Prayer for help

[attyla]

If you remember i have some problems with making scripts. I'm suspecting there is something wrong with my campaign_script file but it could be something different. So i would like to ask someone for checking my mod for possibility making scripts.
There is my mod:
http://www.2shared.com/file/J1XLbhiW/deus_vult.html

[attyla]

nobody can look at it?

[Carle]

Three questions:
1) what did you change?
2) what are you trying to accomplish?
and 3) did you check the log?
I'm not entirely sure where the log is but I know that it helps with debugging scripts, as I've been told by more experienced modders that it records counters.

[Gigantus]

Checking a script on it's own is pretty much a lost effort.
You can usually find a message in the log why the script didn't run.

how it looks like? i've checked log lot times but i never found something unusually.

[Gigantus]

You search for entries that have [error] in them.
Open the log with notepad, press Ctrl+F and then enter that highlighted word. Click 'Find Next' to find all occasions.
Error messages usually come in two lines. The error entry and the explanation.

So i have problem because i have no errors in my log file...

That means that whatever you did between testing, and everything being fine, and then testing again, and seeing a CTD, caused your problem.

If the log says nothing then you have to remember what you've done so that you can remove it all stage by stage and find out where you caused an error.

Sorry if I am pointing out the obvious.

[attyla]

i never had any CDT - my scripts simply doesn't work and i have no idea why.

[Gigantus]

I will give it a shot if I can download your mod...

[Taiji]

It doesn't matter if it CTDs or not, you're missing the point. You have a problem, and if you forgot how you caused it then you have a serious problem. I'm telling you to fix your approach to modding if you want to avoid situations like this.

If on the other hand you know what you have changed since it was working last then tell us.

[attyla]

hmm... am i avoiding something? i've made all i know i can make to find what's going on. i've tryed to make a lot of scripts and every time i could make some errors but it looks litke the game do not notice my try. i've made it and game always miss my etries in CS file.

Well if you aren't trying to avoid making problems you can't solve then you should be

Heve you any idea why game doesn't accept scripts in my mod?

[Gigantus]

I compared the script you supplied with the original from Med2 = the only difference is part that commented out (put a semi-colon in front of the lines). So the question is not about accepting the script.

I had a look at those lines and deleted the ones that are not necessary. You also created a counter and then referred to an event counter, that was most likely the error:

monitor_conditions I_SettlementOwner Constantinople = byzantium
;and I_EventCounter holds_constantinople == 0
;add_events
;event counter holds_constantinople
;date 0
;end_add_events
set_event_counter holds_constantinople 1
end_monitor

monitor_conditions not I_SettlementOwner Constantinople = byzantium
;and I_EventCounter holds_constantinople == 1
and I_NumberOfSettlements byzantium > 0
set_event_counter holds_constantinople 0
end_monitor

This will now control an event_counter that you can use in the EDB for recruitment purposes:

recruit_pool "Skythikon"  1   0.03   2  0  requires factions { byzantium, armenia, } and event_counter holds_constantinople 1

I've tried meny times and many kinds of this (and not only thtis) script and always i had no effect. No succes, no errors - nothing.
I'll try to make it one more thime, but i'm weird sure the effect will be the same. It means - there will be no effect

I have one error i can't find any causes:
