First of all, I moved your post (it has nothing to do with Rebellion Reloaded, sorry).

 

Second of all, I must be so sleepy... but I don't understand most of what you said; could you rephrase your question please?

[ElvisMiggell]

Nope, as usual, when it comes to anything technical i'm well and truly stumped, off the board, confuzzled etc etc.

I think I understand the process you went through now.. but I still can't grasp the problem? *yawn*

Errm, I just used Resource Hacker to create the name-length patch. The new cards were created just by using RebEd. Is that what you mean ?

[ElvisMiggell]

Igor are you ok? Or are you just suffering from a distinct lack of sleep?

If you are using the patch from this site you do not need resource hacker. Honestly I don't know what your process would have done.

 

Simply follow the readme from the patch and everything will work great.

 

A few things to check though:

 

If you are looking for changes in a previously saved game they will not appear; Any changes to settings will only be realized by starting a new game.

 

If your settings were saved in rebed when you had a different version of rebellion (i.e. saved them with 1.0 and then installed the 1.1 patch) then they will not appear. The version the files were saved in, and the version of rebellion iteself that you are using must match.

 

Someone please correct me if I am wrong about any of this; I was having problems a while ago and this seemed to work as the solution.

[ElvisMiggell]

i'm liking the quote. if i think, therfore i am, does that make me just a thought?

[the_mask]

Hmm I think there's light at the end of the tunnel

How long is your updated entry for Mon Mothma for example ? Resource Hacker displays a number at the bottom. For the cardspace I used 780 characters, for example.

[ElvisMiggell]

Aha, the Mask is on the task, all will be well!

[Elfboy]

Well thank you Elvis (never thought I would actually say that combination of words), it makes me feel edjumacated.

 

One question though: since you ARE in fact alive and well, why London? Did you get tired of the good old U.S. of A?

IMHO the text is too long for Rebellion.

 

Interesting problem Psycho

 

(And is the topic in the right forum now? I didn't think so?)

[ElvisMiggell]

Born in York in 1984, moved to London 1992. Reborn i should say. Aaaa-thank-you-very-much uh-huh-huh.

[the_mask]

I also think that >1,800 chars is too much, although I wouldn't have thought that the game gets mad this way.

 

I cannot tell you if the cardspace update works with 1.1, I never installed that, cause the desc said, it would only fix problems in multiplayer with different laguage versions. So I skipped that one

 

The MC80 seems to slow down many computers, I'll have to work on this , but this is not related to your encyctext-problem. What processor/gfx card does your Notebook have ? Mine is Athlon 1,2 Ghz and it's only slightly un-fluent with more than one MC80

[ElvisMiggell]

Isn't RAM going to affect the performance as well? I'm no computer expert but hey.

[TK421]

Well, I used to shoot wamprats with one of my old P166 with 64MB RAM

 

I think your computer can handle Rebellion perfectly, perhaps the MC80 model is a little too heavy but that is not in question. I think you should shorten your text!

[ElvisMiggell]

TK421, what do you mean by the model being too heavy?

[TK421]

Easy. The model consists of more polygos so instead of ie. 100 pixels it is now 10000, so the original sys-reqs aren't relevant anymore. So it couls happen your computer is too slow to work with this.

[ElvisMiggell]

I get you know TK421, you meant polycount. I was sitting thinking HEAVY? What does he mean? But i get you now.

 

I tried changing some simple things, like adding to character descriptions last night and it worked fine. All i did was write in the text at the end of Lemelisk's description, clicked on compile. Saved and exited, and hey presto, all done. Easy as sneezing. I was really proud. My first atempt and all.

[the_mask]

Yup the Mc80 has about 48,000 polys, IIRC. I'll try to correct this sometime, along with some shading .

 

But you can also just use RebEd to edit your card descriptions and names, if you plan to stay in the limits I set with my cardspace update (every name as long as Kaya Andrimetrum and the description max 780 chars).

This way you wouldn't need Resource Hacker and maybe you wouldn't have this weird problem Pucho, whose source I still cannot see.

 

Elvis, congratulations
