Deus Ex Alpha

I can't get SDK to work
Every time I try it brings up an error message saying;
Class layerPawn Member Player problem: Script=1492 C++=1488
History: UEditorEngine::InitEditor <- UEditorEngine::Init <- InitEngine
Anyone know how to help?

i would ask someone for a clean .ini
or clean some bugs out yourself


PM me the .ini and ill try to pick anything thats wrong with it

Have installed the lalstest patches etc (112 mp patch and got current version of sdk?

Just a though. The errors an be caused by a mod or files that have been modified in your dx/system folder by wither you or by applying new map mod ertc.

in my personal experience the best way to make the sdk work is to uninstall everything (deus ex-related fo course ) and then make a clean install of the latest version (112) both of dx and of the sdk

But...I'l lose all my DXMP maps all my mods

Make backup then. And if you use DX unnistaller in unninstalls only DX files, original ones.

I'll leave it...
...I'd probably be rubbish at maping anyway.

I exactly thought so one year ago... then opened SDK, tryed to make a room. Second one. Connected them. Added water...

I deleted all my DX files.
Now I'm about to reinstall them.
If it don't work...
...I'll just go and cry somewhere.

btw.
Where should I install SDK to to get the best results?

What you mean? Rephrase your question!

IT WORKS!!!
Thank you SO much for your help!!!
*Sits with huge grin*

OK. This is getting rediculous!
NOW it won't start because it needs something called 'glide2x.dll'.
*Crys*

glide2x.dll?
strange, it should find it if you're using it...
have you installed the sdk in the same folder as deus ex?
have you chosen direct3d as dx's video renderer?

I fine now.
SDK works and DX works and I just made my first map
Jus one problem left, it saves the map as an unreal Tournament map so I can't play it

always remind the sdk is a slightly modified unreal editor!
anyway, just rename your .unr file to .dx which is deus ex's map extension...

When you save map, for ex, map called 'bahroomz', it automatically shows 'bahroomz.unr' by default, you just change it to 'bahroomz.dx' and thats all! If you already have the map just rename it to same with .dx extension.

didnt u read my post or r u trying to raise your post count by double posting things? (j/k )

btw, THIS IS MY 100TH POST! WOW

Wrong topic posting, bro, sorry.

Thanks very much, but I figured how to do that when my internet just 'went' yesterday, lotsa time to practice and experiment. It's great. In a few weeks I'll be quite good at this.

Thanks again very much for all of your help

btw. Anyone know any good sites for tutorials on how to use SDK?
I've already started my first 'real' map. It's gonna be good.

i recomend constructor

Tack isn't bad too.

tacks is better if you ask me

I see that UC has 'fog' tutorial (how to create for was a secret for me untill Ded told me).
And imo UC is probably mostly for newbies.

i dont use tuts anymore....ive been mapping for about a year now
