Two problems, one simple one hard

[icecafe]

First off let me state that I am using PlusEMU (Sledmore) and RevCMS on IIS.

So im more focused on the problem of customs not working. Tips post edit is to just to clear somethings up and re-state the problem.

What I have done:
1. Added the SWF files to my hof_furni folder. ( I made sure that they did in fact have a grafics tag.
2. Added the furni data that was given with them.
3. Added the furni to the two db's. (Furni and catalog_items)
4. When adding them to the db's I made sure that the sprite_id matches the ID in the furni data that corresponds to the correct furni.
5. I ran the commands :update_furni and :update_catalog after I booted my hotel back up, because I stop my hotel when applying updates.

The outcome is that the furni is still invisible. My hope is that someone can give me furni data/SQL/SWF that are 100% guaranteed to work on sled's plus emu so I can see if it's an a swf issue or something else.

You can follow the development of PlusEmu, Sledmore is working on it now again. And the furni id in the database must match the one in furnidata

@Zaka
They do match.

You must be registered for see links

Not the ID column, it's another one, forgot the name of it

@Zaka
sprite_id, it seems to be what others are linked to however they are still invisible :x
 
Upon more testing. I got the HC Custom Pack from retro ripper. I looked at the other items in furnidata and saw the common ID was the sprite_id. Now that I learned this I set each sprite id to the matching id in the furnidata. Still no luck. The good news is that the HC Customs Pack came with and without the tag. With the tag just disconnects me and without dosnt. I'm not sure if this will help, but thank you all for the help so far!

Yes exactly, the sprite_id is the one that has to be in furnidata + database. Nowadays furnidata.xml is used and you have to have the GFX tag, and there is some added line into the actual SWF itself. Remember to also clean you cache before accessing the hotel, and use the command :update items and :update catalogue I think it is, not sure tho.

Using ones with tags just disconnect me, why is that? How do I add the tags myself?

You would have to basically decompile the SWF file, make the changes and then compile it again.

 

[icecafe]

Do you have a cracked sothink swf decompiler or can I use a different one?
Can you also provide an example of the tag and or a guide on how to add one for plusemu.

No I don't, I don't mess around with SWF files

You got a skype I could possably add you at?

Yeah, but as I said, I dont mess around with SWF's so therefore my help would be useless in this case

 

[icecafe]

Well I found a furni editor added the tag and its still invisible. :x

could it be cache?

 

[icecafe]

I have no idea, but I am using IIS and I did clear my cache before going on so I will wait and see.
Could you just type a list on how to add them so I can make sure I did it properly. I bet its some minor detail that I overlooked. SWF has tag, furnidata in, ids match furnidata no idea what else to do.

As I've said two times already, I don't really deal with SWF's, but you add the item to hof_furni, you add the row to furnidata, and you use the same ID as sprite_id in the furniture table of the database.

 

[icecafe]

I understand. I just wanted to make sure I was at least installing them right. Thanks for the help so far!
 
Someone suggested it could be related to IIS htaccess? Is their any truth to this?

Before post things like this, check first other threads for help. This question is already answered many times on devbest. It's not hard to fix the issue.

 

[icecafe]

@yoyok If you could please link me a thread like that it would be a lot of help.
All of the threads I found relate to not having the graphics tag, which I have done. I also have: added the furni to both DB's (Furni/Catalog_items), added the furni to furnidata, added the SWF files to the hof_furni and used :update items / :update catalog in game.
