About F2wedit 1.4.4.19, I think I found a bug. I can't add any new perks to items or change one to another. I can remove perks (set "None") from items with no problem, but if I added/changed perks, after clicking "done" button, any change of perks didn't get saved in the proto.

EDIT: The older version (1.3.1.13) works fine under the same situation.

So.... I haven't played around with these lately. Does this mean I should completely abandon FUCK and Mapper for editing critters, and only use this instead?

Because FIXT is going to require a shit-ton of critter changes over time so I'd like to use whichever is "best"

EDIT: Also, one thing that would be AMAZING is if you could add some kind of Compare option. I have copies in different folders of PROs and don't remember always what the differences were/are. Looking at the Hex or opening them in the aforementioned apps individually is a pain in the ass. Some kind of comparison tool either in this app or standalone would be fucking awesome. Examples of the kind of thing I'm thinking of:

Cubik, I've noticed all the map crashes my users of FIXT are getting, are on maps I've edited. Do you have any idea what could cause that? Mismatched .PRO perhaps? (i.e. used a different PRO when building the map then what is included with the mod). The problem is the only way that could be the issue, is for people not installed Patch 1 -- because my understanding is if the main install had this issue, basically everyone would be seeing the crashes, instead of isolated incidences.

We've seen crashes in Junktown, Hub Downtown, Raiders all of which are maps I've made changes to.

Thank you

It's almost always a PRO problem, something is missing from either the map, or proto file/list...or a mismatch somewhere. Recently with a new build with Mutants Rising, I had the same problem with maps crashing. The strange thing was when I hand dropped the new protos into their folders one at a time, it worked again...weird! Rolling Eyes

Sduibek, as Pixote wrote, the problem is with PRO files.

There is nice and easy solution for Tile Cutter but this need to have installed the tool ImageMagick

site:
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php

download:
http://www.imagemagick.org/download/binaries/ImageMagick-6.7.6-8-Q16-windows-dll.exe

I'm working on the tool named TileCutter uses ShellApi librabry and execute external necessary applications from ImageMagick for tile cutting. It will be done today.

Im using f2 wedit the latest version but I have 2 problems, I need to know if there is a restore to defult button cause after playing around I messed up my hint book, and the other thing is when I edit the # of charges an item has it doeant save

Sduibek · Posted: Fri Jun 22, 2012 6:45 Post subject:

Is there any way for you to get the mapper to check against PROs?

For example, check the PROs in the folder against the PROs used when the map file was last saved, to see if they are different. Would help a lot with troubleshooting map crashes (for me anyway)

So now I can finally mod FO1 files with F2Wedit without using a workaround? Sweet.

Although I noticed that when I fetched the update by using the auto-updater, the patch version is newer than what's advertised in this topic. Even newer than the Weapon Perk bug fix.

Any changes of importance?

Sduibek · Posted: Fri Aug 03, 2012 19:39 Post subject:

with f2wedit :

1) I get several seconds of lag and a CPU usage spike whenever clicking on an item in the list. Is that supposed to happen? I...don't get it

It happens every time I click on any item's entry in the list.

2) Also, Windows is marking every PRO I select as Modified, as well as PRO_ITEM.MSG as Modified. That's really not good... there's various reasons this is a bad idea. Why is your program marking files as modified just by reading them?

2b) These items actually get modified just by clicking on them (all the others are just marked as modified, but in fact had no changes) -- 90, 107, 165, 205

PRO 90: hex offset 0x40 changed from 08 to 01
PRO 107: hex offset 0x40 changed from 09 to 00
PRO 165: hex offset 0x34 changed from FF FF FF FF to 07 00 00 00
PRO 205: hex offset 0x1A changed from A8 to A0

3) Lastly, is possible to make multiple instances possible? I tried this and seems to be specifically designed to not allow multiple instances.

Suggestions for critter editor:

1) options menu that allows to set folder (so I don't have to use "FO1")

2) allow user to set so it always boots with Fo1 or Fo2 critters selected as default. (for example in my case so I don't have to click Fallout 1 every time) merely convenience but it'd be nice.

3) it's missing fields! Sad

Please add them... Otherwise we still have to use hex-editing / FUCK / Mapper which defeats the whole purpose.
Kill Type, Gender, AI Packet, Body Type, Critical Chance, Better Criticals, Age http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/PRO_File_Format#Critters

4) Name display doesn't take into account that CRITTERS.LST is out of order for some critters. For example look at PRO 24 and 25 (Nightkin and Townswoman). Your app reads them sequentially when in fact they are out of order in the list file, meaning slot 24 is PRO 25 and slot 25 is PRO 24.

Not trying to be rude or anything, just I've been using both extensively today and want to give my feedback / glitch reports. Of course we all appreciate your work Applause
