Thanks for the advice! 😸😸 My uca2post version is not showing those warnings 🤔🤔 how can I be sure that I fixed then properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 From Jay: There are multiple animal checker programs. The lines above the "Results From Configuration Checking" line are from the checkztd program. The lines below the "Results From Configuration Checking" line are from the uca2post program. The "Results From Configuration Checking" line shows which uca2post version was used for the checking. The checkztd program can be downloaded from Zookeeper's Lounge: http://www.lunamanar.com/zklounge/viewtopic.php?p=36985#p36985 The "*** Warning: animals/0fdfe088/m/2surfsic/2surfsic.ani is not in ztd." is because 0FDFE088.uca has "surface_2_sick = 2surfsic" in the [m/Animations] section but ZwTiktaalik.ztd does not have an animals/0fdfe088/m/2surfsic folder (or an animals/0fdfe088/y/2surfsic folder). Since 0FDFE088.uca is using "under2surfsic = usurfsic", maybe "surface_2_sick = 2surfsic" should be changed to ""surface_2_sick = surfsick". (And, for consistency, "shadow2surfsic = s2subsic" could be changed to "shadow2surfsic = ssurfsic".) Another possibility is to remove both "f = fPlay(surface_2_sick)" lines, "f = fPlayReverse(surface_2_sick)" line, "surface_2_sick = 2surfsic" line, "under2surfsic = usurfsic" line, and "shadow2surfsic = s2subsic" line. Of those two approaches, the second approach might be the better approach. Since ZwTiktaalik.ztd does not have 2surfsic folders, ZT would skip those lines anyway. The other Warnings were added to the September 28, 2022 version of uca2post. Today, I uploaded that version to Zookeeper's Lounge: http://www.lunamanar.com/zklounge/viewtopic.php?p=36982#p36982 To get rid of "*** Warning: Has fDustBall and sound, but no 'dustball=' sound setting.", you can add the following lines to the [Sounds] section: dustball = animals/marlin/surfeat.wav dustball = 800 As for any Warning, it is up to you if you want to make changes to get rid of the Warnings. That is especially true for "No fPlay... type of line" Warnings. With the current uca2post version, all ZT's animals and nearly all user made animals will give "No fPlay... type of line" Warnings. But that is the cause of having a zookeeper sometimes repeatedly shoot darts at an escaped animal without the animal turning into a crate. So I felt it was worthwhile to flag, even though the problem rarely occurs for escaped animals. And even when the problem occurs, it is not a big deal, since picking up the escaped animal and putting it back down will cause it to turn into a crate. For this particular animal, the problem lines would never be triggered anyway. But if you want to get rid of the Warnings, you want every "fPlayTime" line to have a "fPlay", "fPlayWithSound", "fPlayPingPong",or "fPlayReverse" line immediately before it and have a "fPlay", "fPlayWithSound", "fPlayPingPong", "fPlayReverse", or "fDie" line immediately after it. In particular, for this animal you would change the [BehaviorSet\bcgland], [BehaviorSet\bcgwater], [BehaviorSet\bcgsurf], and [BehaviorSet\bcgsub] sections to look like the following: [BehaviorSet\bcgland] f = fPlay(idle) f = fPlayTime(idle,2) f = fPlay(idle) [BehaviorSet\bcgwater] f = fPlay(surfidle) f = fPlayTime(surfidle,2) f = fPlay(surfidle) [BehaviorSet\bcgsurf] f = fPlay(surfidle) f = fPlayTime(surfidle,2) f = fPlay(surfidle) [BehaviorSet\bcgsub] f = fPlay(subidle) f = fPlayTime(subidle,2) f = fPlay(subidle) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I wrote before, Toadally Batrocious pack is gonna be released next weekend before Halloween 🎃🎃 It is already finished and is now under revision for any fix needed... BUT I haven't finished Bonus Items on time 😿😿 I'll keep them for my ancient seas pack which will include the following: Spoiler 🦈🦈 - Megalodon - Ginsu Shark - Edestus - Helicoprion - Cladoselache - Hybodus - Onchopristis - Ptychodus - Stethacanthus and/or Xenacanthus - If I manage to modify models, also Dracopristis and other less known sharks - Maybe, other huge fish that are no sharks, like Leedsichthys or Xiphactinus But first, M.E.O.W. is gonna recieve an update! After noticing that some animations were lost in the latest version, I decided to rework them as suggested by Hawkkeye... If you already got it, stay tuned for the newest version of M.E.O.W. And remember! If you wanna try Toadally Batrocious, you should also get Borsato's ui99ztd + LANG--ZBorsato.dll Hack as well! If you don't have it yet and wanna know how it works, you may find it here: Have a nice and spooky week! 