Character Creation Options

EDIT: I think I've worked out the problem, so I'm locking it whilst I test my theory so that someone doesn't point it out!
-> My potential solution didn't work, so the thread is now unlocked!

So, I'm trying to add the option to choose between different models during the Character Creation phase.

I've tried to copy and modify the code from the Fantasy World character_factory.py file, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Here are the lines that I have changed in character_factory.py:

Code:: meshInfo = { "female_1" : [ "human_female.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_01_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01_hair-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"female_2" : [ "human_female.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_02_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02_hair_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"male_1" : [ "human_male.mesh" ,
[ "bodyShape-lib.0", "human_male.skin_material" ],
[ "head_aShape-lib.0", "human_male.head_a_material" ]
]
},
"male_2" : [ "human_male.mesh" ,
[ "bodyShape-lib.0", "human_male.skin_material" ],
[ "head_bShape-lib.0", "human_male.head_b_material" ]
]
}

# Add clothing meshes. These should really be done as inventory items,
# but as a quick fix, we put it in the base display context of the object.
meshInfo["human_male.mesh"].extend([[ "leather_b_bootsShape-lib.0", "human_male.leather_b_material" ],
[ "leather_b_tunicShape-lib.0", "human_male.leather_b_material" ],
[ "leather_b_pantsShape-lib.0", "human_male.leather_b_material" ]])
meshInfo["human_female.mesh"].extend([[ "leather_a_beltShape-lib.0", "human_female.leather_a_material" ],
[ "leather_a_pantsShape-lib.0", "human_female.leather_a_material" ],
[ "leather_a_bootsShape-lib.0", "human_female.leather_a_material" ],
[ "leather_a_tunicShape-lib.0", "human_female.leather_a_material" ]])

# set up the default display context
displayContext = DisplayContext("human_female.mesh", True)
for entry in meshInfo["human_female.mesh"]:
displayContext.addSubmesh(DisplayContext.Submesh(entry[0], entry[1]))

When I get to the creation screen in the client, there are no options for other models, jsut the default male and female one.
When I then click 'Create' it comes up with an internal error.
I checked the character_creation.out file, and the resultant error is as follows:

Any idea what's going on?

~Tristan

Check the last line in the "male_1" section...............you have a closing } instead of a closing ]

(edited in later)
and both male_1 and male_2 sections should end with a ], followed by a } to close the entire code block

Code:: meshInfo = { "female_1" : [ "human_female.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_01_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01_hair-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"female_2" : [ "human_female.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_02_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02_hair_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"male_1" : [ "human_male.mesh" ,
[ [ "bodyShape-lib.0", "human_male.skin_material" ],
[ "head_aShape-lib.0", "human_male.head_a_material" ]
]
],
"male_2" : [ "human_male.mesh" ,
[ [ "bodyShape-lib.0", "human_male.skin_material" ],
[ "head_bShape-lib.0", "human_male.head_b_material" ]
]
]

}

But why didn't you just use the raw code as is and just change the materials/textures?

Code:: meshInfo = { "female_1" : [ "human_female.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_01_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_01_hair-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_01_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"female_2" : [ "human_female_fantasy.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_female_body-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.body_02_clothed_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_mat" ],
[ "human_female_head_02_hair_01-mesh.0", "human_female_fantasy.head_02_hair_01_mat" ],
]
],
"male_1" : [ "human_male.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_male_body-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_body_01" ],
[ "human_male_head_01-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_head_01" ],
[ "male_head_01_hair_01-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_head_01_hair_01" ],
]
],
"male_2" : [ "human_male_fantasy.mesh" ,
[ [ "human_male_body-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_body_02" ],
[ "human_male_head_02-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_head_02" ],
[ "human_male_02_hair_01-mesh.0", "human_male_fantasy.human_male_head_02_hair_01" ],
]
]
}

look at the differences between the two..........in particular the "male" section where meshes are defined rather than libraries as in your modified codeblock

Ok, good point.

So, I've changed that, and it keeps throwiing errors as it goes further down the script. I keep changing things, and then it finds something else wrong further down lol. However now, I'm stuck!

What's the error message in the log file..........it'll give the line number and the character number

oops, forgot about that.

Thanks for your help Smile

I think your problem is with your client file. it looks like it is sending human_male.mesh instead of male_1. Make sure that the meshInfo map on the client is the same as the one on the server.

EDIT
It appears that what is happening is that the client is sending the actual meshName while the server is expecting an identifier (male_1) you could switch it so that the entries in the map are stored by the meshName but then you would only be able to have one costume for each mesh or you can modify the client to send the identifier instead of the meshName. Look at FantasyCharacterCreation.py instead of SampleCharacterCreation.py to see an example

EDIT: Just saw your Edit, I'll try that

How do I go about doing that?

Ok, so I replicated the code from the FantasyWorld character_factory.py file, and here's what I have for the actual Character Factory section:

Code:: # character factory
class SampleFactory (CharacterFactory):
def createCharacter(self, worldName, uid, properties):
name = properties.get("characterName")

# check to see that the name is valid
# we may also want to check for uniqueness and reject bad words here
if not name or name == "":
properties.put("errorMessage", "Invalid name")
return 0

modelName = properties.get("model")
meshName = meshInfo[modelName][0]
submeshes = meshInfo[modelName][1]
override = Template()
if meshName:
displayContext = DisplayContext(meshName, True)
for entry in submeshes:
displayContext.addSubmesh(DisplayContext.Submesh(entry[0],
entry[1]))
override.put(WorldManagerClient.NAMESPACE,
WorldManagerClient.TEMPL_DISPLAY_CONTEXT, displayContext)

statProperties = ["strength","dexterity","wisdom","intelligence","class"]
for statProp in statProperties:
   if (not properties.get(statProp)):
   properties.put("errorMessage", "Missing property "+statProp)
   return 0

When I try to create a character, there are no extra models (just the basic male and female), and an error pops up saying 'Exception thrown in createcharacter'. At the moment, I can't seem to isolate the problem...

