Hi All

 

I'm trying to make a custom soldier name mod that is gender and race aware. The idea is that you'd use a tool like the XCom name generator here:

http://daiz.io/xcom-namegen/

 

You prefix the name with a "1" to indicate male, or "2" to indicate female

 

e.g.

1John Smith

2Sally Jones

1Bob

 

You can also optionally add a 2nd digit to pick the race

(0=cauc, 1=african, 2=asian, 3=hispanic)

e.g.

10John Travolta

11Mike Tyson

21Oprah

 

etc.

 

I've made the mod and the code looks right when decompiling the results with UE Explorer, but the game crashes on start up. I've also tried making very simple versions of the mod that just set a local variable but that also crashes. Hopefully I'm making some silly noob error here that you guys can find.

 

Here's the mod:

I'm still struggling with this - it still crashes on startup. What's strange is that the last few lines of code that should be there don't appear when I decompile the patched file with UE Explorer. The last lines of the modified CreateTSoldier function look like:

     }
    GenerateName(kSoldier.kAppearance.iGender, kSoldier.iCountry, kSoldier.strFirstName, kSoldier.strLastName, kSoldier.kAppearance.iRace);
    kSoldier.kAppearance.iArmorTint = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.DEFENDER_MEDIKIT - 1;
    // End:0x143D
    if(XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.COUNCIL_STAT_BONUS >= 0)
    {
        kSoldier.kAppearance.iArmorDeco = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.COUNCIL_STAT_BONUS - 1;
    }
    // End:0x1541
    if(XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.ShowUFOsOnMission >= 1)
    {
        kSoldier.kAppearance.iHaircut = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.ShowUFOsOnMission;
    }
// my added code is here:
    iCountry = int(Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 0, 1));
    kSoldier.strLastName = ((iCountry > 0) ? Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 1) : kSoldier.strLastName);
    kSoldier.kAppearance.iGender = ((iCountry > 0) ? iCountry : kSoldier.kAppearance.iGender);
    iCountry = int(Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 0, 1));
    kSoldier.strLastName = ((iCountry > 0) ? Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 1) : kSoldier.strLastName);

// there should be a line here with
// kSoldier.kAppearance.iRace = ((iCountry > 0) ? iCountry : kSoldier.kAppearance.iRace);
// the "return kSoldier" is missing too
}

My current mod looks like this. I suspect the problem is to do with memory sizes or pointers not being updated or something like that. Can somebody help please?

You forgot to adjust script memory size.

REL_OFFSET=0x28
[MODDED_HEX]
XX XX XX XX YY YY YY YY
XX XX XX XX here sets memory size and YY YY YY YY - serial size.

 

Alternatively you can use this code:

REL_OFFSET=0x28
UNSIGNED=0xAAAAAAAA
0xAAAAAAAA here is script memory size in hex representation.

 

In UEE go to View -> View Tokens. Scroll down to the last one to see something similar to

(AAA/BBB) [53]
	EOS(1/1)
Memory size of the script is equal to AAA+1 and serial size is equal to BBB+1. Note that both are in hex.

 

If there is no EOS token at the end of your script, it means that current memory size is too small. Increase it to some random big value, like twice of the current value, and try again.

Hi wghost81 - thanks for the info. Is offset 0x28 the standard location where the script memory size is stored? I don't really understand how these mods work - I've been piecing together info by examining other mods and by reading everything I could find on the wiki. It's still pretty confusing though.

 

I've changed the mod as follows and now I can see all my code when it's decompiled. XCom still crashes when it starts up though. Is the problem related to me not using named references to the various variables and structures or doesn't that matter?

 

I set the script size to 0x1858 which is quite a bit larger than it needs to be. It doesn't have to be exact does it?

The end of the decompiled function looks like this now:

    kSoldier.kAppearance.iArmorTint = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.DEFENDER_MEDIKIT - 1;
    // End:0x143D
    if(XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.COUNCIL_STAT_BONUS >= 0)
    {
        kSoldier.kAppearance.iArmorDeco = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.COUNCIL_STAT_BONUS - 1;
    }
    // End:0x1541
    if(XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.ShowUFOsOnMission >= 1)
    {
        kSoldier.kAppearance.iHaircut = XComGameReplicationInfo(class'Engine'.static.GetCurrentWorldInfo().GRI).m_kGameCore.ShowUFOsOnMission;
    }

// MY CODE APPEARS HERE - YAY! But it still crashes on startup! :(
    iCountry = int(Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 0, 1));
    kSoldier.strLastName = ((iCountry > 0) ? Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 1) : kSoldier.strLastName);
    kSoldier.kAppearance.iGender = ((iCountry > 0) ? iCountry : kSoldier.kAppearance.iGender);
    iCountry = int(Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 0, 1));
    kSoldier.strLastName = ((iCountry > 0) ? Mid(kSoldier.strLastName, 1) : kSoldier.strLastName);
    kSoldier.kAppearance.iRace = ((iCountry > 0) ? iCountry : kSoldier.kAppearance.iRace);
    return kSoldier;            
    //return ReturnValue;

>I set the script size to 0x1858 which is quite a bit larger than it needs to be. It doesn't have to be exact does it?

 

Quite opposite: it has to be exact value or the game will crash. Random big value allows you to decompile the script with UEE and obtain the exact memory size value.

 

As I wrote earlier, now you have to open your script in UEE and go to View -> View Tokens. Scroll down to the last line to see something similar to

(AAA/BBB) [53]
	EOS(1/1)
Memory size of the script is equal to AAA+1 and serial size is equal to BBB+1. Note that both are in hex.

 

Yes, for all XCOM scripts 0x28 is a standard memory size offset, you can use it safely.