👻👻 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Designer)Zarawatto Posted October 31, 2022 Author Share Posted October 31, 2022 News about Amphibians Pack: I promised it to be ready for Halloween (today). It is already finished and I got feedback in order to fix bugs it has. I started works immediatly, but last week I went through several activities that consumed most of my time (including some food poisoning that took me two nights of full running to bath 😿😿). The pack is gonna be kinda belated, but I'm better now and I expect to release it for next weekend. Sorry for keep you waiting too much! Have a nice and spooky Halloween 🎃🎃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Designer)Zarawatto Posted November 7, 2022 Author Share Posted November 7, 2022 It is finally here! I lost my work, my family and a leg, but It's already finished! Spoiler Don't worry... That's just a silly bad joke to add dramatic factor! Let me, FINALLY introduce you to: Toadally Batrocious Land Invaders Now available in the link at my signature! 𓆏𓆏𓆏𓆏 ~~ Content List ~~ Hynerpeton North America. Aquatic. Devonian. Ichthyostega North America. Aquatic. Devonian. Proterogyrinus North America. Coniferous Forest. Carboniferous. Eryops North America. Coniferous Forest. Carboniferous. Platyhystrix North America.

Early access animal. First release date: Oct 10th, 2022. -> Tiktaalik previous version must be erased from your /dlupdate folder before installing this pack <- Swimming Tadpoles Neutral exhibit & tank placeable scenery item! Now, several bonus items I didn't finished on time, not included in this pack: Foliage: Cooksonia Rhynia (No icon yet) Archaeopteris (No icon yet) Charnia I could not load them properly on Blender. If somebody knows about a path or tool that I could use to extract their graphics directly from ZT2, I'd be pretty grateful! If these items are finished, they will be added to the mini pack I'm planning which will include Pulmonoscorpius & Meganeura, both compatible with Proterogyrinus & Eryops. And about compatibility... Within the .zip file itself, you'll find a .txt which displays, between other things, the following: ~~ Compatibility Guide ~~ - Compatible with ZT CC -> Devonian Primordial Pond: Tiktaalik + Hynerpeton + Ichthyostega -> Carboniferous Ancient Woods: Proterogyrinus + Eryops + Khaydar's Arthropleura Upcoming items also compatible for this exhibit setup: Meganeura & Pulmonoscorpius. Stay tunned! -> Permian Lost Oasis: Platyhystrix + Diploceraspis + Uralerpeton -> Triassic Rocky Puddle Gerrothorax + Sclerothorax + Metoposaurus + Anaschisma -> Beelzebufo is compatible with Hawkkeye's Simosuchus, to be released soon! -> When using Arthropleura/Simosuchus for mixed exhibits, you should use water terrain instead of building a half-tank exhibit. Otherwise, Arthropleura/Simosuchus will have terrain compatibility issues! Spoiler Friendly reminder: You gonna need Borsato's ui99ztd + LANG--ZBorsato.dll Hack in order to see all animal eras properly! (Available in the link at his signature) If you don't have it yet and wanna know how it works, you may find it here: ~~ Credits ~~ Spoiler - All animals made using Demon Hunter's Huge Amphibians Pack, except for the following: - Tiktaalik made with HispaDesigns' base model. - Gerrothorax made with Philly's base model. - Proterogyrinus made with Alvin Abreu's base model. - Beelzebufo & Swimming Tadpoles made with Luca9108's base model. - Beelzebufo's sounds & calls token from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWJsMzAbjMY - All animations made by myself. - Texts sources quoted at the end of each animal's description.
