TR_Mainland World Error reporting

Post by Gez »

This thread is for error reporting about the actual world of TR_Mainland; the exteriors, the interiors, and the objects in them.

Please use this format for posting errors:

----------------------
Cell: Please tell us the name of the cell you found the error in. If you found it in an exterior, please give the grid position
Location: Give a more specific location, if it applies.
Error: Report the error here.
----------------------

For example,

----------------------
Cell: Firewatch Palace, Duchess' Quarters
Location: On the table
Error: The cutlery bleeds into the table
----------------------

----------------------
Cell: Yashazmus, exterior
Location: Largest dome piece
Error: A root is floating
-----------------------

It can be very helpful to use Morrowind's beta comment function to report errors. To enable this function, simply open up Morrowind.ini and find the line:

BetaCommentFile=

Change this to:

BetaCommentFile=BetaComment.txt
(You can name it anything you want, as long as it has the proper extension)

Then when you see an error, open up the console, click on the object (you should see its ID in the title bar), and type

bc "This is wrong"
or something similar
A log will be created stating the time, place, exact position, cell, and your comment.

Please don't write your bug reports in boldface. We use boldface to mark bug reports that are already fixed. If you post yours in boldface, then we will think it is fixed already and won't fix it.

Evil Eye, on the official forums (only the Mainland bugs; the Data bugs are in an internal thread):

There're a few floaters on the sea side in (25,-5).
The door leading to Ayemar, Guard Tower (the one on the bridge) is stuck in/behind the wall.
The stairs leading to the Dreynim Spa, Foyer are too low, jumping is required to get on the platform. The bridge in Dreynim suffers from much the same problem. As do the shack steps directly across the rope bridge in (30-10). Crap, I honestly thought those bridges were fixed using collision meshes... -Nemon

Not sure if its just me but the stairs going throughout Akamora are a little hard for the player to walk up. Not sure why that is but just wanted to say something just in-case it wasn't jsut me.

Guess I'll just post 'em up here straight away.
There're some floating rocks (and rather bizarrely a flying root) in (43,-14).
The left (coming into Necrom) wall sticks through the gate at (44,-12).

I did spot a few collision meshes in the CS.

Not sure if this belongs here or not but for some reason some Telvanni towers, the manor in helnim, the guard tower in akamora, and the tower in firewatch won't load in MGE, not sure what the problem is or if its something wrong with TR and the last release of MGE.

Must be a problem with mge. Since you are talking about (some) vanilla models. Try reloading you distant land settings and generate distant meshes again.

You can set an override list for statics like these in MGE's distant land creator. Not exactly sure how one would do that, but it should be available on the web somewhere.

TR_Roamer_Hunter_12a in TR_Data.esm differs from TR_Roamer_Hunter_12a in TR_Mainland.esp only in hair: b_n_dark elf_m_hair_26 in Mainland, TR_de_m_hair_004 in Data. Which one is right?

TR_ex_entrance_WG_06 Mephalain Mountains Region (33,-7) 274196 -56956 1404 "WTF another missing int"

Pulummu Mine is devoid of any interesting references.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: Various bugs copied from other people's posts (mostly Lord Berandas'):

Not sure if its just me but the stairs going throughout Akamora are a little hard for the player to walk up. Not sure why that is but just wanted to say something just in-case it wasn't jsut me.

TR_ex_NordWell_DG Firewatch (17,15) 146992 127320 432 "should be lower, compared to the character"

In my opinion all these fences, that could be found in imperial cities (Firewatch) should be lower - it looks weird, when you have fence in front of your head and nothing by your legs.

TR_water_Circle256_DG Dagorda Cavern 2567 439 -140 "diamonds cannot be picked because of this"

TR_ex_nec_loaddoor3 Necrom, Temple Courtyard (43,-12) 354111 -90726 1787 "Im not sure about the scale of this door, but perhaps its intended, because as I've seen the doors usualy don't fit their rims exactly"

Thanks, rot!

Recording some issues I don't have time to fix now:

Cell "Romithren Monastery, Scriptorium" has several objects on de_p furniture resting badly due to 0,0 rotation.

Redesign of the "Teeth of Stone" near Akamora is probably waiting for Mwgek's models.

Overflow from other threads and betacomments.txt; probably a good part of these are obsolete.

