Hmmm, i can't see why, it should appear in the grocery store?, i can only think that you must be  copying over the backup file or summet, i can't see of this file being a problem as these files have been script edited so I'm sorry to hear this, regarding the gta iv qs I've sent you a pm, and nice display pic beavis and butthead ftw ;D

just triedit. Worked great, amazing mod. Where can you get algie's jacket after you buy it?

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Prosecute on December 05, 2011, 06:31:19 AM

Hi, Algies Jacket is from a side a mission, it MAY appear in the key items, the possition of the items in the shop determines if a item is taken into the key items or weapons slot, eg if i replaced the floweres with the newspapers i wouldn't get the papers as a weapon just a key item only, some of these key items don't appear also, you will either get them as a white square or just won't see them at all, me and mad will be releasing this method v soon if not within the next few days

Post by: Carlosvc92 on December 06, 2011, 12:11:15 PM

Hey guys, can you include the Detonator in the final version, I've been wanting to use it, I can already equip it on peds but they never throw it, they only drop it.

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Prosecute on December 06, 2011, 02:23:23 PM

Allright carlos, the touble with the detonators is that they don't explode, you can drop a infinite number of these on the floor once equipped, like the slingshot stones, i'm sure this is possible to make them explode using a script from the mission once a certain number is launched but i won't be looking into this sadly, me and mad will be releasing the lists soon enought for you and others to experiment with this yourselves.

Post by: Prosecute on December 22, 2011, 09:29:51 AM

Havn't tried this personally but the method is explained in umt go to section 4.3

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Prosecute on January 02, 2012, 05:49:41 AM

Good idea and I have tried this theory recently and indeed it does work, but it only works for Armoury Items (which are):

€–C   80 96 43   Fire Crackers
€—C   80 97 43   Slingshot
.˜C   00 98 43   Slingshot (Stone)
€˜C   80 98 43   Spudgun
.™C   00 99 43   Super Slingshot
€™C   80 99 43   Bottle Rockets
.šC   00 9A 43   Pack of Bottle Rockets
€šC   80 9A 43   Stink Bombs
.œC   00 9C 43   Carton of Eggs
.žC   00 9E 43   Can of Spuds
. C   00 A0 43   Newspapers
€ C   80 A0 43   Spray Paint
.¡C   00 A1 43   Super Slingshot (Stone)
€¢C   80 A2 43   Rubber Band Ball
.¤C   00 A4 43   Camera
€®C   80 AE 43   Bag Of Marbles
.ÅC   00 C5 43   Itching Powder
.ÆC   00 C6 43   Super Spudgun
.ÕC   00 D5 43   Digital Camera
€ÚC   80 DA 43   Skateboard

I did try this with the trophy and other items and all that came up was a white square (like it does with the pedstats method on certain items), which does clarify that the items are scripted to appear a certain way:

I also tried this with that blasted joke candy and the same thing came up, which is somewhat odd as if you look at the model list it should crash when spawned as pedstats or as a direct model, which does lead me to believe that this hidden weapon was meant to appear scripted in a cutscene of somesort hense why it still has its animation groups attached to it "W_PRANK.W_Thrown"

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: MadmaN on January 02, 2012, 02:11:17 PM

I may be able to get the joke candy working with the debug menu since bullyimod and I have made some serious headway getting that working.

I will keep everyone informed on our findings.

Post by: GreenOmnitrix on January 02, 2012, 02:35:30 PM

 ;D Thanks MadmaN for still working on the debug menu! I can't wait to have the full fighting styles in it. Will the debug menu have normal strafes and not cheering when you use a fighting styles? ( Ex. Prep fighting style will allow u to strafe or lock on like a prep when they fight) ;D ;D ;D

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Prosecute on January 02, 2012, 02:38:46 PM

well i don't think we will know for certain untill its been cracked fully but hopefully if imod approves of me joining the team we should be able to rustle it up faster than before

Post by: MadmaN on January 03, 2012, 03:56:44 AM

Not much to report as of this post but I am working on a way to possibly code my own debug styled menu with selected items from the games debug menu....no idea if this will actually work but it stands a good chance....since just like I told steman.....I do not believe in impossible. Improbable yes....impossible...no.

Anything is possible....if one is willing to work hard enough to make it a reality. I am doing just that. Working my behind off to get things accomplished for the community.

Hmmm :hmm:, where i can say mad that i do admire ones persistence on this matter, i must also say that what your asking here is nothing short of being completely ludicrous, I understand when theirs a will theirs a way and all that, its whats made this modding board what it is today, but what your asking is for this to be done without a decompiler!?, custom scripting with no experience, with little knowledge on how scripts work, when we cant even enable scripted fighting styles or anything, If this is the case I would reccommend starting off very small on this like doing minor custom scripts like changing the weather etc to at least see if this theory's even possible first

yes your right carlos, it seems its designed just for the player to stand still while using it, perhaps changing one of the anim groups or maybe something in act may make this work? have you tried either?

