keybounce Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 So I'm trying to make an equipment list. I run xcomutil game_7 eql, and get an equipment list. I edit it, make sure it's what I want, and then try to update my battle. It's turn one of the battle. My command line is:xcomutil game_7 eqp wrt The output:Identification of the battleCorrectly identifies the difficulty levelCorrectly identifies the base of origin.Tells me that 80 objects are sent back to that base Recommended limit on available objects: 137Using / instead of invalid equiment type /s21r1/wmEquipment type / found And that's it. No file in the game directory was changed. The game has the same set of equipment it had before I ran xcomutil. I don't know why it says that /s21r1/wm is invalid -- that was generated from the EQL flag. (All I did was assign new equipment; the source battle had enough equipment and locations used so I could understand how to write the assignments I wanted.)

keybounce Posted August 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 OK, I have some more information. I explicitly added an equipment for "/", and things changed. I got 4 of these error messages, for these names: t57r47/s21r1/wmt59r42/s21cr1/cwt60r52/s30c2/Sctt65r57/s41r2/Sct These are the longest names -- all shorter names equip just fine. According to the docs, I should be ok with 19 characters after the slash. Yet it looks like 7 is the real limit. Equally odd, the docs say that if you have name/x/y, then the /x/ in the middle is the equipment name part, but I seem to need to use the entire tail, with both the manual part and the automatic part. Finally, if I do use WRT with this, then all the names are truncated at the first slash -- all the equipment types are removed from the names of the I have xcomutil 9.60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keybounce Posted August 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 So it's not length. I've played with a variety of names. Some work, some don't, and I can't figure out any pattern of what does or does not. Has anyone used this successfully? If it matters, this is running inside Qemu with FreeDos, on a Macintosh 10.4.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keybounce Posted September 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 For what it's worth, it's working now. I have no idea why it failed before, and works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