Swiftoak about cell "Bisandryon, Gardens":
[02:01] Swiftoak: one of the leaves in the flora_bush plants is bleeding a little into the planter's edge
[02:02] Swiftoak: also the ivy
[02:02] Swiftoak: slightly floating both of them
[02:02] Swiftoak: z values -.5 will fix
[02:02] Swiftoak: the ivy on the railing


[Yeti] Just a minor detail, but TR_m3_S_Ulaf shouldn't be a slave anymore. Human slaves really shouldn't show up this far south, especially so close to the capital. I could have sworn I already made this change a while ago. His background already says he isn't a slave, but apparently I didn't get around to the ID, class, and script changes.

The southernmost parts of m3a8 (south of Enamor Dayn) are boring wg rock filler. They should probably be bordermatched with m6 at some point.

All watery areas in m3a8 are lacking mud crabs, slaughterfish and other baddies. Also all watery areas are not very detailed.

TR_terr_cliff45outL Lan Orethan Region (30,-26) 249568 -212576 1824 "bad juncture with..."
TR_terr_cliff90outL Lan Orethan Region (30,-27) 250464 -214378 1824 "... the one next to it"


TR_cont_rock_gold_02 Thalotheran Quarry (27,-28 ) 226422 -224773 1198 "when stealing (tons of) gold from these raw nodes, TR_m3_S_Ulaf nearby attacks but doesn't report the crime, even though guards are near. Seems unrelated to his Alarm rating. Not sure if fixable or how to fix, perhaps there could be a guard nearer this walkway?" Fixed by giving him Alarm 100; this IS related to his Alarm rating.

- the Thalotheran Quarry gold miners have kwama miner dialogue on "my trade" and need a special entry. This is a general dialogue problem. - esp fix in dialogue thread

- TR_m3_S_Ulgo gra-Shago Salandus doesn't have the freeable-slave greeting, instead defaults "What are you doing here? What can I do for you?"

Nedothril Coast Region: (38,-26) till (34,-27) has nothing interesting what so ever. Maybe add a cave or a bandit camp here and there.

TR_m3_Fedura_Adarys00000000 Enamor Dayn, Adarys Manor 3987 2192 14338 "keeps walking against stuff in the house"

TR_m3_Nels_Vlars 00000000 Vlars Manor 5532 2894 17602 "Naming a lot of places on Vvardenfell, shouldn't his scout class name places on the mainland?" Like all scouts. Should be a dialogue claim.

TR_m3_Ranis_Arthyn 00000000 Ranis Arthyn's House -486 -88 16130 "Only has background topic"

ex_cave_door_01 Alt Orethan Region (27,-26) 227377 -208040 1367 "Missing interior" This is being done in http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=23940 .

ex_cave_door_01 Lan Orethan Region (30,-26) 250251 -212031 1719 "Missing interior"


Mwgek asks: Can the slaves at Thalotheran Manor be freed? I can't seem to find a key in the game or in the CS. (What does vanilla do in similar cases?)
- they can't. As vanilla convention goes, slaves in civilian settings aren't freeable by default

I'll inspect it all properly later.

Cells: Akamora

Around Akamora the water is too "deep" in several places. You can walk under the water level due to the space between the water static meshes and the ground level. The other thing that doesn't look too good to me is the water around the farm at Akamora. The ground level is not low enough or needs more rocks to cover up the edges of the water mesh. View the pics. I circled the areas in one of them.

Hi - These ruffles caught my attention the other day.


Cell: Akamora, Guls Manor
Location: The upper floor's central static
Error: Should be an interior corner but is a center piece - you can see into the grayish nothingness



Cell: Akamora
Location: The manor atop the mountain
Error: Not necessarily an error, but something that left a small tear in my immersion experience. In a place like Akamora, you can't help but take note of the shape of the exteriors. The interior of the mountain-top manor seems conspicuously mismatched with its exterior - it was disarming when I walked into a salon that, by my geometry, ought to be floating above the vale (think the interior wraps around the opposite direction of the actual layout of the exterior). I know interiors aren't intended to fit snugly into their exterior shells - but just wanted to let you know that I found it to be distracting.


Cell: Dulandos, Main Hall (exterior entrance)
Location: The exterior entryway
Error: This is something I seem to recall annoying me in Vanilla. The exterior door leading into the ruin is impossibly small - even for a Bosmer. The door on the interior side is appropriately sized. Maybe Dunmer have gotten taller over time or something, but barring some such explanation, I see no reason to carry shoddy use of a static in Vanilla over to TR. Upping the size would be a simple way to get rid of this distraction (BTW, loved seeing the OM architecture thrown into an exterior cell!)

