Warband Script Enhancer 2 (v1.1.2.7)

[Amadour]

Good evening/ morning !
I have a questiion concerning modules, and compatibilities with WSE2.
I have been using it with pretty much all of my mods as it offers not only much better battle performances but also a ton of customisability in the option menu which is honestly highly appreciated.
I happened to have discovered a rather old and now abandonned mod called "Blood And Steel" released in 2013 on Nexus. It is the only downloadable source for this mod currently and there are no other ways to get it. The author has long abandoned the mod and no one has decided to pick it up for a potential update.
I am not sure if it is related to a hard coded source within the mod, but this one has a very major issue: to put it simply, it cannot read the game's graphics, i am met with a very glitchy and violently flickering screen that would possibly cause a seizure whenever i am attempting to play it, be it in sandbox campaign or in custom battle. (See image as reference, i can provide more if more proofs are needed). For this example, i created a character and jumped into the sandbox campaign. The only things that can appear on my screen are the game's settings, and the TAB option such as the option of abandoning a battle.
The game plays in the back, but i cannot see anything other than a glitchy mess on my screen ... it makes the module unplayable with WSE2.
It launches fine, no crashes, the menu works perfectly fine but in terms of usability with the script, it ends there, the mod is unplayable ...
I'd like some help because the mod is a ton of fun on the vanilla warband launcher, but it lacks important features offered by the newly updared warscript enhancer, and bigger battles tend to lead to a crash especially during sieges. I see no post on reddit or anywhere else regarding this issue for this mod. Is there anything i can modify/ delete in order for the mod to be playable with WSE2? I know very little about modding and i am in no capacity in re-making it from the ground up, so i come here seeking possible help. Any guidance would be highly appreciated.

WSE2 only supports mods with Native shaders iirc, you would need to adapt the shader files (pretty complicated) and as far as I recall "Blood and Steel" changed a lot there. So it would be plenty of work for you which is not easily done.

 

[Amadour]

ah that is unfortunate ... i'd be willing to ask for someone to look into the files, or even to find a way myself. Either ways it really is a shame. Perhaps some day it'll receive a fix.
But now it does make sense why the graphics would glitch out like crazy.

Hey @K700, I tried to use the trigger ti_on_agent_fill_collision_capsule but I can't manage to accomplish what I want.
I just want to overwrite the capsule to fit to my custom skeleton...

Spoiler: module_mission_templates

common_agents_collision = (
  ti_on_agent_fill_collision_capsule, 0, 0, [], [
    (store_trigger_param_1, ":agent_no"),
    (store_trigger_param_2, ":radius"),
    (agent_get_troop_id, ":troop_no", ":agent_no"),
    (troop_get_type, ":race", ":troop_no"),

    (try_begin),
      (eq, ":race", tf_dragon),
      (agent_get_bone_position, pos0, ":agent_no", 22, 1),   # left front foot
      (agent_get_bone_position, pos1, ":agent_no", 13, 1),   # head
      (val_mul, ":radius", 20),
    (try_end),

    (set_trigger_result, ":radius"),
  ])

If I change pos0 and pos1 to anything else, the collision capsule stills at the same place.

I have no problems with the trigger ti_on_agent_fill_movement_capsule, the capsule moves along the given positions.

Spoiler: module_mission_templates

common_agents_movement = (
  ti_on_agent_fill_movement_capsule, 0, 0, [], [
    (store_trigger_param_1, ":agent_no"),
    (store_trigger_param_2, ":radius"),
    (agent_get_troop_id, ":troop_no", ":agent_no"),
    (troop_get_type, ":race", ":troop_no"),

    (try_begin),
      (eq, ":race", tf_dragon),
      #high values to make sure there is no collision with ground troops
      (position_move_z, pos0, 2225),
      (position_move_z, pos1, 2500),
      (val_mul, ":radius", 30),
    (try_end),

    (set_trigger_result, ":radius"),
  ])

If I change pos0 and pos1 to anything else, the collision capsule stills at the same place.

agent_get_bone_position with global position does not take into account the scale of the agent

Party have invalid parent party. This is probably an error in the module scripts

Hi! What does itp_has_upper_stab do? It doesn't seem to apply thrust damage instead of swing. I've checked both in Vanilla and WSE2

 

[K700]

if (canDoAttackType(hand, at_overswing))
    damage[at_overswing] = (wieldedItem.isValid() && wieldedItem.getItemKind()->m_properties & itp_has_upper_stab) ? thrustDamage : swingDamage;

 

[johnathancooperwt]

So I understood it right, and it should apply the thrust damage then, right?
It doesn't do anything, unfortunately
I've used a seax with 1 swing damage and 20 thrust damage for my test and every time I used the overhead attack, it always dealt 0 damage because the swing damage was applied

This flag is not used to calculate damage, but to choose the direction of attack, if bAiDecideDirectionAccordingToDamage=true.

 

[johnathancooperwt]

Interesting, so it only does half of what it was made for, it seems, if the direction is chosen according to the damage but then the wrong damage value is applied on hit?
Is there a way to make overhead thrusts use thrust damage then?

 

[K700]

isThrust = attack.m_type == at_thrust;
bool hasUpperStab = false;

if (!item.isValid())
{
    if (srcAgent)
        damage = (srcAgent->getTroop()->getAttribute(atr_str) * 0.3f + 2.0f) * attack.m_power;
    else
        damage = 10.0f;
}
else
{
    if (item.getItemKind()->m_capabilities & itcf_overswing_spear)
    {
        hasUpperStab = true;

        if (attack.m_type == at_overswing)
            isThrust = true;
    }

    damage = (float)item.getDamage(isThrust);
}

use itcf_overswing_spear for overhead thrust damage

 

[johnathancooperwt]

So it's only the twohanded animation and not the onehanded one activated by itcf_overswing_musket? Looks like an oversight to me.
Could you add itcf_overswing_musket to it? Otherwise, it doesn't work with other weapons that use itcf_overswing_musket without itcf_overswing_spear

 

[K700]

Yes, I can make a item flag to order

 

[johnathancooperwt]

Sounds good, I'll add it to my list of features I want to order

When the game starts calculating career experience for all heroes every day, in the original it takes/freezes for 5 seconds, but in WSE2 for some reason the process takes (game freezes) for about a minute, if not less. The process of calculating career experience starts in the morning.

Why did you remove edit mode? Please restore it. I want to add a lot of objects.
It would be better to get rid of the existing editor when the new editor is completed. I'm curious as to why the existing editor was removed.