However, I am still getting this in the login_manager.out, but I don't see why a new error was thrown up for what seems to be the same problem.

Thanks...

You need to do the same on the client side (incidently I was refering to the FantasyCharacterCreation.py on the client not on the server) but it looks like you might need to use both

Hmm, I didn't even know they existed!

I'll have a flick through now.

Yes there is a server side character_factory.py that creates the character and a client side (in the scripts folder) SampleCharacterCreation.py or FantasyCharacterCreation.py that allow the player to make selections and choose what to create.

Right, I've sorted it now, as per Delurin's instruction.

Cheers guys Smile

So, are you going to throw some working scripts our way and document it on the wiki, or are you going to let other folks reinvent the wheel too? Laughing

The scripts work but it can be confusing since there are two versions there is the sample world script which client side uses the SampleCharacterCreation.py and server side uses the sample world's character_factory.py and the fantasy world script which client side uses the FantasyCharacterCreation.py and server side uses the mv_fantasy world's character_factory. As long as you follow the layout of one of those you should be fine. The problem comes if you try to mismatch between them, then you get the problem that tristan got.

Well, I'm still several pages behind, and just figured out how to import assets, so in the fairly near future I'll be working getting character creation choices going, and clear docs make things an awful lot easier. Very Happy

Ha, I thought I had it sorted, but it threw some more errors. For now, I'm going to concentrate on the more important stuff, like the actual world layout. However, I will be going back to it again sometime tonight.

well that sux rox*grumbles*

I hope you have great luck and fortune because "I'm" right behind you. Laughing

What I did was use the SampleWorld character_factory and SampleCharacterCreation which has you just store the mesh by name in the map rather than a reference. Then I had the player select different costumes separate from the model. But it really shouldnt be hard to use a reference from what it looks like (just by the code you posted) there is a map with each a value , the name i.e. male_1, and a list which is actually the model name followed by another list of submeshes and materials. It is important to understand this type of data structure because it is reused a lot of places. They probably used it a lot because it seems to be the easiest way to send data between all four of the different programming languages (Java -> Jython -> Ironpython -> C#) So they generally they 'serialize' the items by putting them into list and putting those lists into more lists and then into maps.

But it really shouldnt be hard to use a reference from what it looks like (just by the code you posted) there is a map with each a value , the name i.e. male_1, and a list which is actually the model name followed by another list of submeshes and materials. It is important to understand this type of data structure because it is reused a lot of places. They probably used it a lot because it seems to be the easiest way to send data between all four of the different programming languages (Java -> Jython -> Ironpython -> C#) So they generally they 'serialize' the items by putting them into list and putting those lists into more lists and then into maps.

I'll certainly take that into consideration.

Once I actually get this working, I'm going to write a concise and simple tutorial for it. This is pretty important, after all!

So, I've got back to work on the Character Creation screen, and I've still got the original problem.

I copied the FantasyCharacterCreation.py script over to SampleCharacterCreation.py in the client scripts folder, and made the appropriate changes (factory names etc). I also copied the character_factory.py from the fantasy world config folder over to my own, and again made the necessary changes.

Here's my client-side SampleCharacterCreation.py code:

What am I doing wrong/not doing?

Thanks

I may be wrong...the fantasy scripts might not work with the current version of mars. I am pretty sure that you are supposed to have attributes set in the character_factory which it doesnt look like it is doing. I would use the sampleworld scripts but wherever it asks for meshName/ submeshInfo have it pull the model (i.e. male_1 from the meshInfo map) and then split the entry so meshName = meshInfo[modelName][0]
and submeshInfo = meshInfo[modelName][1]
and update the meshInfo to what you wanted it to be.
do that for both the client and server

Ok, so would I just replace:

Code:: meshName = None
gender = properties.get("sex")

if gender == "female":
meshName = "human_female.mesh"
elif gender == "male":
meshName = "human_male.mesh"

if meshName:
displayContext = DisplayContext(meshName, True)
submeshInfo = meshInfo[meshName]
for entry in submeshInfo:
displayContext.addSubmesh(DisplayContext.Submesh(entry[0],
entry[1]))
ot.put(WorldManagerClient.NAMESPACE,
WorldManagerClient.TEMPL_DISPLAY_CONTEXT, displayContext)

with

Code:: modelName = properties.get("model")
meshName = meshInfo[modelName][0]
submeshes = meshInfo[modelName][1]
override = Template()
if meshName:
displayContext = DisplayContext(meshName, True)
for entry in submeshes:
displayContext.addSubmesh(DisplayContext.Submesh(entry[0],

?

Or is it not that simple? (just for the server-side character_factory.py, of course)

Ok, so I gave it a shot, and the Client gave me a Script error on startup...
Problem is, I can't find any errors in the logs..

Anything blindingly obvious in the scripts?
