CompilePal doesn't pack r_screenoverlay texture added through AddOutputted Output

[SpookyToad2]

CompilePal doesn't detect r_screenoverlay is being used if it's added through AddOutputted Output. Same happens with "play" I believe

What version are you using? Can you try the latest prerelease?

By latest prerelease you mean experimental version? For some reasons it's not launching for me. Also sorry for such a long time of waiting

[Exactol]

Yea, are there any crash logs in the compile pal folder after it fails to launch?

[SpookyToad2]

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at CompilePalX.GameConfigurationParser.Parse(String binFolder) in D:\a\CompilePal\CompilePal\CompilePalX\GameConfiguration\GameConfigurationParser.cs:line 22 at CompilePalX.GameConfigurationManager.LoadGameConfigurations() in D:\a\CompilePal\CompilePal\CompilePalX\GameConfiguration\GameConfigurationManager.cs:line 150

What game are you compiling for and can you send me the GameConfig.txt from it's bin folder?

[SpookyToad2]

Team Fortress 2, GameConfig.txt

[Exactol]

Are you using Hammer++? I tried loading your GameConfig and it seemed to have worked fine on v27.30, so it might be a different issue.

[SpookyToad2]

Yeah i'm using h++

I can confirm that I've seen someone else suffer the exact same issue as Spooky with launching compilepal while being a H++ user. Seems to be a problem with 27.30, 27.29 is fine so maybe the H++ config support added in 27.30 is working incorrectly? The H++ gameconfig (/bin/hammerplusplus/) has a slightly different format in how it stores data compared to the gameconfig in /tf/ so perhaps that's what's tripping it up.

@SpookyToad2 Can you send me the hammerplusplus_gameconfig.txt in the bin/hammerplusplus folder?

[SpookyToad2]

Whoops sorry for a long reply. hammerplusplus_gameconfig.txt

[Exactol]

Can you try this build? https://www.dropbox.com/s/hv8cvz4koitrqul/Compile%20Pal%20027.30.zip?dl=0 It should fix the crash on startup, and hopefully the issue packing screen overlays as well

[SpookyToad2]

Now CompilePal Launches! I'll check actual packing of r_screenoverlay tomorrow

[SpookyToad2]

Nope. Doesn't seem to pack them

[SpookyToad2]

Shall I send you test map plus materials? I check github really rarely sadly :(

[Exactol]

Yes please

Can I send it to your discord? I don't want to share vmf and materials publically

[Exactol]

Yea, my discord is Exactol#2167
