TableView not working with some files
on: January 18, 2008, 08:09:39 pm
Hey there, I'm trying to get a better idea on how to execute weapons modding and I seem to be in a bind.  For whatever reason, I try opening the *.tbl files for the Babylon Project and I get gobbledygook, yet when I open the addition-shp.tbm and earthland-shp.tbm the contents have no trouble being displayed.  So, am I on crack or what?  :p
Deuternomy 22:11 explained:

Well there are many different speculations going on about this law about not mixing fibers and at least one explanation claims that it was a symbolic gesture designed to keep a pure sense of culture, people, and religion.  Seperation of crop  in the vinyard, mentioned in Dt. 22:9 and 22:10 seem to reaffirm this idea, though there may be other reasons as well.

And now, an excerpt from the Prayer of Mordecai, the Book of Esther Chapter C (New American Bible Official Catholic version).

Est C:5  You know all things.  You know, O Lord, that it was not out of insolence or pride or desire for fame that I acted thus in not bowing down to the proud Haman.  6  Gladly would I have kissed the soles of his feet for the salvation of Israel.  7  But I acted as I did so as not to place the honor of man above that of God.  I will not bow down to anyone but you, my Lord.  It is not out of pride that I am acting thus.

I would recommend opening tables with notepad or something similar.  The table code is not that hard to understand.  I have never used TableView though, so I don't know how much easier it is.

Well then, it looks like you are on crack. (Just kidding)

Lemme see that table file.  Maybe it is just corrupt or something.

I'm thinking it's corrupt.

It's odd because TBP works fine.

You could try re-extracting it.  It may have gotten corrupt some time between when you extracted it and now.

i use notepad++, i have it configured to mark up tables, it also marks up lua and c++ for me by default (and many many other languages).
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Yah, I've succesfully stared at numerous table files using either Maja or QuickVP for extraction and Notepad for viewing. Don't know about 'dem TableViews, though.

fs1 tables used to be encrypted to prevent cheating. but because some early modders so easily broke it, volition just used unencrypted files for fs2 and checked for cheaters in other ways. tableview is one of those things left over from the early days of fs modding and hasnt been rebuilt to deal with all the new fields the scp uses.

This might be just another problem that happens when trying to open or extract files from very large .VP files with VPView. At least that happened to me. Had to extract the tables first using Maja as any of the files opened with VPView were corrupted.

I'll have to give Maja a try.  Though it's probably time to reinstall the Babylon Project since I can no longer open up FRED.  Have no idea what the hell I did to it. meh.  Thanks to everyone who posted. :)
