Sorry my english is bad, but try to bear with it. (pictures might be too big to modem users. sorry)
The problem is that the editor (fallout 2 mapper) doesn´t save all the chances that I make to critters. I tryied to make new proto by following Coljack´s tutorial. You can get it here --> http://www.coljack.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fallout/
I took some pictures to show if I, made everything by the tutorials.
First I chanced the mapper2.cfg file. --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/config.JPG. Then I made the dev folder to
c:\fallout2\dev\proto\critters and the other folders, and I made the proto folders to fallout2\data folder.
But after these chances I tryied to make a new proto with the fallout 2 mapper --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/Valikko.JPG. everything could be chanced and no error messages at any time. But if you close the mapper and come back this would happen -->http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/Valikko2.JPG. The name is gone. But mapper will save some chances, like these but not the name --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/jotakin.jpg. (to be right, after these chances the critter list would be empty, only after chances explained at down, would you apply to see the critters)
Here are pictures what happened after I maded the first chances and closed the program. --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/1_muutos.JPG, at the .lst file their is only the new file line, nothing else. and if you go back to program all the critters have vanished. Also a new file appeared to the dev folder --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/1.1_muutos.JPG.
I then tryied the editor but first I inserted the complete critter.lst to proto\critters folder. and when I then made a new proto, mapper writed a line to critter.lst and made a new file --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/2_muutos.JPG. and --> http://www.netikka.net/tomi.lampi/2.1_muutos.JPG. Now I could see all the critters but the names are still chanced to <none>, after I restart the mapper.
To remind people, that I didn´t do the 1. & 2. part at the tutorial because I didn´t add any new .frm files or anything like that. And another thing that I almost forget, that when I chance the old protos they do the same thing but the name chances back to what is was, before chances.
I have tryied with the 1.2 patch and without it. But with no luck. (and I renamed the patch000.dat)
So anyone have good advices, tips or know how to fix the problem? Please! I really would like to this thing to work.
