meshes.materials show up in the search

 

[Eärendil Ardamírë]

Did you use the 'find error' function in openbrf already? It often shows misstakes done in sorting stuff etc.

 

[SupaNinjaMan]

There's a pretty strict load order to these things in module.ini as well.

Textures, then Materials, then Models.

If they're all in the same brf it's not a big deal, but if you seperate them you need to make sure anything that gets referenced in a brf is contained inside a brf higher in load order.

For example, in cool_models.brf, I have a model with the material dope_mat.
If that material is in a separate brf, say cool_materials.brf, it needs to appear higher than cool_models.
Similarly, if dope_mat refers to a texture that's in a different brf, it needs to appear higher.
So in this example the load order would need to read like
load_mod_resource = textures.brf
load_mod_resource = cool_materials.brf
load_mod_resource = cool_models.brf

Hey guys So what I did was I combined everysingle brf file into one and that solved someof the errors and I fixed some more that didn't have any materials and textures assigned to them.After fixing them I have come to realise the reason its crashing is not because of the brf files but because of items.As you can see it crashes when its on load_itemkinds1.Its weird how no error shows up on module system tho.I will get to you guys when I fix it.


EDIT: Alright yeah it was because of the items not because of the brf.Thank you guys for answering I have fixed it now.

Ok, you combined everything into one brf file. While this might be intuitive a good idea it's not working out. There is a maximum size for a brf file and above it the game crashes. Not sure anymore what the maximum is but just don't put everything into one brf file

Its alright now its not crashing anymore.I guess the brf file wasnt big enough to crash it


EDIT: oh yeah it does crash but It only crashes in openbrf fiouf.So I guess I will just wing it and hopefully never have to use openbrf ever again
