Hoverbike fail

Nihil 14 years ago
Hello there, long time no see.
I see Ville is not going to give any update to game but im not asking for that.

My problem seems to be mean and evil because whenever I use hoverbike it does strange thing:
Werivar mod: Either Mk1 or Mk2 hoverbikes are usable, buildable but when I use the keycard and get into it the screen just goes to top-left corner of map and cant move it. I barely managed to drive there and the screen wont move, it goes back to normal when I exit the bike.
I tested it on Vanilla: The same thing happen except I am ejected from hoverbike very fast, In hermit map it was like quick look for egde of the map.

Can anyone help me with this? Got xp sp3, newest directx and I dont have any clue what it can be

The "camera on top-left on hoverbike" is a known problem with the latest core version of Notrium. And only an update could fix it, I think.

Also, welcome to the forums. Enjoy your stay.

Oh noes

Well, thats the big fail, I was hoping that I just overlooked something in files but it is not I see...

[ot]I was on forums before on Monkkonen with name Proso I think[/ot]

I think you'll have to use previous version for some time if you like to use those Hovers.
#

Uhh, if not only so much bug fixes etc

Well, maybe Ville will pour his blessing over the game and us and fix this one last bug
Or maybe not

EDIT: mmmkey, where can I find older versions of notrium? And whats the verion number of one without hoverbike problem?
Its also affecting Wazzal 2 mod not mentioning it runs slow but its annoying a bit on planets...

The one before going to .NET was v1.341. It also seems to be a bit faster working. I'm not quite sure why . It may be still available at harwe's profile (look at the link below his signature).

1.3.4.1? Uhh... I already have that version from the download from this site
It appears to be last version in readme changelog.
I am confused now
#
Venom31 14 years ago
It's been last for quite some time until Ville decided to revisit Notrium code. Going to .NET allowed to correct some bugs, but for me, 1.341 is still the best version...
1.345 is on .NET and is more recent, besides has a nifty Driftmoon ad in its launcher.

P.S. Who cares about changing the readme changelog, huh?
#
Nihil 14 years ago
Huh, and I was afraid I will miss some interesting changes, well I will try older notrium, maybe will get fun ^_^
#
harwe 14 years ago
Oh damn, I totally didn't know that there was a newer version of Notrium... Time to mirror that one too!
#
Nihil 14 years ago
Pleashe: Leave that version too :3

Probably Ville is too busy with Driftmoon so I doubt there will be new version.
#
ville 14 years ago
Yes, I'm a bit too busy with Driftmoon to fix Notrium. Sorry about that really. I should probably release the source code so somebody else could fix it...

I don't suppose there's a way to tell us how to fix it ourselves?
If that's possible...

I would say it isn't.

I have very recently run into this annoying problem myself and even downloaded the older version just to drive that hoverbike once again. But I have also coded myself a simple solution:

inside the hoverbike creature:
a new timed block (100 msec)
if creature carries another creature
attach camera to this creature forever

voila
that way it works in both new and old version

I'd release that script if I were you. We've got two script-heavy (-abusing?) mods in development right now, and I'm sure they'd gladly implement a bug workaround like this one. (Not that they couldn't reproduce your script from the description. But why duplicate work?)

Cheers for this Yin, I'm not that far off from vehicles, so I'll definitely be bearing this one in mind.

Script Abusing? Guilty, I'm about sixteen scripts from beating the next two closest competitors combined for total script count, and that's ignoring the creature and plot object script blocks.

I added this to my creature.dat and it worked but after I get off the bike camera is still focused on the bike.

Nevermind I managed to fix it by changing effect's parameter3 from -1 to 200.
