The ascent Source code doesn't work...

[Jewel]

I got

Morpher.cpp
..\src\GossipScripts\Morpher.cpp(46) : warning C4101: 'Menu' : unreferenced local variable
Warper.cpp
..\src\GossipScripts\Warper.cpp(58) : warning C4101: 'Menu' : unreferenced local variable

You know why?

[Mr. Sandman]

forgive me for being retarded, but i cant figure this out for the life of me....

I'm not a "noob" when it comes to computing, in fact, im CompTIA A+ Cert.... i just dont think your "tutorial" is very in-depth to those who have never programmed in c++ (including myself).

3) Rename the TeleporterItem.cpp to Warper.cpp and extract it to \trunk\src\scripts\src\GossipScripts

im assuming, when you say "Extract" to copy the file itself from the folder extracted from the archive to \trunk\src\scripts\src\GossipScripts.... that, i can do...

4) Add warper to setup.cpp, setup.h and makefile.

Where or how, exactally, am i supposed to do this? Just type "Warper" in any line of code?

5) Go to projects folder and find GossipScripts2008. Right-click on the file and hit edit. Scroll down to the end of the file and add path to the warper. Save & close.

ok, i found that, but if i right click it, i have no "edit" option... double-clicking brings up C++, but theres nothing to "Scroll down" to add the path of anything... no lines of code...

6) Open scripts2008 and compile.

again, confused, since i have no idea how to use any programming software. (Yes, i did get Microsoft's c++ software from your link, but i have absolutely no idea how to use it....)

7) If you want to change the entry of warper, open Warper.cpp and scroll down to the end, until you see "mgr->register_item_gossip_script(65001,gs);" Change the number and compile.

now, this, i understand just fine, i think... when you say "Entry of warper" i assume you mean the in-game model... or the .npc spawn id....

[Davve]

No wait i start to get this but you should read jargs thread first to get all stuff

[internethero]

4) Add warper to setup.cpp, setup.h and makefile.

Wow this is confusing! How do you do this???? How do you combine these files? What do you make the file into? What are you using to "makefile"???

[Mr. Sandman]

this is exactally what i was talking about... i cant imagine anyone can understand these instructions, with the way they are worded and without any sort of diagram or screenshots...

this tut = phail

[Tennisbro14]

by "add warper to setup.cpp etc." this is what I did: I opened the files with notepad and where I saw the other .cpp files, I simply copied the code and renamed it to warper.cpp and thats how you "add" warper.cpp to the files... but when you compile scripts2008, it said 0 succeeded and 5 failed... it gave me fatal errors because I need a thing called zlib.h and I need to have it in /trunk/src/ascent-world/ but I dont... does anyone have it?

im pretty sure (and correct me if im wrong) that anything involving /trunk/src is from the SVN... im not too sure about this, but, hey, its better than the information IN THIS TUTORIAL!!!

[marcus101]

how to make a portable teleporter pls any1 tell ?

[spike388]

Ok. Seriously people, I have searched for 2 days now on how to compile a warpnpc and no one has given a clear understanding how to do so. I get errors when compiling.

Someone please be little more detailed and how doing so cause that 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. your done is bull crap and its not helping people.

It's not bull crap and it does help people. I've explained everything so everyone (well, almost everyone) understands it. Maybe you should use a little more time on this instead flaming me just because you didn't succeed on first try.

This guide is meant for "advanced users", however, I've tried to make this as simple as I can.

It ain't my problem if you're too shnizzleing dumb to understand any of it.

Well if your a "Advanced user" and you wrote a "Advanced user" tutorial, then you should be able to write a "Noob Tutorial" for "Noob users". Would that be so hard to just explain in more detail the steps taken? I mean, we were all noobs at one time in are internet lives... including you.

If your writing a tutorial to help people why would you say "It ain't my problem if you're too shnizzleing dumb to understand any of it." if you not willing to help people?

The problem is your tutorial for "Advanced users" is too vague to understand properly... yes, it's probably a good tutorial for the "Advanced user club" but hey us noobs need more explanation please. lol

Is this step and the keyword "makefile" a linux compile command?
I googled makefile and for windows users "nmake" would be the command to use in command prompt but what is the correct format to combine the two files?
I found this IBM nmake

if anyone knows what is the corrrect format to type in the cmd prompt?

nmake XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXX sorry I need a little more explanation but am I on the right track?

4) Add Warper to setup.cpp, setup.h and makefile. (Just see how the other names are there)

[Golepa]

I used to help people more than you will ever do.

Why I didn't explain everything in detail, is because I want people to look up stuff and try them on their own. People tends to forget this type of things easily if you give them everything on a silver plate. I want them to use their time on the matter (can be anything) so they don't have to be dependent on guides all the time.

If I put more details, everyone would mess up once and they immediately reply how I suck at writing guide, they don't understand it etc.

It's kind of hard to explain what I mean, but hopefully you get my point.

A picture tells more than a thousand words, so maybe I put some pikkies.

lol, I am the one and probably allot of other people too that need the help. This isn't my tutorial it's your tutorial.

What's the point of starting a thread "guide" if you won't guide people through the guide and process?

If I put more details, everyone would mess up once and they immediately reply how I suck at writing guide, they don't understand it etc.

Well mmmk... well we don't understand this one either.

It's kind of hard to explain what I mean, but hopefully you get my point.

I can see that it's hard for you to explain mostly everything you've written so far. Hopefully the point can be brought out more clearly.

That would be awesome!!! Please, please do this.

[spike388]

Ok. I followed every step stated... your still not being CLEAR....

Why is this a issue?
:\Ascent Code\trunk\src\ascent-world\StdAfx.h(51) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'zlib.h': No such file or directory

[spearman360]

Thanks for using your Golepa-ness and making this guide

You're missing a file. I don't know why, though, but that's not my fault.

[internethero]

Awesome thank you for adding those pictures on the guide... made things allot easier for me! Thank you so much!
