jump drive3 crashing

[Williamm]

I tryed uploading this and the game crashes when
I try to load a saved game.

what should I do?

You may have a COMMAND_TYPE_FIGHT conflict, in that they are both trying to use the same command.

IE They are both trying to use the same command slot in the menus. Xai Jump 3.1 (or is it 3.0a?) uses 315 and 316. See here:

http://xscripting.com/modules.php?name= ... opic&t=425

I do not know what TYPE_FIGHT command Auto Patrol uses.

Hold on....

Original AutoPatrol uses 330, 329 and 328. These should not colflict with anything......Unless they have changed in the later release.

Are you running other scripts?

First, I took out the old files. Next,
I deleted the old jump commands and patrol scrips from the game itself.
Then, I tryed to upload thejump3 comands game crashes.
Next, I took out the jump3 commands game runs fine
Then I tryed to upload the patrol4 commands, game crashes.

I removed them game runs.

Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks

..you get a new entry to the navigation menu of your ships and theres no need to have a jumpdrive nor ecells

You should be aware that if you have saved your game with the jump script installed, the save game will have the script within it.

When you reload, the script will be reconstituted.

It doesn't sound like a problem with the jumpdrive scripts per se. Sounds more like your install doesn't like scripts. Have you tried reinstalling the game? Another possible cause is if you've some how changed the file format from windows to unix, that will cause the game to crash when loading a save game. Not sure how you'd manage that though, short of opening the files and resaving them. What extractor do you use? Does it have an option for extracting text files in a different format?