I'm getting a ton of objects being replaced by the big giant blue exclamation mark with the yellow diamond. including all of Teris Sevuro's body, everything on Zuriel Drelor except his head, arms, and feet. I followed the link for version 1.5 that wentto morrowind nexus, downloaded it from there. I;m looking at the archives in the morrowind.ini file right now, it clearly says Archive 2=TR_Data.bsa directly beneath the tribunal and bloodmoon ones.

Edit: never mind, apparently the bsa file needs to be in the data files folder with the plugins and not in the morrowind folder. Now anyone who made the same stupid mistake as me that reads this will know.

Tes96's List of Errors

Post by Tes96 »

It would be nice if there was one sticky topic where we could all post errors instead of each individual posting topics. So I'll just make this for now.

[url=http://imageshack.com/a/img94/4932/screenshot4dv.jpg]These[/url] two walls in Necrom aren't layered together very well. The one below seeps through and makes it look fuzzy and distorted. Someone might want to adjust it by a tiny bit.


[url=http://imageshack.com/a/img41/7180/aqp2.jpg]TR_furn_Plank_broke_04[/url] has caspering in the actual model. That should be fixed.

[url=http://imageshack.com/a/img43/4158/y89i.jpg]TR_bk_WayrestJewel[/url] is valued at only 1 gold. I'm assuming this is going to be changed later on. A book should cost more than a blank piece of paper. (sc_paper plain is worth 3 gold.)

That's it for now.

Reminder this still needs doing and I still can't do it.

- more on the foliage issues (also something I can't fix): again, there are still many trees with leaves sharply plunging into rocks on ground/player level right next to the road, which is afaik considered a bug in exterior reviewing, (and it also looks terrible because of the far textures but this should be fixed on the model?)
BUT the worst of it is where it generates invisible collision where you should be able to walk.

TR_flora_tree12_ND Lan Orethan Region (35,-30) 292468 -245580 2570 "dunno which of these is causing collision"
TR_Flora_treeoak_FZ1a Lan Orethan Region (35,-30) 292462 -243142 3555 "but both look wrong"


- there may still be items left completely underground (ie useless hit to performance) in the exteriors

Regarding possible issues with objects floating out of Z bounds,
I wrote a tes3cmd perl script and found these:
[spoiler]

TR_Mainland Copy.esm CELL (DATA): mephalain mountains region (31, -15)
Ex_waterfall_mist_01
z = 202922.5625

TR_Mainland Copy.esm CELL (DATA): dun akafell (25, -13)
in_OM_Aquaduct
z = 1251244

Ex_waterfall_mist_01
z = 174619.21875

Ogre/OpenMW limits apart, Lightwave suggests in [url=http://www.oceanlightwave.com/morrowind/]TESAnnwyn[/url] manual that -32760 <= Z <= 32760
[spoiler]d. Morrowind specific restrictions

The Morrowind game engine has a 16-bit height range limit. Ironically the Construction Set doesn't. This limit restricts the usable height range to approx +/- 32768 game units (+/- 4095 THU or +/- 467 metres), so, technically, mountains are impossible in Morrowind. With TESAnnwyn, you can scale down the heights of an imported heightmap manually using the '-s' option or use '-r' to exponentially scale down tall heights (above 20,000 game units) and '-l' to flatten the maximum height to 32760 game units (4095 THU).[/spoiler]
the script could be adapted to automatically move the object down to a min. Z coordinate if you want to move instead of delete them

Forgive me if I am ignorant, but I do not understand the nature of this problem. From what I understand, the heightmap can't go over 32K units. But statics should. So basically we have to lower those statics somehow? But why, becase it works perfectly in the vanilla engine.

Edit: This is probably an instance of rouge objects being placed there by accident. There's no reason why any TR content should exceed the 32K limit. Thanks abot!

I am fairly sure these should be deleted, not floored, as most of them wouldn't fit at their given X- and Y-coordinates whatever Z-coordinates they would be moved to. I think whoever placed them in the CS lost them (things like this do happen; compare with the stray pathgrid points) and just assumed they were nowhere.

Quick fix for whoever edits TR_Mainland first:

tes3cmd delete --instance-match "Z:174619|Z:202922|Z:1251244|Z:177307|Z:173792|Z:175649" "Data Files\TR_Mainland.esp"

Many thanks, scrawl & abot!
