FPS Counter with Modtek 1.5 alpha #1

Open thrandisher opened 6 years ago

thrandisher commented 6 years ago

Whew, this one took me a few hours to track down.

With the new Modtek 1.5 alpha, i get the fun FPS counter / infinite loading screen.

I droped down to 1.4 Modtek and everything would load, only errors i saw in btml log related to this i think is. StartingMercsMod: Merge => SimGameConstants (SimGameConstants) Could not find an existing VersionManifest entry for SimGameConstants. Is this supposed to be a new entry? Don't put new entries in StreamingAssets!

Im not sure thats 100% related to it, but from my nub standpoint, that versionmanifest error is related to the mercmod due to the order, and it wasnt there when i tried to load up with mercs removed.

I tried grabbing the latest release of startingmercs here and tried to load up and ran into the loading problem also. I was originally running the v0.6 - BattleTechMod Tools with updated BTML and added Panzar mod.

yea thats my bad, gonna fix that

With the new Modtek 1.5 alpha

that should not happen, I'll test it myself and report any issues to modtek. Just to be sure, the BTMTools 0.6 still contain the old ModTek right?

Ya, still contains the old modtek.

I thought it was a weird bug, hence why it took me awhile to track it down. But removing the mod (i never used it anyways) i was able to load right into the game on 1.5 modtek.

I think .6 was packaged up a few hours before release. In fact, the only way I figured out the FPS icon issue was due to trying the .6 package again, lol.

EDIT: Oh btw, i did try with both versions of BattleTechModLoader. Well the one with harmony v1.1.0 and the previous version also, since i noticed the note you had there about some mods not playing nice with the new version. I had the same results.

I honestly am not trying to slow your guys work down on that preview stuff you were showing, honestly, lol.

absolute no problem for me, my tools and mods are to make it easier for people to do things. if you have trouble, thats a bug for me. if I could, I'd write a program that autodetects all issues and autocorrects them.

so in a sense, your bug reports are extremely helpful for my modding philosophy, so thanks for that!!!

thanks to you I identified the issue, its somewhere in ModTek https://github.com/Mpstark/ModTek/issues/53

thrandisher commented 6 years ago

I know, i was only teasing a bit. Ok, so the issue was somewhat i thought. Just above my pay grade to figure out ;)

CptMoore commented 6 years ago

well Mpstark did say its an Alpha and so thank you for testing.

thrandisher commented 6 years ago

Aye. no guts no galaxy mod had it in his latest release, which is why i stumbled into it. Apears theres a few other mods, besides this one, that are causing the issue.

I know i saw that error i posted on another mod, which i cant remember what one it was since i removed it.

Back to the hospital for me for the family member. So much for things slowing down like i thought they would today, lol.
