Alas, all hope is lost,

[bambi]

I cannot hack Hejhuka's brilliant mod.

Yes, I'm typing about Hejhuka's hardcore mod. It is an amazing multiplayer mod, that provides the best bot ai, I've seen, great dual akimbo weapons, fast multiplayer action, and new gametypes, and I can't get it to work,

WHy? because he had to make it called DeusEx.u. So, anyone who tries to connect to server, will have a DeusEx.u version mismatch. So I tried to change all the package names to different ones and what not, but its' beyond my scope.

Poor, Nobody! This mod needs to be on servers, its awesome, please fix it.

[Hanover Fist]

I miss 5 Colormadness server

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

The modification is embedded in DeusEx.u?

Pass me a copy of the required files and I see what I can do.

[bambi]

thanks nobbody!

it's not embedded in DeusEx.u. IT is deusex.u! good luck,

[~DJ~]

I thought of Hex editing and replacing all DeusEx to a suitable name.. but then I said 'meh.'

HOPE YOU WORK IT OUT NOBODY. ALSO HAVE TO DO WITH OTHER FILES I THINK AS WELL

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

So yeah.. I presumably ran against a tricky problem.
When renaming the mod and its internal dependency tree, I noticed the native binding of DeusEx.u to its DLL file..

I'll have to make a list of all native classes, followed by checking their code for differences to the original, trusting that there are no differences..
..A recompile might not be avoidable in the end..

[atrey65789]

Wait... So what are you trying to do exactly?

[Mastakilla]

The mod is normally just modified DeusEx.u, meaning if you host it player will get a version mismatch when they try to join unless they have the mod installed aswell, which would overwrite their original DeusEx.u and prevent them from joining any other server not using the mod, because they would get a version mismatch again. So they're trying to rename it so it can be hosted, without getting a version mismatch? Or something along those lines anyway

[atrey65789]

How bout tell your players that if you want to join, take the deusex.u file out of /system directory. lol

[~DJ~]

You can't run DX/DXMP if you take out DeusEx.u file out of System.

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

Wait... So what are you trying to do exactly?

I'm trying to make the DX Hardcore mod independent from the DeusEx common files.

Renaming this package will work I think (I simply renamed it to DeusExHardcore.u, and it works in UnrealEd, without any DeusExHardcore.dll

It might work in the editor, but I think it will crash when loading it with DeusEx.. UNLESS.. the dependency to the dll is NOT acquired by the filename but by an internal reference.. this needs to be figured out.

[Kalman11]

Idk, I'll try it afternoon
My UED loads DeusEx.u and DeusExHardcore.u too
I read about dlls, and it said the dll's name must mtach exactly to the package name, or it won't find it

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

I read about dlls, and it said the dll's name must mtach exactly to the package name, or it won't find it

I fear this too.. it worth to proof it though..

[Kalman11]

I think this article was about dlls, maybe I read that here (I can't check it now, I'm at school and it's blocked)

[James]

I suggest calling the final version of this lil project something like ArenaHardcore or HardcoreArena.

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

I'm fine with that but the package name itself needs to have the same length as DeusEx, otherwise changing the internal dependencies of the other packages will be tricky.
That's why I chose DXHCMP... or if the Arena is mandatory in your eyes.. HCARMP or DXHCAR or DXARHC

[Kalman11]

OMG, so long names lol
Simply DXHC

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

length(DXHC) != length(DeusEx)   ! ! !

[atrey65789]

There ya go... so we've come to a conclusion with the name! lol

[James]

DXHC for map names yeah, but what about the name of the actual mod? :O

Mind, DXHC is sorta different.

[atrey65789]

Is there anyway we can contact the ACTUAL mod creator and ask him?

[bambi]

does it work in multioplayer now?

[atrey65789]

I dont think so... Still tryin to find a way for it to work.

[atrey65789]

Wait... I got the stuff loaded up in Unrealed... now Is there anyway to change the multiplayer settings to where when you go on the server, everything ( UI, etc.) will be ran off of that Deusex.u file?

[~DJ~]

DeusEx;
ArenaX

GUISE?

[Kalman11]

Ok, so I tested it ingame and it gives me an error "Can't bind to native class DeusExHardcore.DeusExPlayer", then I tried to rename DeusEx.dll to DeusExHardcore.dll, but it says "Assertion failed: !GAutoRegister [File:D:\prj\Clean\Core\Src\UnObj.cpp] [Line:1322]"

[James]

DJ, Arena... X? Wow, Arena Xtreme / Ten / Ex is such an un-fitful name.

The name of the mod itself should be a nod to the originals but different so you can tell the 3 apart. Remember to keep it simple DXHCARXTRM10 proposers.

Try naming INI and INT file that name.

[Kalman11]

Not the INI or the INT files are the problem

FINE.. was proposing 'Ex' though!

..Kalman, DXHC doesn't fit DeusEx's characters. So there's no point to discuss that D:
