For effect 177 (Use EFF file), there is a limited selection of IDS's available.  Would it be possible to enable all IDS's to be an option?  Just as an example, if I wanted to filter an effect to only apply to Dynaheir, I would use NPC.IDS : DYNAHEIR.  Her # within the IDS is already given (4), so I'm wondering if you can figure out and tell us the other IDS #'s.

Unfortunately, it looks like the current selection is a hardcoded limitation.

Hmm.  Does that mean the engine just doesn't have assigned #s for the other IDSs?  Sadface.

Yeah.


New build. I was not able to reproduce Argent77's problem for some reason, but unless the people who document Java are liars, this build should fix it. There are also a few minor bug fixes, but nothing major. No ETA on full BGEE compatibility, in case anyone is wondering. If it wasn't obvious by now, I also completely slacked off on the TIS-header stuff. Turns out the TIS code is not always able to handle header-equipped TIS files, or something. Some other day, perhaps.

Source is here, as usual.

The new build works perfectly!

Both WAV files and ACM files are decoding and playing nicely now. Well done! :new_thumbs:

New build. Notably, this version features handling of VEF files, written by Argent77.
This version will also transparently use UTF8 when reading BGEE TLKs, without interfering with your charset of choice for non-BGEE games. Now, if it could also have let you choose which TLK you want to source your strings from, that would have been just swell.
 
Source is here, as usual.
 
Edit: oh, I forgot to mention, starting with this version I will be compiling against Java 7, so my builds probably won't run on Java 6 and earlier versions. The code itself will still compile on Java 6.

Wisp: Is it possible to add compatibility with OGG Vorbis sound files? That's the standard for BG(2):EE and NI is currently unable to read it.

I imagine so. A quick search reveals at least one Java library capable of decoding OGG Vorbis. (Under the assumption I do it,) NI will probably support the new audio format before it supports the new image format (no Java library for PVR as far as I can tell, and you have to sign up and log in before you are allowed the privilege of viewing their precious format specification), but I couldn't tell you when it will happen.

Sam, could you rewrite the first post so the last and so the best version would be on top and the rest hidden with spoiler tags like so:

[spoiler] -text- [/spoiler]

OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

I know how spoiler tags work, there's one in my sig... :P

Is that a little cleaner?

Ouh yeah, well it's my policy to give the copyable code instead of asking things without reference just in general, it's as easy for new forum people as to old.
And yes, it's far better now.

New build. New features include from-scratch resource creation (available under the file menu), file headers on exported TIS files, improved handling of PRO files (dynamic resizing depending on the projectile type) and a fair amount of minor-ish fixes and other changes. All credit for this goes to Argent77.
 
Source code.

Please could you explain us how to use the "from-scratch resource creation" fonction ? It is desesperately grayed in the file menu...

 

Thanks.

What game are you trying to use it on? The list of available resources is tailored to the deteced game, so if your game is not detected properly that would lead to problems. NI should print the name of the detected game at the bottom of the window.

You need to update your Java library.

I was afraid of that. The last time I did an update I had nothing but problems, so I had to roll back to an older version.