I actually haven't but I did change the position of the weapon in nifskope, it fixed the problem for a few second until the game crashed. I'll see what I can do in act and even ide, it's probably the animation group, it must be different from SpudG, Brocket, Super SpudG

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: MadmaN on January 13, 2012, 11:52:55 PM

On the bbgun....it is not so much the animations as it is the scripting. The bbgun is hardcoded to only work in the shooting gallery and that is it. There however may be a way to get it working outside the gallery as a functional weapon since bully does have quite a bit of scripting that suggests it could be done but it is somthing that will take a bit of a team effort in finding I would think.

I would suggest looking through the lua scripts inside of scripts.img and poke around in act.img and bully.exe as well since those three areas hold the main code for getting anything in the game to work. I myself found overrides for door and vehicle locking located inside the bully executable that have been proven to be able to be overridden or nulled out but with minor bugs.

it also may be possible to just simply replace the slingshot with the bbgun model wise since the slingshot and bbgun technically use the same ammo type in the game with much the same effect and that may be doable as well. I may try that tomorrow and see if it actually works since I have not really tried a lot of weapon modding due to concentrating on other areas of the game which everyone knows ;)

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Carlosvc92 on January 18, 2012, 12:22:56 AM

Do u need to decompile the .exe to edit it? Or can u work with it undecompiled??

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: MadmaN on January 18, 2012, 03:14:58 AM

The exe needs to be edited via hex since even tho I can decompile it fully to assembly bytecode, I cannot re-compile it back to .exe format due to the nature of how decompilers work. Decompilers never give you the complete full original sourcecode and the only way to have somthing able to be compiled again after decompiling it is to basicly decompile it by hand and rewrite code as needed in order for it to recompile back to executable form.

A person that is knowledgable enough can edit a compiled .exe using nothing more then hex to add or remove from the compiled program but the results will not always be predictable.

I am knowledgable enough in that area to do a bit but I am far from perfect nor do I know everything which is why I consider hex editing to be a trial and error process just like any game modding in general. The only thing I will be hex editing here tho is basicly some of the hardcoded limitations in the game such as vehicle driving, access to certain areas, debug mode (hopefully--the jury is still out on this one if it can be done) and changing some of the hard coded text for my mega mod that I am doing as a gift for the community.


As a side note, I found out some more information dealing with how the stores function in the game and might have a way to double or even triple the amount of goods the stores normally have by default in order to have nearly every item purchaseble....possibly even the ability to purchase skins or new player models...but that one is very iffy due to the amount of work I still have to go through to fully decompile/rewrite the lua scripts which I have not started work on as of yet.

If anyone has any ideas that havent been mentioned before, please jot them down either here or via a pm to me since at this point....I am starting to go fresh out of new ideas on how to tackle some of this....

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Red Blaster on January 18, 2012, 04:50:56 AM

What parts are you struggling with?

And I do have some info I can pm you.

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: MadmaN on January 18, 2012, 09:48:16 PM

@Red
some of the things I am currently struggling with is some of the ways that the scripts get called since it goes back to some of the things I have said already about bully: Nothing is what it seems with this game due to it being a hasty port to pc from console.

I atm am currently making lists of all the available texture files that are in .tga format having exported them out of their .nif texture files so I can get started on replacing every texture in the game...which will take some time to complete so I will most likely release this stuff in stages in the form of addons to a addon...or a upgrade of a sort....havent decided yet on the format I will do this with.

I will however admit to having some difficulty with the fighting styles since I have been taking a look at how they are called in the scripting...plus tracking down their associated animation files in act.img to figure out a new way that ppl can try style mixing without too much work....maybe by loading style parts via a menu or somthing but I keep coming up with blanks due to the complexity of this...not to mention I still need to take the time to mess with fighting styles more so I can help with the mixing styles stuff but thats a part that I have sadly done very little tinkering with since I started out on other less travelled parts of the game that other ppl have not done much modding on to figure the hardest stuff out first...then move to the other stuff...since that is usually how I tackle large projects....in this case a insanely large project...lol

I would however like to compare various notes with you on some things to see if maybe we can help eachother out on our various projects and maybe complete them as a team rather then going lone wolf on them in order to get releases out faster and have them in top quality so that bugs are either very few or none at all if its possible. I also would like to discuss with you the mega-mod that I would like to team up with both you and saurabhb plus a few other modders in order to make a big release that everyone will enjoy since I do have some info that you may or may not have that might prove useful. I can discuss that in a pm if you prefer so I don't reveal my hand too early in the game.

Title: Re: Bully Scholarship MEGASTORES MOD v1 {BETA}
Post by: Carlosvc92 on January 19, 2012, 03:00:47 AM

Post by: Prosecute on January 22, 2012, 06:26:59 AM

@mad, its possible to call scripts throught scripts.img, 1st method is changing a test script and the other is through main.lur, just change one of the scripts it calls mate use the search function and search for "factions" you will see what i mean

Will do. Haven't had much time to do a lot since I been busy with real life matters which kinda came up so I been a bit stagnant as of the past week or so. Trying to get what I have promised done tho since I try to live by my word even if it may take me longer.
