Itemkinds1.txt only 635???

[Leona]

Hi to all,

yesterday i found a strange thing with my itemkinds1.txt. I was reaching line
635 - everything is ok. But its not possible to create another line, because
the game starts no more, it says: invalid end of itemkinds or error with match
0 ..... The lines are correct inserted and fully playable in other mods, so that is
not the problem.

I have never seen such problem bevor, some of my itemkinds-txts are in
line 920  - Do someone know about "limited itemkinds1.txt" or so? How could
i expand my txt-file, that the game starts correctly? Could someone please be
so kind to help me?

I'm no modder, but I think it has something to do with a fake item being used to 'end' the items files. Look for an 'INVALID ITEM' at the end of NE's itemkinds1.txt.

no, as i wrote, the items are 100% ok, i am using they in all modules, i am playing. As an example :
it is no problem, to put a s.a. horse in line 625 - the game starts, the horse is buyable in the shop a little
bit later. If i place exactly the same horse in 636, the game starts not - i get a fault message like i have written.

Does anyone have the same problem? Or do you have more than 635 items without failures?
I can't imagine, that the itemkinds1.txt generally could be tough reduced to a total amount of xxx-items......

I am lost              ..... Any other ideas? Maybe Jinnai or The Mercenary could check it or help????

I doubt they would have or even could have changed the maximum amount of items. I'll bet its something simple, like the count actually being different to the number of items defined.

Damn ! Your absolute right! I have checked the txt and there is a failure - but not in my additions.

The Problem is: the native expansion module himself comes with a total amount of 489 items - but this
number is not correct, because they are only 486 items in the list, before i edit the file. That's bad, because
you see, you will check this too late in Line 635 , if i change it now to the right number, my savegame will
no longer be compatible. So i edit nothing here and play the mod as it is now. Its no problem, i am deep in
love with that beautiful mod 

But it should be repaired in future, so the error will  be adjusted for the other downloaders of this module.
So maybe the Jinnai or The Mercanery could maybe be so kind to check and correct this for the others?

Thanks and bye, Leona

itemsfile version 2
497

As far as i know you need to increase that number with the number of lines you've added to the file. So if you've added one new item it should look like this:

itemsfile version 2
498

I hope this will work (it does in other .txt's but then i'm not sure about item_kinds1 ). HF with the modding.
