A lot of bugs and potential stack overflows where fixed, and something else was added to the functionality, all the new functions will be documented, in the wiki page, when possible, the only thing I ask is SHARE the mods you make, so I can patch them in, you will get the same from me.

Errors:
+ Engines/MLQuests/MLQuestSystem.cs:
CS0104: Line 651: 'QuestLogGump' is an ambiguous reference between 'Server.E
ngines.MLQuests.Gumps.QuestLogGump' and 'Server.Gumps.QuestLogGump'
CS0104: Line 217: 'QuestLogGump' is an ambiguous reference between 'Server.E
ngines.MLQuests.Gumps.QuestLogGump' and 'Server.Gumps.QuestLogGump'

Changed all occurences to XMLQuestLogGump and fixed it.

Also another module (not by Me):

XMLSeige

 

[fwiffo]

Changed QuestLogGump in XMLQuestLogGump because of name conflicts with RunUO source from SVN.

In XmlSpawner2.cs fixed the SpawnerBounds, that returned a smaller area than the real one of the spawner, this only affected FOREACH command.

Fixed an old bug in XmlDialog, where an NPC with LockedConversation selected, if it starts a conversation and then waits for input from the user, another user giving speech for that input could obtain, in case of successful eventual checks, the control of the subsequent input, now this is checked, so LockedConversation makes more sense.

Added some extras found in the web, they were not checked for any bugs, so, if you plan on using them, be warned that they may cause server instability, TEST THEM at your own risk!

Does anyone have a copy of the Quests from ML eg the heartwood quests in xmlspawner format?

 

[fwiffo]

Those quest were released to the public, in the first place?

Anyway, if someone, anyone, has material or samples to add I'll be glad to do it, also, if someone wants access to the SVN as a devel, ask me.
SVN, at the moment, is read only for anonymous user, but I can add someone as devel if he wants to add something. Of course I'll check the works done.

 

[zolo888]

I am really struggling to get my point across and i am sorry to bother you........ but.

I am looking for the xmlspawner "spawns" for xml spawner eg all the ml npc quests ........

Do they exist?

 

[Safera]

What's the link to the WIKI?

 

[fwiffo]

Safera:

At the moment the WIKI isn't finished, I've written it already on the release page.

When it will be ready, it will be ready.

To receive a minimum of help with XMLSpawner, you could read the txt file, where at each release there was written the functionality of each command.

[Safera]

Thanks, fwiffo.

fwiffo updated XmlSpawner 2 with a new update entry:

Fixes in SETONPETS and changes in "NAME" match in recent additions to match original xmlspawner

Fixed the use of name proptest, in case you want to allow a search and don't
want to specify a name in property test, you can use the wildcard "*" (FOREACH -
AMOUNTCARRIED and many others that will allow to input a name among other
things):

Example:
FOREACH,PlayerMobile,*,3/DAMAGE,100

Will do 100 damage to all playermobiles in a range of three, the * will match
any name
FOREACH,Item,,3/Name/New Name
Will get any Item in a range of three whose name is "null" in the property test,
and will...

I cannot find a download link after being transferred to the external site.

 

[fwiffo]

There is no direct link, there is an SVN repository, that's the better option, since I'm still developing in it, making changes.

Last change that will come is the completely converted Attachment system (the base one) to strongly typed/Generics use, this optimization is for speed, arraylists and hashtables are for the past, not for present.

fwiffo updated XmlSpawner 2 with a new update entry:

Various fixes and Conversion to the better strongly typed list and dictionary

Revision 6:
Fix to a Cast exception in GetClientsInRange, since this call returns Netstate Type, not Mobile, also an original bug was found in PlayMusic, considering that netstate were directly casted as mobile, it could cause a server crash.

-------------
Revision 7:

Completely converted attachment system to use strongly typed List instead of ArrayList and Dictionary instead of Hashtable.

Tried a conversion of XmlMobFactions/XmlDynamicFaction with the use of the same as above.

Generic...

Ok, Thanks.

In the googlecode page I've put a link to a zipped rev7 release of xmlspawner, if you've difficulties, try to download from there. Keep in mind that I test with SVN releases of RunUO, and only with that.

I downloaded this and put it into a fresh server install I am getting the following errors:

Any idea what to do here?

 

[fwiffo]

Enum.TryParse is available from .net 4.0, my error, If you want to use it you'll have to enable the use of .net 4.0 (just download and install it, I tried and it work flawlessy without any mod). Otherwise you'll have to wait until I fix it for who is still using legacy code (it's not hard, since it was done that way before)

 

[Pace Abbott]

I downloaded and installed .NET 4.0 restarted the computer and it is still compiling with the same errors am i missing something?
