a gallery of dromed errors

Odd, yes. I also save cow files and not mis. So who knows? No harm seems to come from it though.

I changed a model of a merchant (DromEd 1) to Farkus (expfraka) and decided to give him a hammer as a weapon. Set AI propeties, hammer propeties, etc... At last selected Renderer -> Mesh Attach property to attach the hammer to my "engineer"'s hand. It was a bug, I guess - the window showed that there were already (!) 4 objects attached to him, they had huge numbers, attached to unknown numbers of joints, with offsets in format like 0.7e+7... Despite this, I changed the 1st object's parameters to mine. And when I went to game mode and tried to look at that fellow, Dromed told me:

Strange that when I re-opened Dromed and loaded my save file (I saved just before giving Mesh Attach property), the window was clear - all zeros.
Magic? Or this is one more clue that I've been Dromeding too much?

Later. One more error with this very "engineer".

It occured when he noticed me and tried to attack. I don't understand what exact submodel Dromed means...
Guess that's enough Dromeding for today. :)

This one has popped up twice today when complete processing. but back to back complete processing does not get it a second time. Any idea how to find the bad vertex and discipline it? ... LATER: Found it, I think. Some bad boy had zero dimensions. Naughty!

What's a 3ad?

LarryG on 2/11/2009 at 15:44

Puzzled me too. But I think it may be an abbreviation for thread. three-ad. 3ad.

hehe.. i am pretty sure you know it..

btw i would meant that: to see all those errors popups in a single one time make me feel nervous just like when i work on dromed for real.

This is with Dromed 1.37 Thief Gold

You can view the AiPathCells, and AiPathLinks here:(http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1923807#post1923807) http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1923807#post1923807

I am currently trying to resolve this problem by changing some of the Terrain to create solid lines in the pathcell links. I am no expert by no means, and if any of you Veteran Dromeders can help to analyze the Cell Paths, and make some suggestions other that what I am trying to do, please leave your post in that thread. A process of elimination has already been attempted, and although the mission file will open in darkloader 4.3, I would prefer to eliminate this error in Dromed 1.37

Anyone know anything about this one?

I didn't know he ever made that crash dump tool public. :o
