Pathcam won't work in gamemode.

[Crispy_]

I put the code in my gamemode and have it execute like this:

Code: [Select]

// load the internal addon files
// these are in the gamemode because people might not have these addons
exec("./Script_PathCam/server.cs");
exec("./Event_PathCam/server.cs");
With the files being organized like this:

Code: [Select]

My gamemode
Script_PathCam
PathCam.cs
server.cs
Event_PathCam
PathCam.cs
server.cs
I also removed this from the event's coding, as it already exists in the gamemode itself:

Code: [Select]

%force = forceRequiredAddon("Script_PathCam");

if(%force == $Error::AddOn_NotFound)
{
error("Script_PathCam not found!");
return;
}
How come it won't work? This method is working for other addons. I have setplayertransform's code in the same way.

We can't really help you unless you show us the actual part of the console output where your gamemode is executing.

Does this help?

Here's the entire console:

Don't package the mods in your game mode. Just make a link for everybody to download them separately.

I'd rather not force people to download add-ons to use my gamemode. If I make the gamemode plug and play, people might be more interested in it.

[Blockteen]

How about have the server.cs files of the add-ons, inside the gamemode, looks like you did that, but have them not in a different folder, just inside the zip/folder, like for the gamemode server.cs,

Code: [Select]

exec("./Script_PathCam.cs");
exec("./Event_PathCam.cs");
exec("./Event_SetPlayerTransform.cs"); //this is a rename of the server.cs file for the addon.
If that doesn't help, I tried.

Im 95% sure the pathcam add-ons didn't work, or were extremely glitchy to the point of crashing servers. Looking at the errors, it would seem that the problem is within the add-on itself.

It worked perfectly when i was making and testing the build in custom gamemode. I'm just trying to put the addon in the gamemode itself so people wont have to download it.

Okay I looked into this problem deeper and it seems bricks loaded by the gamemode can't start a pathcam, but when i build bricks and have them start the pathcam it works. I've tried changing the brick owner to the host's and that did not work. I did solve that console spam I stated above though. The bricks do have the events, so I have no idea why it's not working.

[Darksaber2213]

Perhaps the bricks are loaded in public ownership?
