Addon Builder no longer wraps sqf files ?

[Igitur 43]

Hi all,

 

I want to release an update of my HCC mod, but I'm experiencing serious troubles here.

 

I'm using the exact same pattern as version 1.2 but, while the config.cpp is properly binarized (built successful), the addon wont hook my boot script once ingame. I downloaded my own mod from steam to be sure, un-pbo'ed it and repacked the whole thing to check whether that would work, to no avail.

 

The addon structure :

 

     x MySourceFolder

                                 x MyAddon'sName

                                                               x $PBOPREFIX$

                                                               x boot.sqf

                                                               x config.cpp

                                                               x afewotherscripts.sqf

                                                               x init.sqf

 

The addon header :

class CfgPatches
{
	class MyAddon
	{
		projectName = "MyAddon'sName";
		version = "A3.1.3.0";
		author = "Igitur";
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		units[] = {};
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_UI_F","A3_Dubbing_Radio_F"};
	};
};
class cfgFunctions
{
	class MyFunction	{
		class addon_MyAddon
		{
			class init
			{
				file = "MyAddon'sName\boot.sqf";
				postInit = 1;
			};
		};
	};
};

In the addon builder :

 

     x Source path : MySourceFolder

     x Destination path : SteamApps\common\Arma3\@MyAddon'sName\Addons

 

Built successful when I pack but I got a "boot.sqf file not found" message once in game. I notice that some empty  "myaddon'sname" files  (lowercase) are created randomly on my C drive instead.

 

I also tried with CBA's extended EH, to no avail.

 

Please help guys, i'm lost in wonderment here and i'd like to release this update before I go abroad for 2 weeks.

 

 

Thx a lot !

 

 

- Edit : After un-pboing (?) my pbo, I'm left with just the config.bin. So it looks like all sqf files got lost in the process.

Open Addon-Builder and go to Options.

Add *.sqf; to 'List of Files to copy directly'.

Thank you for your reply, Chief.

 

Unfortunately, that wont work. I've tried with a semicolon, a comma, and nothing. I've tried to put the suffix in the Addon prefix field as well, and simplified the addon's name to the simplest possible tag (HCC). Nothing works.

 

When you have a little time, would you mind trying to pack a sqf file with the method above ? Sorry for asking, but I'd like to know whether it's me or that goddamn tool that needs a heavy tweak !

It always worked fine for me, and it still does.

 

Try using this as 'List of files to copy directly':

*.pac;*.paa;*.sqf;*.sqs;*.bikb;*.fsm;*.wss;*.ogg;*.wav;*.fxy;*.csv;*.html;*.lip;*.txt;*.wrp;*.bisurf;*.xml;*.hqf;*.rtm;*.rvmat;*.shp;

Here's an image what it should look like:

(You don't need to add the exact same data-types, but at least .sqf)

 

 

 

Here's mine:

*pac;*.paa;*.rtm;*.sqf;*.sqm;*.sqs;*.bikb;*.fsm;*.wss;*.ogg;*.wav;*.html;*.txt;*.wrp;*.bisurf;*.rvmat;*.hpp;*.ext;*.jpg;*.fxy;*.h;

Yeah it used to work fine for me too so far, that's why i'm puzzled today :confused: .

 

I have copy/pasted your line of files in the proper field, with no result. I'll have to investigate further when i'm back from abroad.

 

 

Thanks a lot for your time !

 

 

 

- Edit :  Hey, I finally got it ! It looks like I mixed my addon's class and name in the function init file...
