Run the debug version and then look in data. Post your FS2_Open.log as an attachment.

I can't post it.... the upload folder is full...
the file must be too big... but its only 4kb.... wtf?

[jr2]

Get a FileFront account and upload it there, then post a link to that.  Or another free file hosting site... Just Google "free file hosting" and there you go.
The upload folder hasn't been working of late.

[Col. Fishguts]

Sorry for the late reply, but what exactly is the problem, just random CTDs ?

Did it run before you installed the 3.4 beta ? What are your system specs ? I can verify that TBP runs just fine on my MacBook.

That its runs fine, I never had a problem after I got it to work

The folder is actually full.

However you can always just cut and paste the first 30 or so lines and the last 10. That should be all we actually need to figure out what is going on.

Mac OS 10.4.8

2 GHz PowerPC G5

1GB DDR SDRAM

ATI Radeon 9600

SCP runs fine, its just when I load TBP it crashes before it can get to the choose-a-callsign screen

I'll just post it all.

ships.tbl(line 99:Warning: Unable to find [Terran] in species names list.


[Col. Fishguts]

Ah, I think I know what's going on.

Code: [Select]

ships.tbl(line 99:Warning: Unable to find [Terran] in species names list.
The game tries to use the ships.tbl in the /data/tables folder, but the 3.4 beta comes with its own ships.tbl which references the new species_defs.tbl.
To solve the problem, either delete the ships-tbl in /data/tables, or replace it with the one in the B5-A-Patch-3_4.vp. It's not your fault, I should have pointed that out in the Linux/MacOSX thread.

And before kara starts yelling at me what the ships.tbl was doing there in the first place, it was actually necessary to be there. The 3.3a.vp has a table built for 3.6.7, which isn't compatible with the newer turret animation syntax. So I included an updated table outside of the VP to override the old table.

[karajorma]

You're entitled to stick tables in Data when you're running as a stand alone mod. It's when you run on top of FS2 that it quickly descends into farce.

[Harbinger of DOOM]

It works! Thank you SO VERY MUCH, everyone.
Now I have something to tide me over before I have enough money to get Seasons 3, 4, & 5!!!

[Harbinger of DOOM]

Ok, I started up Raider Wars (the first mission) and this came up:

Error: Invalid ship class name.

In sexpression: ( when
   ( order
      "Beta 2"
      "Protect my target"
      "Jumpgate Arm 2"
   )
   ( allow-ship "EA Aurora" )
   ( allow-ship "EA Aurora MK1" )
   ( allow-ship "EA Escort Aurora" )


File: /Users/taylor/src/cvs/fs2_open_3_6_9.final/projects/Xcode/../../code/mission/missionparse.cpp
Line 5792

[karajorma]

What's the rest of that error message?

There should be more.

I'm especially interested if it says the error was in the Order SEXP.

[IPAndrews]

That bug is fixed in the patches.

[Harbinger of DOOM]

my above post is editted, the complete message is there.

and where can I dl the patch(es)?

[jr2]

Have you looked at TBP - Proper Installation Procedures
and
TBP on Linux/MacOSX
?

[Harbinger of DOOM]

Ummm, it works now (except for RW)..... thanks anyway....

[Col. Fishguts]

Ummm, it works now (except for RW)..... thanks anyway....

I just tried it for myself, I can start the first RW mission without problems, that is with 3.3a though, not the 3.4 beta. Try reverting to 3.3a an check if the problem persists.

You're running the 3.6.9 universal binary, right ?

[IPAndrews]

I guess I'll have to release a new RW patch. It's no big deal. I'll put one together tonight.
