Solved, see reply #3 & #6

When using Zuti's Actors Management Tool, to extract actors.static files, keep getting this fault.
Any help, attempted with differing actors.static files.
Thanks.

Same fault with me when I yesterday tried it. I also added the MapSixe.txt file, but it didn't help...

By trial and failure:
try to copy/paste your original actors.static file in all of these folders simultaneously:

MW_Statics
Base_Files
Z_ActorsManagement

I do not know which is necessary, but this approach works for me.

I haven't used the tool for quite some time but I know that mapsize measurements leads to confusion and errors when extracting the actors.static.

On page 5 of Zuti's tutorial there is the screenshot were it says:

#  Size of map in y direction in
meters
2560.0


But it should be written on 2 lines like this:

#  Size of map in y direction in meters
2560.0


Otherwise extracting and creating won't work.


Another thing on page 5 is this:

# Size of the map "y direction" in meters is 1280 x 200=256000 which would
then be 25600.0 metres


Doesn't sound logical 25600.0 instead of 256000 but that's the way it should be written in the MapSize.txt file.

Another thing to take in consideration is to avoid a so called 'String" error.

After extracting the actors.static and copy-pasting the objects entries from the mission .txt file (the entries underneath [Buildings] section) into the inBuildings.txt file please leave no empty space between the lines.
And all entries need to be lined up correctly on the left side.
Otherwise compiling the new actors.static won't work.

Example:

« Reply #7 on: June 10, 2015, 04:29:49 PM »

OK, now that I've got Zuti's Actors Management Tool to extract properly,
are the outputs in the extracted *.txt files still relevant to later versions, 4.12.2 & 4.13rc4.

Reason I ask, from Cannons Engish Channel Map 1941-1942 (his original, in HSFX7) for example,
from the extracted outNStationary.txt file, I get;
Code: [Select]
NStationary]
  0_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 105846.445 220073.36 3735.0 0.0 null
  1_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 106577.664 220812.64 3555.0 0.0 null
  2_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 204134.67 312343.3 4265.0 0.0 null
  3_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 203540.58 311410.3 4445.0 0.0 null
  4_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 176144.48 329380.47 5165.0 0.0 null
  5_Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI_1 1 176779.33 330304.62 4985.0 0.0 null
and so on up to "207" of "Static vehicles.planes.Plane$BI" Of course there are not any BI's on the map...
and similarly in outChiefs.txt I get;
Code: [Select]
[Chiefs]
  0_Chief Armor.1-BT7 1
  1_Chief Armor.1-BT7 1
  2_Chief Armor.1-BT7 1
  3_Chief Armor.1-BT7 1
  4_Chief Armor.1-BT7 1
--up t0 106--
  107_Chief Vehicles.GAZ67 1
  108_Chief Vehicles.GAZ67 1
  109_Chief Vehicles.GAZ67 1
--up to 373--
  374_Chief Vehicles.WillisMB_US 1
  375_Chief Vehicles.WillisMB_US 1
  376_Chief Vehicles.WillisMB_US 1
--up to 1881--
and then the one really don't understand is the outwing.txt file. Why would this be in the actors.static file?
