Battle_graphics ID 70 missing

International board Help & Bugs
#1

In spell_info.json, StoneGaze “anim” points to battle_graphics ID 70. Which is missing. Is there any animation for stone gaze?

Edit: Paralize points again to that missing ID 70. Should ID 70 point to paralyze anim. SP10_.def?

#2

Well, Paralyze has it’s own animation, while Stone Gaze has not. Just as any other effect that changes color of stack (Bloodlust, Clone). I was hoping these will be solved when we migrate to OpenGL, but that project has stopped, unfortunatelly.

#3

For paralyze ( SP10_.def) there is no entry in battle_graphics. I suspect is this missing ID 70. (Stone Gaze is clear:

"anim" : -1

.

Another issue at firewall: config/battle_graphics.json. at ID 44 first entry is for 2 hex (C07SPF0.def). It should be for 3 hex: (C07SPF3.DEF).

#4

krs, if you’ll submit patch with all these corrections I’ll commit it to svn.

Technically it is possible to implement them right but this may break future 32-bit support…

From the other side - implementing effects like this with 32-bit graphics would need OpenGL anyway. Perhaps I’ll try to implement these effects a bit later.

#5

I have added my changes.

  • Paralyze tested.
  • Firewall not tested because I cannot be opposing player. But logically should be the rigt def now.
    StoneGaze still needs fixing. “anim” : -1 crashes due to “vector … something”. Please take a look what value should be/should not be there.

Patch log:

  • Corrected starting animation for opposing player expert firewall (<)
  • Paralyze animation for Scorpicores was missing from battle_config.json
  • StoneGaze spell pointed to a non existing AC_mapping entry. (Set to -1 for the moment -> crash!)
#6

Where?

Regarding Stone Gaze - perhaps use some other animation (like paralysis) until correct effect will be implemented? So players will see that special effect triggered instead of having no visible reaction at all?

#7

Something happened while adding attachment , because I remember selecting file and pressing buttons :D…

Yeah… “The extension Patch is not allowed”. Will zip it.

Regarding Paralyze as animation for stone-gaze… I just now understood the discussion you had about OpenGL. Was wondering why blodlust has Wraith “heal” animation.

Hotseat? :stuck_out_tongue: Use VCMI_Tests_2011b if you did not yet.

#9

Should ID 70 point to paralyze anim. SP10_.def? :arrow_right:
