starcheat: player save editor and Python library [Deleted]

I've unpacked my assets but it's still telling me that they aren't unpacked. I've never installed this mod before and I even reinstalled the game earlier today. Not sure whats happening!

 

Same here..

 

buggy behaviour
hp boost from armor and energy from helmet is cumulative
to reproduce and see it well:
on fresh char give self a t10 set, load char in starbound, equip it, load starcheat, note hp/energy max.. change something and save char
reload char in starbound, quit and load in starcheat.. gawk in amazement at the new maxes for hp/energy

you can see it on base clothing too, the first shirt you get will add 5 hp per save/load cycle


also:
trying to get to a point i can 'roll my own' and try making changes and contributing,..
but the setup for windows powershell here doesnt specify what restriction policy to set
made it work with just normal command prompt and py.exe
going to try and make exe.. have all the stuff you say is needed installed now

navigating to source dir and using 'py build.py -e' in normal cmd prompt worked to make exe

 

( same problem) I'm also having trouble if i try unpack my packed.pak with the exe the game comes with it pops up the immediately closes. I unpacked it with cmd but starcheats says that the assets are not unpacked. I unpacked them into the assets folder.
What am I doing wrong?

 

I used the program on my character for some building materials and now it crashes every time I load the save file. Anything I can do to repair this?

 

I love this mod espacially for building things but recently i have not used it because of the unpacking assets part.
Any intel on how long it is going to take you, to make a version that supports starbound without unpacking the assets?

 

Hi everyone. Real sorry again it's still not working, this has been a tough one and I've got work during the week. It will get fixed eventually though.

@megakruemel
No ETA on the non-unpack version at this stage. There is a functional reader available but there's still a lot of work to be done to make it on par with the official tool.

@LoPhatKao
I finally reproduced this last night too! Bit odd but yeah defo a bug and will be looking into it soonish.

@Bolo
Upload the player file somewhere.

 

ok cool stuff has happened

playing around, got the asset unpacker to run correctly during initial setup on windows
-- gui_utils.py, line 165 - change from os.system(unpack_cmd) to subprocess.call(unpack_cmd, shell=True) .. will need to import subprocess
not sure if this will break linux/darwin support.. it shouldnt, but who knows

looking into reading the registry value for steam install path (HKEY_CURRENT_USER/software/valve/steam - "SteamPath"
willl make it easier to try to find the location of starbound (possibly) i can see a few ways this wouldnt work tho..

edit: playing with github, forked repository, edited file and sent a pull request
should make things easier in future if i find something i can fix
(pardon my noobness there, last collab i did was with CVS on sourceforge like a decade ago heh)

 

Committed! Working for me fine

Let us know how the registry key goes. I don't have a problem with that method if it is more reliable

 

All my generated guns icons are X's display stats names and all but when i go in game they turn into green cubes.... Not happy considering i lost my level 10 pulse rifle...
Everything else is fine its just the guns

 

The icons are normal. starcheat doesn't support icons for generated weapons yet, but it shouldn't be destructive. Were you trying to create a new generated gun? That will definitely come out as a generic item.

 

feedback for latest commits (item editor and stat fixes)

2x

stat fixes (at least hp/energy) are working great

.. but then i tried to edit something...

---------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ".\build\gui.py", line 267, in update_slot
File ".\build\gui_itemedit.py", line 140, in get_item
AttributeError: 'ItemOptionWidget' object has no attribute 'variant'

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

a 'simplecapeback' that had a 'colorIndex' of 1, tried changing to 8
(dyed black with dyeing bucket mod)
no idea what color 8 is haha (apparently blue)

 

haha! I literally just got one of these errors. Won't be long I'll have a fix up soon plus hopefully importing all asset options for new items

 

Seems the current issue of the day, I've tried the most recent at the moment, It says that the game isn't uncompiled (even though it is) and offers to do so. But when it does it sits there, mouth agape, and stares at me with it's black command line eyes.

I'm guessing it's not supposed to do this? Lol!

wonderful... I'm still at square 1, if finally went but the races assets are still not being read...

 

Help! I try to run it up and it opens a CMD window, ater a split second it closes. I cant read the info on it. I have packed and unpacked the files severall times, no logs are recorded, and an earlier version worked for me, i dont remember which thought. What should I do? Also, yes, i have cleared out the settings as well and no player files havee been made, not that i even get to the menu anyways....

 

Can you pls run starcheat.exe vie the cmd and copy the error in here? You can open a cmd in the current directory (the one containing starcheat.exe) in windows explorer by holding shift while rightclicking and choosing something like open command prompt here (don't know the actual naming) in the context menue. Then simple type starcheat.exe in there.

 

1rst: Thx for trying to help me out! wasent sure if anyone would notice, specially not this quick

2cond: Here Is A Screenshot, I tryed installing Python and it started to give me a different error and still no opening how ever my PC got very slow so I uninstalled Python and im back to the old error.

 

Looks like it's missing a file, which should be included in the .zip. Try to redownload the latest version and unzip it. (the unziped folder should be 45.6M

 

Re-Downloaded and the folder is indeed 45.6M, the same error is still hapening. Sorry for all the trouble but im really lost, ive even tryed re-downloading past versions that I could find(github). Also, I considered it being a program issue since when I installed Python the error changed but in the earlier vesion that i sayd worked on my first post It worked fine with the same programs that I have now. Also, at this(https://github.com/wizzomafizzo/starcheat#downloads) link, if you scroll down to the "Build Instructions" it says that some programs are needed but nothing is sayd about them in the playstarbound post so... also, I tryed installing them but was only succesfull installing Python 3. Also, 1 more thing worth mensioning, I dont have a "dist" folder...

EDIT: After digging in a bit, I found out that the Dependensies and downloads in the website are to setup a starcheat folder from scrach by using a starcheat-master.zip file. However, could'nt get it to work, cs_freez and PythonQt5(forgot the acuall name) didnt work.

 

I'm also running into Starcheat not recognizing the unpacked assets. It's all there, under "Unpacked" in the Starbound directory. And yes, it IS the correct location. Is this a known bug, or have I done something wrong? I've unpacked the assets manually with the command prompt and with another user's little unpacker GUI, but still no luck.
