binary_path not working

[WYRMY]

Hi, when I make my _main.cfg, I have to put the binary_path that's outside the #ifdef pointing to the folder, not to the external_binary_data folder, or it can't find the images.

Code: Select all

#textdomain wesnoth-sotgs
[textdomain]
    name="wesnoth-sotgs"
[/textdomain]

##### if I have this, the image won't show up

[binary_path]
    path="data/campaigns/Swords_of_the_Golden_Sands/external_binary_data"
[/binary_path]

##### if I have this, the image will show up
##### of course I would have to change the path inside [campaign][/campaign]

[binary_path]
    path="data/campaigns/Swords_of_the_Golden_Sands"
[/binary_path]

[campaign]
    id=Swords_of_the_Golden_Sands
    rank=300
    icon=raider.png~RC(magenta>black)
    name= _ "<255,204,0>Swords of the Golden Sands"
    abbrev= _ "SotGS"
    define=CAMPAIGN_SOTGS
    first_scenario=01_Dawn_Raid
    difficulties=EASY,NORMAL,HARD
    difficulty_descriptions={MENU_IMG_TXT2 "fighter.png~RC(magenta>black)" _"Fighter" _"(Easy)"} +
    ";*" + {MENU_IMG_TXT2 "raider.png~RC(magenta>black)" _"Raider" _"(Normal)"} + ";" +
    {MENU_IMG_TXT2 "elite.png~RC(magenta>black)" _"Elite" _"(Hard)"}
    description= _ "A desert chieftan must fight to save his tribe from mysterious happenings. Will he succeed, or will the shadow of chaos descend upon the men of the desert and rent them asunder?

I'm not sure what your problem is, but I do know that the following code does nothing at all:

Code: Select all

[+images]
    {@campaigns/Swords_of_the_Golden_Sands/images}
[/images]

There is no [image] tag, nor does including a folder containing no *.cfg files do anything.

[zookeeper]

Maybe you should actually tell where you have those images of yours, like raider.png.

I had a suspicion about this, after after finishing my campaign it had the [image] path wrong. I'll delete it.

Maybe you should actually tell where you have those images of yours, like raider.png.

In the toplevel directory, I have a folder called external_binary_data.

Inside I have raider.png etc.

Images are looked in the images/ subdirs of all binary paths. Move them to external_binary_data/images/ and they'll work.

Cool! It works now!
