RE: Another version
Superb. :goodjob:
I'll run some extensive tests tomorrow (customized test cases). This is a major step forward!

The exterior merging feature sounds like it will save a LOT of time! :goodjob: It takes both a very long time and a tremendous amount of effort to manually clean region files.

VWD Fixed! Yay me!!
Oddly enough, it was quite simple. Looking at the code, it was a bit cavalier with the order of the cell child groups: temp was always last, but the VWD and persistent groups could be in either order. Looking at the OB ESM, that was not the case; persistent was always first, followed by VWD and then by temp. Once I changed the merge code to force that order, lo and behold! Areya's Palace was no longer falling into Cygnus X-1! Been on a Rush kick lately. It obviously need more testing, but my test was to merge the VWD ESP with ST v3.12, and both Areya's place and the Steadhelm castle had actual architecture. As a side note, I added the same "expand cell tree" functionality to worldspaces that the CELL group has; just right-click on the child group just below the WRLD record you want to expand on the plugin side. Tell me what you think, Steve |

Something I just added to my working version of Gecko is the ability to get a rudimentary report of all "objects" added by a plugin. I added this partly to have an offline way of searching while having the CS running and also as a possible steppingstone to some cell pre-population features I'm mulling over. It is very simple: a little header info, an intro for each group, and a list of form & editor IDs. It includes everything but INFOs & CELLs.
Here's a brief snippet: Quote:TES4GECKO FORM ID REPORT for plugin <Silgrad_Tower.esm> Thanks, Steve |

RE: Another version
Quote:Originally posted by SACarrow<p>I attached a few test files. <p>#1 I used an existing region area and created a second region area outside the original area which overlaps with the Steadhelm area and generated the content. <p>#2 I created a new region which overlaps with the Steadhelm area and generated the content. <p>#3 I created a new region which overlaps with the Steadhelm area and added a castle (manually) to the SH area and one castle oustide the SH area within the new area. <p>When merging these files to the ST esm I can't select the region areas. <p>If I merge your ExteriorCellTest.esp (altering Tamriel) to the ST esm it's possible to select the regions. If I merge the same file to the OB esm I can't select the regions.

Yep, I found a couple of cut-n-paster errors that made it so no regions were found from the very master to be merged to. I did see a couple of oddities that I need your opinion on:

Quote:Originally posted by SACarrow Only the cells within the desired region should be merged. Cells without a region shouldn't be merged. For regions w/o a WS --> Normally a region should be linked to a WS. The presets plus the region areas (as per the coordinates of the claim description) have to be merged to the esm before the generation starts (as per the region guidelines). This ensures the preset is linked to the WS. For some reason the Deepen Meadows areas weren't merged to the esm. The whole area has been generated but not merged.

Please do so. It's not at that release stage, 'cause I've discovered another outbreak of the disappearing land bug. I'm trying a test case right now.
Needless to say, ready for release it is not. Steve Edit: As Arte Johnson would've said in the early '70s, "Veddy interesting..." I fired up a test using 6 cells: -33 & -34 for X and -9, -10, -11 for Y. The -33 column is in the region with ID 0109C472; the -34 column is senza ragione. I added a statue to the -9 and -11 cells and did minor landscaping to the -10 and -11 cells. I then merged and said to merge no exterior cells; this merge removed everything from the -10 and -11 cells. So just ignoring in Gecko (my current approach) cells in the plugin that have a LAND subrecord is totally frakked. :O Investigation continues. |
