UT3 Update 3

I got the hyperlink stuff working I hope. It was working on my wotgreal dev machine, so I was not seeing why it was failing (this is the machine that can't run UT3, so I had the scripts in a different dir (my preferences were not set up the same as a box with UT3 installed)). Once I got this figured out, then it all made sense and started working. Hopefully this will get everyone up and running (barring a better compile interface, still working on that)

The dev version has been updated accordingly.

Thanks Harmeister!

I guess the one feature I'ld really like to see implemented for UT3 is support for Interfaces. At the moment the Open Class... dialog doesn't show them, they don't get added to the class hierarchy and you can't follow links to them.

I also seem to experiencing a number of bugs which are probably due to using Vista, don't know if you're supporting Vista though. They're not a huge bother really.

Thank you Harmeister! It's great that you took the time to update this for UT3, much appreciated.

I just added interfaces to the tree. I was collecting information about them, I am not sure why I wasn't showing them in the tree (I'm sure there will be a bug soon about that). But until I know what that is, they will show up in the "Open by name" dialog as well as in the tree.

As for the Vista related things, I'm working on them. I don't officially support vista yet...

Is the UT3 game type from the dropdown menu supposed to automatically work or are we supposed to make the changes ourselves? Because some directories seem wrong and I'm not getting the package/class tree. It seems that the compiler is still searching for EditPackages in the ini file instead of ModPackages....what's going on?

you will need to tweak some of the directories yourself (like where the code was exported).

The compiler stuff is still not 100% functional yet. I will be working on that part today.

I have switched the editpackages stuff to use modpackages, but I don't really have a way to test to see if it's working. Can someone use the current dev build to see if this works properly yet? (might still have issues with parsing the log name, not sure)

Looks like it's working, using ut3.exe, but the Compile Results window is giving a boatload of errors. You can use UT3.Com, to get similar output to the old UCC's, and you can capture it. (People have setup Context and other editors to do so, I think)
I don't get any sort of window popping up or anything to alert that it is actually compiling, and wouldn't have known it was doing anything at all if I hadn't opened Taskmanager and watched it.

It'd be great if there was a way to specify a Logs folder, which would probably default to ..\My Games\UT3\UTGame\Logs or whatever it is.
Other than that, it seems to be working. ProtectedPackages still aren't showing as protected, and everynow and then my source folder gets reverted to c:\program files\unreal tournament 3\ which breaks everything until i fix it. Other than those, it's looking nice. :)

(another tip, you could set the "User.INI" field to look for "uteditor.ini" if the architecture is ue3)

All log files go into the Logs folder. To get anything to output results to a log file, use the command line -log=WhateverYouWantToNameIt.log

This goes for ut3.exe, make, server, etc.

I just installed 3.005 and immediately unzipped the latest dev version files over the top of the 3.005 build (without ever starting WOTgreal). On startup of WOTgreal for the first time, and now every time I run WOTgreal Setup Wizard, I get an error message that reads:

Method ‘GetWOTgrealSystemList’ not result any value.
Source position: 3,72

This leads to the WOTgreal Setup Wizard not having any items in the Pre-Configured Game Types drop down list. Any ideas on why I might be seeing this?

Thanks!

Yes. During the upgrade from 3.005 to 3.006 there was a change in one of the components used by the wizards. I fixed mine locally, but haven't put it in the zip file yet.

Thanks for the interface fix Harmeister.

I've noticed that the new tooltip syntax is breaking WOTgreal's parsing of variables. For those who don't know you can now specify tooltips for editor-settable variables with the following syntax:

var() int TeamNum<Tooltip=Specifies which team owns this foo, which allows that team to bar it>;

Do you know when the dev zip will get the game types back in, especially for UT3?
# Posted By Adrian Walker | 2/5/08 2:15 PM
The current zip should have the gametypes in it already When you unzip everything, does it not add them? (The UT3 one will take a little bit of configuration on your end.

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to make changes for UT3.

I've tried installing the development build, and just thought i'd give you my experience in case it helps. The package tree is correctly populated as far as I could tell, but compiling still seems to be a bit funny. It will only work if I choose not to modify the editPackages (which makes sense, since it doesn't exist any more). If I choose to modify editPackages, nothing seems to happen and the UTEngine.ini file remains unchanged, and ut3.exe is not spawned.

Also the logging is quite broken, I tried redirecting the log file via command line settings:
-silent -log="c:\program files\unreal tournament 3\System\ucc.log" to try and fool the ide, but it seems that ut3.exe doesn't like either spaces, or " in the log file name.

Anyway, i'm looking forward to the next update :)
