Umm...
OK. Looked at the new source up in the svn, and it says the current version is 0.82 (with some nifty new stuff added).
...but I've not ever actually successfully compiled a windows .dll before. The day I spent beating on it (a ways back) was a miserable failure.
Can someone point me at a set of instructions? |

Sorry about that. I've updated the download on its nwvault page. |

Hey Max,
Does the nwnx_areas plugin in your branch REQUIRE resman?
I tried compiling it, loading it up, and got the following error.
| Quote: |
* An error occured while loading extension areas (126: The specified module could not be found. )
|
Can you provide a compiled version of these dlls? |

It shouldn't depend on resman.
If possible, it grabs the resource path for resman from the nwnx.ini but that's about it.
I've uploaded my latests nwnx_areas.dll here:

Cool,
I had just finished coding a system into my module, which would allow for a 'spectral realm'
Basically, you die.... respawn in a duplicate area of the area u are in, but it is empty of everything, and has different color scheme etc..
After defeating some enemies, the player can then, re-enter their corpse, to resurrect.
The error I was getting, obviously put a kink in my plans. Lol
I think it might have been due to the method I was compiling it.
I usually compile using Visual c++ 6.0
But the only thing I seem to be able to open your project/plugins with, is Visual Studio 2010, and it has never been good for nwnx plugins.
I had to comment out the MadCHook API declaration inside it, to get it to compile... it kept saying that it does not allow for overloaded external c++ functions or something....
Its possible this is why it wouldnt load up... Lol
What do you guys use to build your projects? So I can upgrade. |

I use Visual Studio 2008 Express. Works fine if you can do without ATL and MFC and you can scroll with your mouse wheel!
I haven't seen 2010 but with 2008 there's only 2 settings that need to be changed after using the dll wizard:
- Project Settings->General->Character Set: "Use Multi-Byte Character Set"
Otherwise the nwnx core won't compile
- Project Settings->C/C++->Code Generation->Runtime Library: "Multi-threaded (/MT)"
Multi Threaded DLL requires (default) requires whoever wants to use the dll to have a some other dlls - which come with visual studio and probably some SDK.
BTW, Zebranky has started a thread about converting the windows trunk repository to VS2008. |

|
|
Hey Max. First off - thanks so much for getting this over to Windows. It's going to have a big impact on our subrace systems and random NPC modification.
To randomize our NPCs a little bit more, I've been trying to use the NWNXFuncs_SetSoundSetID function and it doesn't appear to be working. Just throw this code in a trigger and run across it with a PC and the NWNXFuncs_SetSoundSetID always seems to set the sound ID to 0. Any idea why that could be happening? I'm using version 0.82.
| Code: |
#include "nwnx_funcs"
void main()
{
object oNPC = GetEnteringObject();
SendMessageToPC(oNPC, "Your current voice ID is "+IntToString(NWNXFuncs_GetSoundSetID(oNPC)));
NWNXFuncs_SetSoundSetID(oNPC, 241); //Change to Aarin Gend voiceset
SendMessageToPC(oNPC, "Your new voice ID is "+IntToString(NWNXFuncs_GetSoundSetID(oNPC)));
}

Not sure, but I think you might have made a mistake with the SetEventScript
In the previous version I was using, it was
SetAreaEventScript or something like that, and it worked.
However, I just downloaded, the latest NSS, script, put replaced my old nss script for nwnx_funcs and updated the module, but now it wont set the Area Script.
The nss and the module came from the same rar file on vault, but the module/dll had the same file size and creation date as the old module I was using....
| Quote: |
- StrReq: "SETEVENT" Params: "0 spectral_hb"
o SetEvent: |0|0 spectral_hb|
o SetEvent: strspn [1], strlen [13]
o Error (SetEvent): New event script name contains invalid characters or is too long.
|
I mean, it worked before, with the SetAreaEventScript
I dont know why the string length would be considered too long for it now.
Unless it is not liking the underscore?
Found this in the most recent source, is it possible that the nwvault version is using this commented out source instead? Im kinda at a loss at how to build this project. Lol I cant seem to download VS C++ 2008, because my BITs part of windows doesnt wana download windows updates for some reason, and the project doesnt wana build in VS C++ 2010 because of the following error.
| Quote: |
error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function 'CreateRemoteThreadEx' not allowed
|
| Code: |
/*
int iEvent;
sscanf(Params, "%dŽ%s", &iEvent, Params);
_log(3, "o SetEvent: |%i|%s|\n", iEvent, Params);
// check new event string for validity
_log(3, "o SetEvent: strspn [%i], strlen [%i]\n", strspn(Params, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz012345679_"), strlen(Params));
if ((strlen(Params) < 0 || strlen(Params)>16) ||
(strspn(Params, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz012345679_") != strlen(Params)))
{
_log(2, "o Error (SetEvent): New event script name contains invalid characters or is too long.\n");
sprintf(Params, "-1");
return 0;
}

Allright, I've changed the nwvault page to get the files from sourceforge. That way I don't have to wait for whatever their file approval (or whatever it is) to kick in.
The archive on the vault was still the old one; I just uploaded a new archive 3 times but on the download side it was trying to give me an old version.

If you need any web hosting on the off chance.... I have several Webhost reseller accounts. Lol
Nothing like managing your own website/webspace.
I will give the sourceforge compiled dll a go.
Still cant get vs 2008 to install on my machine...
Its because MS make me use this stupid Web Installer, and it keeps crashing.
I managed to get VS 2010 C++ Express, which behaves just like 2006 does, except it gives the bad message about the overloaded c linkage with the hookapi call? |

Downloading the ISO now... didnt see it..
In any case, the Sourceforge dll / nwnx_funcs rar file, which was uploaded today, actually contains the same version dll that I had before.
(created/modified on the 29th June)
I will give it a go, and see if it can set the event script.
edit====
Still getting the same errors about the event script length/invalid characters. |

Lol... got to 99% downloaded, when I realised it was downloading vs2010.....
I chose 2008, but the stupid browser refreshed when I allowed it to use the activeX thing.... so It made me inadvertintly choose vs2010 instead of reselecting 2008....

Ok, one more try with uploading to sourceforge.
... I think I need a vacation, or a memory upgrade, or something. |
