Your legend should be beneath the "Name=" slot in the Script.TXT file. if that doesn't work, reply to this message (Reply anyway) IP: Logged
traider28 Junior Member Posts: 8 From:kentucky Registered: May 2002	posted 05-10-2002 04:35 PM I tried this in my script and english txt and it worked great. what is the level called Lara's Mansion or Harrop Manor.which legend are you using Lara's mansion,Surrey,England or Harrop Manor,England. I'm confused about that. I can help you get it working if I knew exactly what ones you are going to use.Do you have two levels?Also, you already have a program to do the same as easylife,it is the script.bat file but you need to edit it to get it to work.Go to your script.bat file and right click and select edit and type this in the file exactly as it is here script script.txt copy script.dat ..\ copy english.dat ..\ del script.dat del english.dat del strings.h your file extensions on your strings file may be different than mine so what ever it is then put it where the (h) is, if different [This message has been edited by traider28 (edited 05-10-2002).] [This message has been edited by traider28 (edited 05-10-2002).] IP: Logged

Registered: May 2001	posted 05-10-2002 05:22 PM If tomb4.exe won't launch then the problem may be the OTHER levels in your script file. Check that there are no other levels in your script file which have a legend which is not one of the two specified in the English.txt file. To find out where the bug is happening, make ALL the legends the same in the script.txt file and BOTH the legends the same in the English.txt file. Then you will know that it is not the Legend text which is causing the problem. If TR crashes during the level load (bar stops moving) then the problem is to do with the conversion of the script files. Check that your DAT files are definitely updating when you run Easylife. Remember that it may be nothing to do with your legend entries, it could be a different part of the script or the way you are outputting your levels. If you get nowhere, do not despair. Take a fresh copy of tut1 example supplied by Core and test that it is working. Then change the legend (just one letter, like replacing the first letter with X) in both the English and Script files. Run Easylife, and see whether the X appears in your legend. If it did, then you know that it is not how you are changing the legend but something else. It's all a matter of elimination and a little bit of praying.. Good luck. WBM IP: Logged
dhama Member Posts: 1603 From:Tibet Registered: Apr 2001	posted 05-11-2002 01:33 AM If ever you need to change anything in your script file, do it one step at a time and then test, then do the next step and test again; it's so much easier to spot errors this way. Hey there WBM mate, how's the level coming along? IP: Logged
deviant Member Posts: 63 From:u.k. Registered: Jan 2001	posted 05-11-2002 02:46 AM Well, thanx for the advice guys....erm all a bit confusing tho!! Will try changing just one letter and running easylife TRaider28 the name is Harrop Manor, replacing Angkor Watt as level name, 'Harrop Manor, England' replaces 'Cambodia, 1984' this script problem im having, would this explain why after addig roof key from CITY to SETTOMB, and adding its script line [works fine key is now 'roof key' not 'load'] but when i try to rename it 'silver' key [already in script - by the way] it still stays as roof key??

traider28 Junior Member Posts: 8 From:kentucky Registered: May 2002	posted 05-11-2002 12:58 PM well that is the one I used in my scripts and it worked.If you are replacing Angkor Wat,I still see in your english.txt.I would start with fresh script and english.txt,maybe that will help you.But like I said before it worked on mine.
