Mission Editor (Media Files)

[JG4_Deciman]

Hi

 

Whenever adding media files (audio in this case)

browsing from within the editor

selecting the file on disc

and pressing OK

 

will result in the following after saving

(.mission)

 

              MCU_TR_Media
              {
...                Config = "multiplayer\dogfight\jg4\schiessbahn2\s2-scharfer_schuss.ogg";
...

             }
              

(.list)

filename="multiplayer\dogfight\jg4\schiessbahn2\s2-scharfer_schuss.ogg","dbcc7e90"

 

and as a final result

whoever tries to load that mission (dServer will load and start it without any error)

gets the following error...

#10016: Unable to save file to disc.

 

Workaround:

Open the .mission with a text editor

replace the line with

                Config = "multiplayer/dogfight/jg4/schiessbahn2/s2-scharfer_schuss.ogg";

(so all backslashes are replaced by slashes)

and save.

 

Next load the modded file with mission editor again (takes a while)

and save again

 

.list now shows

filename="multiplayer/dogfight/jg4/schiessbahn2/s2-scharfer_schuss.ogg","dbcc7e90"

(so no backslashes any more, but slashes)

 

Short workaround could be editing the .list only

but saving the mission again will result in a .list containing slashes again.

 

I hardly can imagine that this is a wanted feature,

and I noticed it for the first time when creating missions for RiseOfFlight...

I noticed the same problem and addition to that the editor includes files from Media translators that are set to "stop media" or "movie post effect" if there is something in the file path.
