Conscribe is a mod available on TESNexus. It's an OBSE plugin (install instructions included and very easy) and it writes a file called "conscribe.log" in your Oblivion directory that records everything that is printed on the Console during a play session.

The Obse log files are located in the Oblivion directory as well, I believe. They are several small text files that all start with "obse" and contain error messages and the like. They should open okay with Notepad, but you may have to tell Windows what you want to open them with.

Found this in obse.txt

Thing is I didn't realize nGCD required v18 obse so I was using v17, than i switched to v18 on my current character. So does this mean if I make a new character everything will be ok?

You should probably ask in the nGCD thread. Probably, the character was started with v17 and the switchover to v18 is screwing up some array data (or it's just blank because it never really got started) so everything is dropping to the minimums. There may be a way to re-initialize with your current character. Perhaps just loading your game without nGCD running, then saving, then adding nGCD again and loading the clean save will set everything right.

If the character is new, you could start over again as well.

Since OBSE hooks into the CS's script editor window to allow font selection... would it also be possible to disable the "you must close all open dialog boxes" message that comes up if you try to save the plugin while the script editor is open?

The CS already allows it in certain cases -- a script editor opened via the "..." button in the details window for a base object (such as an activator) is allowed to stay open when saving -- and it doesn't seem to cause any problems. That trick can be used to work around the problem, but it's awkward.

There's an ConstructionSet.ini setting for that. In [General], change bAllowUnsafeSave to 1.

Works perfectly. Thanks.

On an unrelated note, one other minor feature request: a function to check whether the system's mouse buttons are swapped (with the checkbox in the Windows control panel) so that scripts that want to look for a right-click (OnKeyDown 257) can look for a left-click (OnKeyDown 256) instead in that case. (The game correctly swaps the buttons for everything in the menus and gamemode, but DX scancodes seem to be unaffected.)

hey guys!
was wondering if anyone can shed a light on what these errors mean:
thanks!
-kuertee

battle fatigue and injuries:
notice that the error is on null command (0x0000) that points to the last EndIf before the End GameMode:
any ideas on why its throwing an error there?
by the way, it seems that all the code before that error works: e.g. numbers are correct for injuries, the debug PrintCs work, etc...

also notice that the error message is different to the current message: "...File: kuerteeBattleFatigueAndInjuries.esp Offset: 0x00003F47 Command: (0x0000)..."
i.e. instead of a blank line.
does this suggest a different and previous version of obse 18?

is it possible that array variables become corrupt when loading a saved-game?
can they become corrupt if:
1. load-order is changed between games?
2. the author (i.e. I) change the order the variables were declared?

thanks, guys!

I think variables are stored adjacent to each other and are accessed by an index. Pretty much like an Array, I guess.

Therefore, if you reorder, the variables in a script, you have to load a clean save, or, at least, a saved game where that particular script did not exist. Otherwise the load process will load the variables in the order they were when the game was saved.

I also found recently (the hard way) something that becomes obvious after-the-fact: if you reorder the variables in a script, you have to recompile all scripts that refer to those variables (like in a quest script used to store pseudo-global variables)

--------------------

And a new bug (?) report: a weird one from an old function:

Short description: OnKeyDown does not detect certain keys under certain conditions:

Some of these conditions:
If I keep pressing alt+N, OnKeyDown does not detect the H key (G is detected normally)
If I keep pressing alt+B, OnKeyDown does not detect the G key (H is detected normally)
Backslash, spacebar, arrow keys, instead of Alt also yields the same results

But Ctrl+N or Shift+N do not interfere: G key is detected by OnKeyDown

If you guys need more tests of sample code, let me know

As far as I am aware, no.


Yes, in fact. QQuix's got it right.

From what I remember, if you change the names of variables (which you'd do by changing the order) Oblivion will throw a 'Save Game is corrupted' error when you try to load a save game made with the unaltered version.

Wow! I just discovered GetWorldSpaceParentWorldSpace was already added, I didn't expect that one until v19.

thanks for the reply guys!
one more question: would the array variables for one mod be confused for another? i.e. if the user changes his load-order?

Not on purpose - the array IDs given to each array are independent of mod order, so you can have array 1 from your mod, array 2 from another mod, and array 3 from your mod again. There is a system in place to automatically remove unnecessary arrays - such as when your mod is removed. This shouldn't be a problem (and has been working since v17), but you can quickly check it by moving your mod in the load order and seeing if the arrays are still there.

Quick Question, does the RunOnRef flag for RunScriptLine work with User Functions in the same fashion as with normal objects/references?

From what I can see in the RunScriptLine code - I'd say yes, it'll just assume the temporary object used for the User Function (of course, I'm not 100% sure the User Function uses a temporary object, but the technique is used elsewhere, User Functions are Object scripts so they can be placed on a temporary object, and it would take a bit longer to look through the User Function code ;P)

I am not familiar with RunScriptLine, but user functions run on references by using "Reference.Call UserFunctionName [args]".
Everything works like if it were an object script, e.g. GetSelf, functions without explicit references (MoveTo MyXMarker).
Very usefull. May replace tokens for single frame actions.

As far as I could test it, it does not do a thing if directly attached to an object in CS.
The engine does not recognize a "Begin Function" block, I guess.

No, it does. Awhile back I tried attaching some function scripts to persistent activators in a remote cell (not to run them that way, just for use with GetFirstRefInCell/GetNextRef/GetScript so that other mods could "hook in" by adding scripted refs to the cell). Immediately after loading the game I'd get error messages in the console from those scripts running, once each, as plain object scripts (i.e. without the parameters they expected, hence the errors).

You are right, of course. Somehow, I missed it the first time around.

From a quick, additional test, it seems the function block works as a gamemode block.
All variables start zeroed or uninitialized, of course. Including argument variables.
I did not get any errors until I used functions that depended on them being initialized (like trying to access array elements without checking first).

I wonder if there is any good use for this.

I wouldn't recommend relying on it. The OBSE docs say "function scripts should never be attached to any object", and when I http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1038356&view=findpost&p=15089593 to Scruggsy, http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1038356&view=findpost&p=15090805 "the documentation is serious when it says this".

At a wild guess - you tried this before Beta 5, and it won't work with Beta 5...

Just wondered...when are you just going to make the next one OBSE 19?

At the earliest, after FOSE v2, I believe.

I got a bit of a strange request, why is it strange? Well mostly because I'm not sure if it'll fall under OBSE or if it's even something that can be detected. What I'm interested in is a function that returns true as long as the screen is fading from black to normal after certain transitions (fast travel, move between worldspaces, etc). Usually the screen is black for about 1 second before it goes back to normal (atleast it is for me).

P.S. Like I said, a bit of a strange request. And if someone has a better way to detect this short black flash please let me know. At the moment I'm just using a timer and some code to predict when it may occur, it isn't very accurate although. :shrug:

Minor bug: the HasName command returns false for map marker references, even though GetName and "%n" work properly for them.
