Family tree

[Bowden]

Hello again,

I've been trying to do some family tree-ing myself, and I've taken off, so to speak. However, something is causing a little turbulence. I do not know what I am doing wrong.

I'll add the (reduced) log file, names file, descr_names file and the descr_strat file.

Hope anyone can solve this.

Cheers

[Swagger]

if you explain the problem and do add the files, that would help.

I'm getting a lot of errors, see the log file.

you need to start by sorting these errors out.

[Swagger]

instead of just posting the files you can start out by saying what happens.. does it CTD? does the family appears blank? only the leader? no traits?.. whatever happens

[Bowden]

That's the purpose of this thread. I can't.

It wont let me start a campaign, sends me back to the Single Player menu.

[Swagger]

thats an error in the descr_strat


i also note alot of errors with the names, so you better sort them one at a time, everything you need to know is pretty much slapped on the log

[Bowden]

Ill just quote myself:

That's the purpose of this thread. I can't.

[Swagger]

and why can't you do it?

[Bowden]

Because it appears I can't find the origin of the problem.

As you could've seen in the provided files,
all of the names are in names.txt and descr_names.txt, all of the relative lines end with , end, and I've put all character_records in.

Perhaps you could just take a look at the files instead?

[Swagger]

{Yaroslav2}Yaroslav
(Yaroslav2)Yaroslav
Yaroslav2|Yaroslav

you used "(" and ")" and none at all, you should have used {}

and actually you should have removed those last 2 lines as they're just messing the game, considering you have a clean entry just above


that's for starters


if you want to simple your fixing, you might want to use the name checker tool and names.txt generator

Most of the time when you have sorted out the data base errors (data\text\names and data\descr_names related) then the family errors disappear.

[Bowden]

Where should I have been adding the names to?

descr_names.txt and
names.txt?

Will it solve the kiddie problem too?

[irishron]

To both if they are not already listed. Be sure they are listed under the right factions, too.

[Bowden]

the names.txt appears alphabetically ordered to me.
I have put them with the right faction in descr_names.txt.

[irishron]

Names.txt, you can put them at the end.

[Bowden]

I have done so indeed.

[Bowden]

I'm having two kinds of errors now:

"16:44:48.390 [script.err] [error] Script Error in mods/Regionmod_Kings/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/descr_strat.txt, at line 2511, column 34
Couldn`t find spouse Anna4" (only this one)

and

"16:44:48.390 [script.err] [error] Script Error in mods/Regionmod_Kings/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/descr_strat.txt, at line 2511, column 1
Couldn't find character records name (Vsevolod2) in the names database" (about 10, all and only names with a number behind it)


What is the origin of these failures, and how to fix them? Ill add the descr_names, names and descr_strat.

[Gigantus]

Probably your names.string.bin did not generate again after you made changes to the txt file. I am attaching both files, try if they work.

[Bowden]

No changes. Still the many name databases missing and still the spouse missing
