TrailMyx's Master Rail Engine/Developer

This looks like a win 7 problem- did you check in the root of the C drive?

[Noobie]

No, I did not check the root of my drive, but can you explain how to do that as well?

[gimlet]

No, I did not check the root of my drive, but can you explain how to do that as well?

look at this from your code above

set %rail_filename c:\noobiesrail.txt

I have no clue how to use this program but this either saves or reads a file in the root directory of your C drive.

so

right click on windows start button (lower left hand corner of your taskbar)
select open windows explorer

go down on left to         local disk (c:)
click on on right should be all the files  and folders in root directory of C drive

Well I am having trouble with this. I read the userguide and still am not sure if i am on the right track. Can anyone give me some guidance?

1. I have downloaded both the rail engines 30I and 30k "just in case this was the issue"
2. I have developed a rail with the development tool.--- Rail File Name "noobiesrail" Label "Lablell1"
3. Tried to run the rail using the code below in its own saved tab

I am running windows 7

Code: [Select]

set %railsubs tool_railengine30k.txt
set %rail_filename c:\noobiesrail.txt
set %rail_label  LABEL1

call %railsubs TM_Initialize 

call %railsubs TM_LoadRail %rail_filename

if #RESULT = #TRUE
{
  display ok Rail file not found
  stop
}
set #LPC 1000

call %railsubs TM_RunRail %rail_label 0 END FW 
if #RESULT = #TRUE
{
  display ok Rail error occurred.
}

call %railsubs TM_Close
stop
 

Anyway I could get some help with this? I still have not been able to get this to work. I can get my rails to run in the dev tool, but not using the example code.

Sorry, Noobie, was on vacation

[Noobie]

No big deal it made me grind it out until I got it, but I must say NICE WORK with this after I figured it you (path problem) I was able to do some really sweat rails server option is sweet!

[TrailMyx]

Yes, whenever I do any serious railing, I use the server mode also

[freddy]

is there a super secret private version of this script where running a rail backwards works?

I looked trough the PDF and even used the test code you provided a few potst back and can't get it to run backwards. Halp!

[TrailMyx]

It works out of the box.  Check out the heartwood quester; all rails in there work forwards/backwards.

ROFL!  You're brilliantly retarded.  heh

Uncle!

Where does the callback file go?

I can't use the explicit location
c:\her\there\whereever
I tried same folder as easyuo.exe
I tried the same folder as the tm_rail server

I keep getting unable to load callback file

I just started playing around with this and seem to be having the same issue above. Reading through the thread I never did see a reply or solution posted. I'm currently trying on XP as my Vista desk top cooked the power supply and do not have UO on my laptop with Window7. If by some slim chance you may remember from back then or any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm sure with time Ill figure it out but cant hurt to poke for a few ideas in the right direction.

[TrailMyx]

Hmm, still works.  I just tested it.  Ran everything out of my EUOX.exe directory.  Take a look at the snapshot of the creator UI attached to see how it's set up.

I'll also attach test code that calls the same callback function each time and shows a popup.

I'll also attach the test code:

callback_funct.txt = contains the call back functions referenced in the rail file
rail_forward_reverse_tester.txt = test script to test for call back functionality
test_callback_script.txt = poorly named rail file.

Go and stand in front of the W. Britain Bank doors and load "rail_forward_reverse_tester.txt".   Remember to put all these things in the directory with your EUOX.exe and your script.

Tested on EUO 214, OSI and Win7 Ultimate

Hmm, still works.  I just tested it.  

This has absolutely nothing to do with this post, but I'm glad you logged in! haha
