Display Errors?

[Gil Galvanti 0]

Hey,

In ArmA 1, whenever there was an error in a sqf or sqs file, it would display it in the top left corner in game when it came across it. It seems in ArmA 2, it doesn't say anything, but instead, the script just stops working. This is annoying, as it takes a while to figure out what the error was and where it is in the code. Is there any way to display errors or anywhere that they are recorded/shown in ArmA 2?

I've been looking for it too... Really tedious to look through every single row to se if you missed a semicolon or something.

Put the script jump.sqs in the mission editing folder.

Yes.... no errors is very annoying!

But you can read all errors in the arma.rpt file... you can find it in /user/username/appdata(invisible)/local/arma2 (on vista). This is the ArmA-Log-File

Hmm.. is the path different in different countries? Mine is in My Documents, not Application data..

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\ArmA 2

Its the Path to the Temp folder with arma.rpt , cache etc...

In MyDocuments\ArmA2 Other Profiles\Name\ you can find your "work" folder with editor missions , tpls, faces, etc

If you set your ArmA2 profiles directory to the ArmA2 directory, then the MPmissionscache, and arma.rpt and of course your profiles are all stored there.
