What can I do?

You probably changed one of the game tables somehow. If you're running more than 1 mod, make sure they're compatible. If nothing else works, you'll probably have to reinstall the game or find a backup copy of the VPP file that holds the tables (like the weapons table). I don't have FS2 so I can't really give you specific help.

[AlphaOne]

freak.........! I'l see if removing some of the mods does the trick cuz if it does not then i'm in seroius trouble.

Oh and  what is this i heard aboutchapter 3 beeing a non SCP version. Do i really have to use the original launcher i mean the FS2 original executable...?

Edit: Not good i removed the chapter 4 tbl.s from the FS directory and it gives me the same error report. Also the original weapons tabels is still there in its own directory alon with the ship tbl.

Doesnt anyone know what could cause this? The problem started when i installed the chapter 3 nd 4 of the ITDoH !

[Dan1]

If I recall correctly, the directions say to leave all the files in from chapter 2 except for a couple.  I wish I had internet conn at my home and I'd tell you exactly what it says.

Also,  not using the SCP isn't the end of the world, it 's a fun campaign and chapter 4 is even better...where's chapter 5?

[NGTM-1R]

Being worked on. Noise asked Trashman for a Nightmare cruiser to help with it semi-recently. I also vaguely recall someone mentioning it being split into two chapters, but don't quote me on that last.

[AlphaOne]

actualy i also heard that its suposed to be split in 3 not 2 but also dont quote me on that! Also i managed to get the campaign to work but now it crashed the game to desktop oh well i guess its that elusive bug i heard. No harm il just restart the game again. So far the campaign has been great!
I cant wait for chapter 5. WEll first il finish up chapter 3 and 4.

Also did anyone else get Rockye's in the mission where you have to take out the Sfr Dis instead of some cool new topedoes?? I was just wondering if its a bug or its deliberate programing!

And again great work been enjoing it at maximum so far. I just wished it wouldnt of brought me on the brink of a heart attack.......you know what i' talkng about...our all time favorite "scare me lifeless crush me to pieces thingy"

Answers to questions:

Chapter 5 is "split" into three mini-chapters. Part 2 of chapter 5 was about seven missions long (and very very fun! )

The MX-50 bug is a bug. I've been planning on looking into it, but have been lazy. I've heard that you can use a secondary weapons cheat to get the Slayer Sprint Torps.

As for Chapter 3 not working: A lot of people seem to not read the readme, which states that all chapters of ITDOH are cumulative: you must have the previous VP's in order to play the newer chapter. Use the mod.ini to select ITDOH2 on the secondarylist.

Chapter 3 (and four, and a third of chapter 5) has furthermore been updated to SCP. The SCP versions are available on Hades Combine. If you recently got chapter 3, then it's likely you have the SCP version.

[NGTM-1R]

Don't say part of chapter five is out when there's nothing there!

* ngtm1r strangles Dark Hunter for getting his hopes up.

[Mathwiz6]

Wanna bet? Hammer falls was available for download on a thread somewhere here...

[NGTM-1R]

It's not on Hades, and that's all I know.

[Dark Hunter]

It was available for download on that thread because High Max wanted me to SCP-ify it. That's the only reason I have it.

[Rhythmic]

It was available for download on that thread because High Max wanted me to SCP-ify it. That's the only reason I have it.

Hook it up again plz. Upload to sendspace or megaupload or something ya,

This is the new error report i keep getting. I removed CH3 and Ch2 but to no use it gives me the previous error as this new one!

Edit: Actualy it gives me a host of other error reports and they are connected with the Fury MK IV !

Die shivan die!!
Then jumps into his apple stealth pie and goes of to war.What a brave lad....what a brave lad say the ladies in red

This makes me laugh like crazy due to sheer randomness, For some god-awful reason i read it in Borats accent.. Yakshe-mash

[AlphaOne]

ummm.....sure whatever you say.

But do you have some info on how i can get beyond these horible errors and finish the blasted chapter 4??? I mean it has been keeping me on the edge of excitement for like more then 30 minutes. I want to see what happenes in chapter 4.

[Herra Tohtori]

I'm having trouble with ItDOH Chapter 4. Chapters 1, 2 and 3 went by with relatively minor setting up and didn't give me any errors that would've harmed the gameplay (not that I remember any, at least). But the fourth... Something's awry with the modular ships table, if my analysis is even remotely correct.

Particularly, it does not find some Shivan craft for some reason, and substitutes an Ulysses for them. These craft do exist in ITDoH4-shp.tbm, but don't appear in-game (and are replaced by Ulysses):

-SC Raquel
-SCa Shiamak


These are the two craft that are below the SB Vindhyachal in the modular table...

When I moved the SB Vindhyachal's entry below these two, the SC Raquel becomes visible, while the ones below that one (SCA Shiamak and SB Vindhyachal) don't get into game. The table entries look fine in themselves, but it's like the game "cuts" the modular table after the first Shivan entry.

Ie. it would seem that *something* causes only the first Shivan entry to be read from the modular table. What this something is and why this happens, I haven't got any clue but this is the situation here. It feels weird, but could it be possible that the ship limit is exceeded here and an Inferno build would be needed? It would feel weird, since the chapter doesn't really add that much ships.

Well, let's list:

GTF Herc Mk.III
GTF Daedalus
GTCol Columbus
GTCivL Splendid
GTD Orion Phase 2
GTD Eternity
GTCv Nike
GTCv Gryphon
GTWc Orc
GTFr Vela
Vela Cargo

GVF Aoh
GVD Hedetet

SB Vindhyachal
SC Raquel
SCa Shiamak

...that makes 16 additional models. Does that cross the border? I wouldn't expect that, but I really don't know what the limit is. If that's not the reason, then there's something more wrong.

I'm using the 3.6.9RC7 build, and my command line is as follows (when playing this particular mod):

-mod Into_the_Dephts_of_Hell_4,mv_beamz_DDS_HIGH,DDS_beamglows,mediavp368zeta

I have my reasons to use this kind of mod setup, but it *should* work, shouldn't it?


By the way, the Chapter 4 readme explicitly tells that previous chapters are *not* needed to play Ch.4... But as I said, I can only get one of the Shivan craft to work at a time.

[TrashMan]

Fury Mk IV?

If I recall correctly, that a missile I made and gave it to Noise. But it was supposed to be a capship weapon..

[Herra Tohtori]

Oy. So no one else has trouble getting all the campaign-specific ships working? 

Hmm, I wonder if I have the SCP suitable chapter 4. It doesn't nag about weapons, however, they work as a charm.

[karajorma]

It can also get rid of some of the nagging if you turn off parsing errors in the launcher.

Not for long. We're removing that option soon cause quite frankly it's like spraying air freshener to remove the smell of the body rotting under your floorboards.

[Dark Hunter]

I think he gets those error messages because he is running regular ch4 with SCP. .

I would think it would also give a bunch of errors regarding the $ND tags if that was the case... Non-SCP stuff always gets hung up on those when played on Open.
