No there is not.
SpoilerVine arrows are a bit finnicky and might not work on every surface. They should work on most brick and stone but some of the textures aren't set up correctly.

Kingsal I don't have any mods it was the brightness and gamma settings. I adjusted those and all is good.
Cool yeah that's my bad, the image I'm using on the screen is just too bright. Thats good to know, thanks. Out of curiosity what was your gamma and brightness set to before?
-
Could be- I am still messing with the UI elements but if the brightness is cranked really high it might blow out that background image too much. Its something I can fix down the road.

I'm lost for some reason I can't get past the difficulty screen there is no start the mission icon?
Ok it was invisible I found by blindly clicking in lower right portion of screen. I think this is because of my video settings?
Hm can you send me your user config file? Are you using any mods or changing the core files in any way?

Done.
@nbohr1moreWould you mind updating this on the server? Its a fairly bad bug, I've updated the OP but here is the link to the new pk4:

Yeah there should have been an invisible wall brush to prevent this.
Or even better in terms of UX, a little secret inside the room.
Yeah Ill fix this in an update, I swear I put a clip brush there but I guess not

I havent tried in 2.11 yet but I will.
Just an update on this. For now I think I fixed it by:
- Addressing most of the warning in the log above. Outside common errors like some missing textures and such that are part of the core.
- Made sure to give my parallel lights "parallelSky " "1" spawnarg.
- Deleted my .aas files and rebuilt them
- Dmapped the entire thing
Right now I am not getting the load error . It's a very hard problem to nail down because the console isn't giving a specific script name that it's getting hung up on (if that is even the issue similar to Amadeus's problem) AND I am actively working on the mission, creating new errors, fixing other broken things. ect.
Its definitely something I fear will pop back up in beta testing though- 1

I am quiet confused.
I took my gear and sneak past the city watch, used the elevator, got up to the window where the music comes. But the room is empty, only a statue and a globe. I can't get the music off.
So far I liked the city area with its verticals and the home of the protagonist.
The room is suppose to be inaccessible, I think you got up somewhere I didn't intent for players to get to.
Light hint:SpoilerJust head back down to street level and explore the area just after the electric bridge, where your neighbor's house is.
Stong hint:SpoilerGo back down from where you are. After the electric bridge while facing the large metal gate, , make a right, go past the tree, then take a left and get behind your neighbors building. Turn off all the electric boxes. There are four.

Is that a crash to desktop without error?
Yeah, it loads about 80 percent there and crashes. Its hard to diagnose because I havent touched the mission in a while and afaik, I havent added anything new to it in a while. This might just be the first time Ive noticed the crash and its just been hiding in the mission.

The only survivor doesn't even react that I climbed up to him, I wish we could've left him some food at least.
Thanks for playing and Im glad you went loud, that was the intention or at least to tease players into killing some zombies.. Also I hear ya on the survivor, I had plans to give him some vocal lines and maybe some interactivity but I ran out of time. Maybe someday Ill go back in and update this mission

Hmm okay I got the log, I dont see anything out of the ordinary but I also don't know what to look for really. It crashes about when it looks like it should finish loading. qconsole.log

Im experiencing a crash on loading quick saves in my work in progress FM.
What are steps for diagnosing this and figuring out what is causing that crash?
Thanks very much

This map, gatehouse_final.map, was based on the very first mission I ever put together back in 2014. It was originally suppose to be part of Volta 1, but didn't make the cut.
Here it is now, refurbished, re-worked, graphics set to HIGH, and....
Wait...
What is that...
It's the music again... ohhh the music!- 16

In TDM 2.12, some player footstep sound shaders were changed. That's something you might want to check as well.
Good to know, I'll investigate. Thanks

Hello! I am going through the (painful) process of detaching some custom stuff I've made over the years from the base mod so I am not replacing so many tdm_ core files in my FMs.
I'll be posting updates in here as I know a few people have used custom volta stuff in their missions.
@Goldwell @Amadeus @Wellingtoncrab
If you are using CUSTOM VOLTA arrows please replace this file: tdm_weapon_arrow.script
- Ive updated this script with core mod changes
- The only thing that's being replaced is:ARROW_ZOOMDELAY 3 // Shortened time from 6 to 3 secondsIf you want to use the default 6 second zoom delay, just delete this file and remove it from your custom_scripts.script.
If anyone knows a way I can change ARROW_ZOOMDELAY without overriding the entire file, please let me know asap.
Thanks everyone

The mission is great, like all your works. My personal issue was that after dying and losing 30-40 minutes of progress for the third time, I gave up.
Yeah. Maybe I'll update the mission someday if we ever get something like a "mission modifiers" feature. I have some ideas of how I could do it the non-fancy way with items or something. I don't know, but Volta missions will not have this feature

I know an awesome way to restrict saves, which works in every mission: Just save when and where you want to.
Well you are in luck!
Here is a list of other missions with normal save options : https://www.thedarkmod.com/missions/
***
Also for people who want to play this mission and are getting discouraged by the restriction, its only on Expert. I wish there was a way to make it a check box option, but I couldn't find a solution with the time I had.
@STiFUI like all your suggestions. A modifier would be a really cool solve for this problem. -

"player1_weapon" entity usually has two attachments: so-called aimer, and arrow.
In this crashdump, the aimer is here, but arrow attachment is dead: it was deleted beforehand, without clearing the attachment reference. And since this code does not check e for NULL, it calls a method on NULL object, which certainly crashes.
I'll of course add a check for NULL here, but it would be interesting to understand what kills arrow attachment, and why this problem does not happen every time.
UPDATE: Since everyone reported the arrow to be missing just before the crash, I suppose the real issue is that arrow entity is occasionally lost...
Sorry if this was already reported, but Ive experienced pulling back the bow and the arrow model just disappearing. The bow will still be there, ill fire and the projectile will still launch, but not arrow on the view model. Strangely it doesn't always crash when that happens.
This was definitely already mentioned Just confirming the arrow disappearing, shooting, but then not crashing, which is odd.
EDIT: Ill start attaching the debugger. I have lots of guards in the mission but none of them are using the urinate animation. Does it happen randomly somewhere in the code? I can just try adding 50 guards lol. -

Yes - that's what I found (it's all in the bug report). There are 2 test maps, one with the a single entity and one with them divided. In the one with the divided entities it works properly.
Sorry misread, thought this was post asking why that was happening. Thanks for logging it.

I did an update from an installation of Hazzard pay and it worked fine. Maybe @desinloaded a save made in the previous version?
Btw. I don't remember this new objective background paper last time I played. The font seems too large for this or something:
Original looks fine:
Its a custom background. Its just a bug I never fixed and I don't plan on fixing.
-
Do you have a single water entity behind those two pieces of glass? If so you need to divide them or the engine will consider everything in between as water and therefore douse your torches.
-
I've updated this mission to be compatible with user mods.
@nbohr1moreSorry to bother you again, but would you mind updated the pk4 for this mission? It should work fine now.

Okay. Im gonna actually make these updates in the hazard pay thread and make sure everything is working.

Perhaps because you have too many proguards and they pee too much.
I think the core parts for it to trigger is when player switches weapons and then shoots bow at the same time when one of these guards perform "urinate" animation.
Maybe we should try to make a test map with horde of these guys, making sure they can run "urinate" animation.
By the way, does it has some condition? I can't find any references to this animation in def files, but I think there should be some condition...Interesting... hmm. As far as I know that animation is only called by a path_anim or path_cycleanim entity in a map or maybe by an authors custom script. I have seen it in missions before, so I know its been used.
It could be buried deep somewhere in the AI's core code though, which would be... an odd choice to say the least.
