12.23.08 19:34:29 EXCEPTION halt in \halopc\haloce\source\hs\hs_compile.c,#306: tell matt that somebody failed to correctly report a parsing error.


First off, I got this when attempting to compile scripts. Anyone know how to fix this? And anyone know who matt is?

I'm Matt! (Oh wait, my name is Matt but I don't work at Bungieh. DAMN.)

I had this error. It means you have tried to reference a HUD message from hud_set_message_text that doesn't exist. Just make sure the name is right.

Holy crap, I'm Matt too!

Ok, so I just compiled a HUD message, and I use the standard HUD.

This is the tool output:

Couldn't read map file './toobeta.map'
### hud messages.hmt

          >>Find out what happened to the Marine Scouts
               >>Find out what happened to the Marine Scouts

               >>Escape the Red Base

This is my script

(script startup baseenter
	(begin

		(hud_show_motion_sensor false)
		(hud_show_crosshair false)

		(show_hud_help_text true)
		(hud_set_help_text obj1)
		(hud_set_objective_text obj1)
		(sleep 150)
		(show_hud_help_text false)

Anyone know what is wrong?

I don't see anything wrong...

Zealot wrote up about it here if you want to check yourself: http://forum.halomaps.org/index.cfm%3Fpage=topic&topicID=14872

Thanks, apparently I didn't put my scenario into the data folder when compiling

No problem.
