Thanks a lot, that helped me to get forward quite a bit.
(this must seem basic to you - but I haven´t done anything like this in 15+ years...) :p
At first, I had trouble getting Lazy Taffer to find the mission file (probably because of spaces in the folder names) but I solved that by copying over the .mis file and its corresponding .gam file somewhere else.
I´ve managed to get a .txt file that lists the loot items and coordinates. So far, so good. But I can´t get the last step right. TTLL does create a .html file, but it´s almost empty.
Well, for the 'spaces in paths':
always include them with double quotes. Then the command line will know what belongs together.
e.g.
Quote:
copy "My virus.exe" "C:\Program Files"
In order to figure out what is wrong with the html-file:
1. Do you have version 0.3 of ttll ? Only this version works with lazytaffer.
2. Please let me know what mission you are trying to look into
3. Please capture of
ttll.bat the output of
ttll.bat by adding
to the line.
Quote:
ttll.bat -i:Mission16.txt > output.txt
Check if you see errors there or post the output, please.
Greetings,

Could you describe what you see in the Browser when you open the html-file ?

Here was my last problem! I had an old version of ttll.
Managed to get a loot map now. Thanks a bunch! :thumb:
Also thanks for the tip about double quotes.

(
http://www.gnartsch.de/TTLL/TTLL.shtml) Version 0.3.3 is out !
A couple of issues were fixed - especially with respect to reports created via LazyTaffer
where loot was not always properly reported for certain difficulties only.
Also some color highlighting has been added for
- Start loot (which you can spend in the shop before starting the real mission)
- Negative loot (for those missions that have in-game-shops)
Since I still need to work on the Online-help, please refer to (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131030&p=2024495&viewfull=1#post2024495) this post,
in case you don't want to bother with DromED and use LazyTaffer instead to prepare the initial report,
that is required as input for '
The Tricksters Loot Locator'.

Got it! Thanks for the update! :angel::thumb:

I spent some time over the weekend for the next version.
It takes 2 new parameters:
Quote:
/showSecrets
/showPickPockets
Oh, and they work with LazaTaffer only, but not with the DromED reports.
However, be aware that not all secrets might be shown, since there are many ways to implement them in the game.
Since I had little time for testing, I prefer to call the version
(http://www.gnartsch.de/Download/ttll-0_4_alpha.zip) 0.4alphaFeedback is always welcome of course !
For sure some things still need some improvements.
Or maybe you have problems with specific missions...

Known issues with version 0.4 alpha* if /showSecrets is set and any secret is controlled by multiple triggers, then TTLL will crash.
(e.g. miss12 & miss13 from Thief2)
--> fixed
* coordinate of the secret is replaced with the coordinate of the trigger, which might be misleading in some cases
--> fixed
* problem with secrets in WhenStill & TheLastLighthouseKeeper
--> fixed
(
http://www.gnartsch.de/Download/ttll-0_4_1_alpha.zip) Version 0.4.1alpha is up.
The problems mentioned above are fixed.
Note that secrets & the corresponding triggers (there may be 0, 1 or more) are now separated.
Secrets are indicated with leading
? S#
whereas the triggers (if any) have leading
! T#.
The # indicates the ID of the secret and helps you to identify the right trigger.
