Problem with adding an Option

Wed Jun 12, 2019 5:54 am

I added 2 factions as playable: UKR and ANA. When I tried to add some options ( For example common option "Raise more money"), they were added partially... When you click ( For example F6 ), you can see the name of the option, the picture of the option, but when you move the cursor over the picture, there is no title, describe and all that text, that I wrote in LocalStrings_RUS. Moreover, you can't click on the option. In the full debug mode usually you can see in the left information section, that something changes, when you move the cursor to the pic, but here nothing changes. I have already added options to RED, WHI, WH3 and they work! But I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with ANA and UKR. I really hope for help.

P.S. Example:
In normal situation:

Before cursor on the picture

After cursor on the picture

In my situation:

After cursor on the picture

I have no idea, but if you explain how you added those new playable factions, perhaps somebody will post what you have missed.

You are working with the files, not the databases, so I guess the options should be an event file, .sct in the events folder.

If you are working with .sct file for modding I can hardly help. If you are using a .xls database, I will need the files that are related to the non working option.

Sorry, but why?


The .xls and the .sct are not the same contents in a different file format?

Could you post ;

Opt_ANA_RaiseMoney.png


Mainlog after processing the turn you did encounter this issue

Factions Folder in GameData if you mod anything on it.

Are you modding the localstring_RUS in csv format or modding in xls. format and then saving as .csv ?
I do ask because there are a lot of ''isolated'' NULL cells that should not be there

It is a lot easier to compare/search/change format in xls files for troubleshooting purpose.

You mainlog is clean but a syntax error with SelectFaction Command.
I seen nothing wrong in your files.

Is there a way to download your mod in order to test the issue ingame ?

The pictures (.png) you are using for ANA options are 8 bits Color Depth.
They must be 32 bits color depth.
I have converted them from 8 to 32 for testing and it works fine.
