"Invalid parameters" when only -b specified on Linux #3

Closed mik13ST closed 7 years ago

Hello, I have extracted the base.scs into my base directory inside ETS2 root directory. I placed the converter_pix linux executable into the ETS2 root folder to make it as simple as possible. Yet it still does not work.

My ETS2 root dir looks like this: base/ base.scs* controller.vdf* core.scs* def.scs* licenses/ readme.rtf* base_cfg.scs* bin/ converter_pix* def/ effect.scs* locale.scs* tools/

When I run .../Euro Truck Simulator 2$ ./converter_pix -b ./base I get

****** Converter PMX to PIX Copyright (C) 2017 mwl4 ****** Invalid parameters

I was trying to convert just one model, but file not found error kept occurring, so I decided to try this first. Your tool should be able to do this like this (as of help and README.md).

What could be the problem? I am running Xubuntu 17.04. Should I try to compile it on my machine and see if it fixes it? Or are the any differences between using your tool on Windows and Linux?

Thanks.

If you want to convert whole base, then you should not use -b parameter. Run: ./converter_pix ./base -b parameter might be used to specify more base paths in the UFS.

Oh, ok ... didn't realize that, I must have overlooked that on the help page. Sorry for creating issue that not really is an issue. It's my misunderstanding of the help page.
