Windower 4 - Discussion and Support

[Karizo]

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I've been getting the following error:

Lua error (runtime) - GearsSwap/equip_processing.lua:308: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

and I'm pretty sure it's related to the Mecistopins Mantle; I only started seeing this error when I equipped it, and removed all other backpieces out of inventory/wardrobe. Once I put all the other backpieces back int heir places, unequipped the Mecistopins Mantle, and reloaded GS, everything went back to normal.

My CP dreams ; ;

you might have to be more specific than this. does this happen because mecistopins mantle is in ur job.lua? as in u made like a toggle to equip or or perhaps just kept it as an idle piece? i haven't really run into any issues with the mantle itself, the only place i use it is keep it in my default idle set, nothing fancy yet. or i would equip it and //gs disable back at times.

[Alvinho]

It's not in my job.lua at all. Maybe that is the problem?

I like this //gs disable back thing though.

EDIT: I just tried //gs disable back, manually equipped the mecistopins mantle, and got the same error again.

EDIT #2: Did some more digging, the line in question in the error message is as follows:

name = res.items[items[to_windower_api(res.bags[cur_item.bag_id].english)][cur_item.slot].id][language]

So I guess it has something to do maybe with the mantle not being listed in my resources/items file?

[Byrthnoth]

This indicates that your resources are out of date, probably. Download items.lua from here and put it in your windower/res folder, reload gearswap (//lua r gearswap) and tell me if that fixes the problem. If it does, you might want to grab the rest of the resources from that link.

[Alvinho]

That did it, thanks!

Most of the files in my res folder are from either Sep 9th or Aug 12th.

So I've been getting some crashes lately, rare, even with Hook 4.8.2.3
Made a Crashdump.
Not even sure this is related to Windower tbh, might have been something else.
Can Arcon or anybody else give a look at this crashdump and see if they can get anything out of it?

It totally wasn't timers. After a couple of crashes I unloaded it and it still happened.

[Sechs]

And one more dump

My galka sense is tingling and telling me this might actually be FFACE related and not windower. Or maybe an FFACE<>Windower interaction, but not Windower alone.
Anybody can see any clue from this?

[Arcon]

Thanks for those, pushed a new Hook to dev, can you let me know if it still happens with that? And if so, provide a new crash dump?

[Sechs]

Arcon nevermind my previous PM, had another crash.
I'm gonna try that new hook as soon as I get home.
Thanks!

[Sechs]

Another crash with the new Dev hook, here it is:

Again, no clue if it's Windower related at all.

[Arcon]

Thanks for that, I think I may have gotten it... I hope, lol.

Can you check under the same link as before please? It's on dev again as well, if you play there.

[Sechs]

I just took it from the Windower Dev earlier, I'll do the same again and let ya know!

Edit: Windower Dev not upgrading for me, still 4.2.8.4

Edit2: nvm now it says 4.2.8.5, gonna try it!

[Sechs]

Good sign! 6+ hours of continuous play without crashes.
So far so good I guess.

[Trumpy]

I could be wrong, but it seems like with timers on the release windower (im not positive if ihave hooks/timers.dll that arent the normal ones cause i have downloaded some you put here in this thread sometimes) that when i play with my mule. he will cast shell or haste on me and itself. Sometimes timers seems to only show 1 of them in the buff duration part. like it shows Shell (Trumpy) and then when he casts on himself it just shows Shell (As if Shell overwrote Shell (Trumpy).). It doesnt seem to happen all the time though. Usually it shows both. I have just noticed it from time to time the last couple days. Has anyone else noticed this? I will try to pay more attention to it to catch it.

[Draylo]

Was there a way to add indi spells to timers?

[Arcon]

They don't give a buff, do they?

[Draylo]

Only some do that target the party, like indi haste etc. They should have a static time though with af pants.

[Arcon]

If they give a buff they can be added. If they aren't already it's just because no one requested it yet.

[Draylo]

Is there any way for it to detect any indi spell cast and put up a timer based on AF legs or not.

[Langly]

You could create a custom timer like a few other addons do. Not entirely sure of the process but I know it's possible.

[Sechs]

Still no crashes, good sign at least.
