Title: FH+ I keep getting Ogre exceptions about Fire/campfire particle!
Post by: Palewolf on November 03, 2011, 02:01:38 am
I am continuouusly getting the EXACT same error everytime i try to go into FH+. The bad part is, I have UNINSTALLED SOOO MANY TIMES! Yes, I am completely wiping all files from my computer. Everytime I finish installation and the box is checked to automatically launch after installation, it starts fine, with no exceptions. The moment the game is closed and I think its fixed, BAM, right back to the exception. There is absolutly NO objects files other than what is already on there, includeing the same thing with Particles. WTheck is going on?! MAy i suggest that the download be taken down and fixed completely before it is released again?!

i totally agree wit this,  every since FH+ was re-released lots of people have been having big (sometimes unfixable) problems with the maps and stuff (they would be black). i think they should edit and fully test this version again and then put it up for download once their sure it will work ok

I think FH+ was tested. It'd only make sense.
Just, different people, different computers, different errors.
Raz, if you could post or take a screenshot of the error, someone can help you.

that's rare, i made a particle named Fire/Campfire, but you are using the FH+ installation as is?
There is a known problem when you are exporting maps, the particle files replicates it self.

If you give the exact error message, we can guess better the problem.

Thanks for your replies. Now its happening on FH and FH+ and yes Theirry I know to look in the particles, but nothing Fire/campfire related is showing up there. I  am familiar with the double particle thing, with Dreks, and others particles.  Also, I have reinstalled several times and the problems not getting fixed. I know its a particle problem somewhere but I cannot for the life of me find it! I scoured all of my files. Also to the othe person who commented, OBVIOUSLY it was tested, but it was already removed ONCE for failure to work properly, and it needs to be removed and fixed again to save  players the hassle of uninstalling and downloading everytime they decide to update/fix it.

The ogre exception says this:

OGRE EXCEPTION (4:ItemIdentityException): ParticleSystem Template with the name Fire/Campfire already exists in ParticleSystemManager:: Create template at  c:/Ogre_161_tag\OgreMain\src\OgreParticleSystemManager.cpp  (line 273)

Which this error leads me to believe that SOMEWHERE a duplicate particle has been made when I exported my map. I still get this error, even AFTER removing every single thing within my particles folder, and I have experimented with other folders as well. I cant find the darn thing >.< Any ideas?"

I'm getting something similar with the Water Splash ParticleSystem Template thing, it happened right after I downloaded some new meshes. I don't get to play with my new toys! D8
But I did find something that I -think- has something to do with this.
In the FH+ Folder, there's a text document that is titled FH. I tried messing with it, didn't help me, I dunno. It feels like the problem's in here. This is what it says (mind you, I downloaded Drek's meshes, so his/her stuff shows in there :P):

You could try messing with that, BUT MAKE A BACKUP FIRST. Lemme know if you get any results or solve it.

OMG thanks for posting this! I just Completely wiped FH+ and FH from my computer and am reinstalling and even after that on FH+ im getting a watersplash error just like you, and thats with a fresh slate! :/ So I rewiped it again and Im redownloading and reinstalling at the moment, just to see if that helps, I will try to find this in my files and check it out. Also I found here on the help thread a list of ogre exceptions that has my ogre exception 4 listed. It says that I need to reinstall and it should help, no luck so far.

Meh. Dang water not splashin' right.
Is it happening for you on regular FH? Because that's fine for me. And there's a reason they recommend torreting over downloading, for some reason downloading the installer causes problems. uTorrent is free, google it. :3

Okay, do you have meshes by Awesomeness4ever? If so open waterz.particle with notepad and delete the first line.

'particle_system WaterSplash'

If not, then open up any particle files that relate to water and try it? But I'm not sure so make backups.

Your problem is really hard, i don't have idea of what is now.
Maybe the duplicated particle is hidden inside a exported map, inside a fho file. for example, 2 .fho files with the same particle template.

Another thing to try:
Sometimes when you run the game using a shortcut can cause problems because sometimes the execution directory is different to the installation directory, try executing FH directly from the installation directory.

Thanks for all of your input! I have just deleted FH+ cause even with NO maps,objects or anything I automatically was getting watersplash exception.  BUT I did have Her/his particles on my game before and I knew they would create duplicates, but I didnt know to do what you mentioned. I just deleted them from FH and reinstalled and now I have very few custom meshes, im just sticking with default for a while tho they are quite boring. But thanks everyone. Thanks thierry if I run into the problem again Ill go directly to my C drive and run it
