Kriegz Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 When I follow the command by pressing D for the slot 8 choice and then A for white tape, it just jumps right back to the select slot 8 choice. I have WinME, and it is probualy causing the problem, any way to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 When I follow the command by pressing D for the slot 8 choice and then A for white tape, it just jumps right back to the select slot 8 choice. I have WinME, and it is probualy causing the problem, any way to fix it? Does it work if you select another bat, other than D? Or if you select another option other than A? I don't have WinME to test it on, but I can look to see if there is a problem with those specific selections.... Did you replace CHOICE.EXE with CHOICE.COM? Make sure you delete CHOICE.EXE entirely if you haven't already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I just looked through the batch file and I don't see anything out of place at those specific locations...I'm wondering about the CHOICE.COM/EXE thing though, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 It does it with all selections even after I delete choice.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 If it helps, under where I make the tape chice, it very quickly flashes the message 1 file(s) copied Then it jumps back to the choice 8 screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriegz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 Which .big file are the bat .fsh files located in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Which .big file are the bat .fsh files located in? initstaz.... Actually that's not technically totally correct, since there is another .big file within the initstaz file within which the .fsh files are located. It is called initstay.big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriegz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 Well I thought it was installed because I updated the bat.fsh file, but I guess I also have to update the file in the initstatz.big file, but because it contains another .big file inside and the way it is setup, I have no idea how to update it, open the file in EAGE and you'll see what I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 Can someone please tell me how to update the Bat.fsh file in the initstay.big file with step by step instructions it would be much appriciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker_jim_uk Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 copy a bat file that updates the initstay and edit it to reflect your changes. The gloves are in there too I believe, try that fglv.bat. Or edit bat selector.bat and alter it so only the 8 bat bmps you want to copy are left, then run the bat something like this should work. copy bmpsbrown1.bmp fsh0000.bmp copy bmpsred2.bmp fsh0001.bmp copy bmpsblack6.bmp fsh0002.bmp copy bmpsbrown1.bmp fsh0003.bmp copy bmpslightbrown0.bmp fsh0004.bmp copy bmpslightbrown5.bmp fsh0005.bmp copy bmpslightbrown2.bmp fsh0006.bmp copy bmpslightbrown8.bmp fsh0007.bmp CLS ECHO.

spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 The key is this part: echo off gfxpak -u datainitstaz.big mkdir models mkdir misc cd models mkdir textures cd .. cd misc mkdir textures cd .. gfxpak -u initstay.big move bat.fsh models/texturesbat.fsh gfxpak -d initstay.big models/textures/bat.fsh gfxpak -p initstay.big models/textures/bat.fsh gfxpak -p datainitstaz.big initstay.big rd /S /Q models rd /S /Q misc del initstay.big Because of the way that the inistay is 'nested' inside initstaz, you have to use this batch file rather than EAGraph or BIGGui. In addition, before you unpack initstay, you need to create the folders for it to unpack into. Finally, when you are trying to repack the bat.fsh into the initstay, you first need to delete the old bat.fsh (gfxpak -d initstay.big models/textures/bat.fsh) or else it will just stick both of them in there and revert to using the old one. All of these steps are taken care of for you in the above batch file. So, if you can figure out how to make a new bat.fsh, then you put it and the above batch file in the main MVP folder, along with gfxpak, and excecute the batch file, it should work.

spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I put the updated bat.fsh and the batch that spitoon posted in the mvp folder and ran it but it didn't work I'd suggest using the /fsh folder from my mod. Place the bmps that you want in there, renaming them 0000.bmp through 0007.bmp. If this folder is in the normal place (in the main MVP folder) then create a batch file (in the main MVP folder) that says: nfshtool fshindex.fsh bat.fsh That should create the bat.fsh in the main folder. Then run the batch file that I posted in this thread to insert the bat.fsh into the initstaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I put the updated bat.fsh and the batch that spitoon posted in the mvp folder and ran it but it didn't work Do you get a response, an error message, or does it just flash up and disappear? If you are running the Microsoft Antispyware app, you need to run the batch file twice. The first time it runs, it asks permission, you click yes, and it shuts down for some reason. Run it again and it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Okay, I see the problem there. WinME is having a problem with this line: move bat.fsh models/texturesbat.fsh Hence the error "too many parameters"... So the rest of the program works except since it didn't move the bat.fsh into the right folder, it can't copy anything.... I don't know WinME, but maybe try changing 'move' to 'copy' in the batch file and see what happens. The other errors "invalid switch - /S" is another WinME issue, but won't effect the running of the program. That line simply deletes the two folders created to unpack the initstay into. You'll have to manually delete those folders when you are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 The last option would be to simply put the bat.fsh file into the correct folder yourself. You'd have to pause the batch file, move the bat.fsh into the models/textures folder yourself and then continue the batch file... This will do that: echo off gfxpak -u datainitstaz.big mkdir models mkdir misc cd models mkdir textures cd .. cd misc mkdir textures cd .. gfxpak -u initstay.big echo on PAUSE Move bat.fsh into models/textures folder. echo off gfxpak -d initstay.big models/textures/bat.fsh gfxpak -p initstay.big models/textures/bat.fsh gfxpak -p datainitstaz.big initstay.big rd /S /Q models rd /S /Q misc del initstay.big So create your bat.fsh, run the batch and when it pauses minimize it, copy and paste your file into the correct folder, then maximize the window and press a key to contiue... Sorry I'm just not up on WinME commands, I'm sure there's a better way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 Changing the hash worked That you sooooo much spitoon you rule Now I have to go do this same thing with the ball.fsh, I will just have switch the lines that say bat.fsh to ball.fsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The syntax of commands seems to change with every version so I'm never exactly sure what command to use.... So, if it finally worked maybe we can get the selector to work?

Kriegz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 I was able to get the ball and gloves in with this Batch file, thanks again spitoon! edit: something I noticed in that .big file, there were .fsh files for the skin tones, If someone came out with a Hi Res skin tone mod I think it would add a nice touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Great, I'm happy we got it to work. I've been looking into things to see if I can make the selector work for WinME, but I'm having problems with the "SET" command. I wrote the batch to cycle through 8 times (once for each bat), starting at 8 and subtracting 1 each time until it gets down to 1. In Win2000 and XP you can change the SET variable using mathematical functions, so I use '-1' each time until 8 becomes 1...unfortunately, the SET command in WinME doesn't appear to allow these mathematical functions, so that's why it gets stuck at 8... Still looking into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
