rumble room

[freedomgod55]

yes the when i play the ffx3.3 rumble room it takes a long time to load and also it will not load at all ??

[stumpy]

What exactly happens? Is the delay right when you go to the RR from the main menu or after you choose a RR mode or a map? Which one?

You'll need to post your script.log and your ff.err if it's not empty.

[freedomgod55]

it is when it starts to load the map

[Jakew]

Maybe you have too many hero files set up for the game?

I usually pick a few and keep the rest of the hero files stored elsewhere.

You'll need to post your script.log and your ff.err if it's not empty.

[freedomgod55]

[stumpy]

Yes, that looks like the script.log file. I am not a RR expert, but just going by what, it looks like the characters are initialized for FFX, which means the map has already loaded. Maybe I misread, but I got the impression from your earlier post that you were seeing trouble before the map finished loading. Is the script.log you posted from right after the crash? That's the one that would have the necessary info.

I am assuming that this is for a RR "Battle In The Rumble Room" session on the city map.

I am not seeing much catastrophically wrong with the posted that would totally crash the game. I do note that there is a message missing from the missionobjvar module that should note a reset of mission type to skirmish.

It also looks like the chardata module didn't see a complete HeroIndexData.txt file, which can happen when you play with a character that hasn't been run through the FFX Control Center, but I don't see any other note about the character not being branded, so that may not be a problem here. Is it true that your Lex Luthor character has one FFX attribute (RESILIENT) and the Avalanche has no attributes? If not, there may be a problem loading or initializing the Avalanche character. Is there anything unusual about that character? Will the RR load if you use other characters (like the built-in ones from the game)?

[freedomgod55]

yes the freedom force characters work fine

[GogglesPizanno]

Well if the builtins work, and the game is actually crashing back to the desktop, then it sounds like one of your meshes is causing it. More than likely its one of the meshes exported for the first game that needs to be converted. You might try taking the characters in one at a time to try and figure out which one it is.

[stumpy]

Ditto. Likely a mesh issue. Avalanche is the prime suspect at this point, since it seemed to crash before finishing initializing his attributes (unless he actually has none).
