In the future, don't delete your threads. They may help someone else down the line. The problem you're having now is exactly the same thing as before with different names. Read the error log and you'll see that. hint: BaseBullet

[Herobrine112211]

Still have no idea how to fix it everything is ok looks like.

this time it's probably because of this:

Code Select Expand


<ThingDef ParentName="BaseBullet">
<defName>Bullet_ScarHC</defName>
<label>7.62×51mm NATO</label>
<texturePath>Things/Projectile/Bullet_Small</texturePath>
<projectile>
<damageType>Bullet</damageType>
<DamageAmountBase>8</DamageAmountBase>
<Speed>85</Speed>
</projectile>
</ThingDef>

<ThingDef ParentName="BaseBullet">
<defName>Bullet_ScarHC</defName>
<label>7.62×51mm NATO</label>
<texturePath>Things/Projectile/Bullet_Small</texturePath>
<projectile>
<damageType>Bullet</damageType>
<DamageAmountBase>8</DamageAmountBase>
<Speed>85</Speed>
</projectile>
</ThingDef>


you use ParentName="BaseBullet" twice, (for the same bullet I might add)  where I think you intended to make one of them the BaseBullet.

[Herobrine112211]

Still not fixed. Same errors.

The problem is that you don't have a ThingDef named BaseBullet.

You've also got a lot of old XML in there. You should remove that (By changing it to what the game now uses, if it has a replacement.), otherwise the guns may not work as intended, or at all.

[Herobrine112211]

I fixed most of the things but still 2 red errors left please help.

[ItchyFlea]

I fixed most of the things but still 2 red errors left please help.

The problem is that the game can't find the graphics to use for the gun.
Is the graphic actually in "Textures/Things/Item/IRGuns/"?

[Herobrine112211]

Yup it was a texture. Now i am getting 1 more error and some yellow errors on startup. Please fix i added 2 picture too. The weapon works in game. But dont do anything.

[ItchyFlea]

The weapon works in game. But dont do anything.

That's because you are using old XML to define what the weapon does. You need to change that to what the game now uses. Look at the XML the weapons use in the Core mod and go from there. (EG: <damageType> is now <damageDef>, the rest will most likely be just as easy to spot.)

An alternative would be to recreate your mod from scratch using the Core mod weapon definitions as a template.

The critical error in the first picture looks like it's caused by the old XML.

[Herobrine112211]

1 more problem 1 yellow text left i do not understand. In weapons_nukegun. Help. New picture and mod files.

[Neurotoxin]

your very last line: <ThingDefs> should be </ThingDefs>

[ItchyFlea]

Can't tell what the problem is without actually seeing the contents of that file. For whatever reason, the game thinks you don't have a </ThingDefs> tag, yet it is there in the screenshot.
I do see the beginning of a tag that tells the game to ignore the following information, but can't tell if that tag is properly closed or not. If it isn't, that's the problem.

[Herobrine112211]

You can check the files are attached.

An other problem could be a space which isnt supposed to be there I had that problem a lot when editing save files 1 space or 1 missing or wrong tag/letter can break the mod make sure to double, triple and quadripple check everything on mistakes.
