dozens of error reports every step. Can I turn them off?

#1 Post by Coldbringer »

I have a character stuck because I tried playing them once without the mods downloaded that I started playing them with. Now everytime they move or attempt some other action dozens of error reports flood the screen in several bunches. Even though I'm playing through steam with all the proper mods available now, the character still has this problem.

Is it possible to turn off the notifications for error reporting? Just for this character at least.

I've tried turning off all the mods and restarting the game. Restarting in debug mode. Nothing seems to work.

You can't just turn off error messages or addons. (Turning off addons and then loading a character that uses them doesn't not load those addons.)

If you post up some of the error messages, I might be able to suggest a lua console command to stop them happening.

But that code is checking that you still have the resources to have a sustained talent active.
Did you remove an addon that included a sustained talent you were using?

Disable all active talents and write into the lua console:

Code: Select all

game.player.sustain_talents = {}

None of my addons have anything to do with sustains AFAIK. The character is an archer and none of the addons alter the race or class or talents, except for making exotic weapons general skill available for all characters.

I couldn't get steam working for months so I started playing Tome without steam, that's when the bugs started for that character. Now I have steam working again but it didn't fix the issues I created by trying to play that character without steam.

How Do I open the lua console?

If you didn't have all the addons installed when you loaded the save in the non-steam version of the game, it would have just ignored the missing addons and removed them from the required addons list once it saved again. So it won't start using them again once you load them via the Steam version.

The lua console is ctrl+L for me, but it should be in the key bindings.

you need to enable dev mode first
I write guides and make addons too now, apparently

You can go here for a compilation of everything I wrote, plus some other important stuff!

Includes general guides (inscriptions, zone, prodigies), and class guides (Demo, Anorithil, Bulwark, Zerker, Sblade)

Okay I enabled dev mode, opened the lua console, typed in the exact command you wrote and hit enter, nothing happened

Maybe there should be some more checks in the code for this...

Similar issue.
Disable all timed effects.
Write this into the lua console:

Code: Select all

game.player.tmp = {}
You won't see anything happen when you put these commands in.

And did it remove the error?
Are there any more?

the first command you had me put in reduced the error pop ups by about half. So it's down from like 40 to 20 now every time I take a turns worth of any action.

The second command I entered into the lua console didn't seem to have any effect at all. No new errors, but the same old ones. Seems to be only 2 separate errors repeated multiple times.

Hrm, I'd assumed that error was coming from your actor, but it might not be.
Kill everyone else? (Or just change area?)
