View Full Version : Unable to load Maps after Update

Hi,
i've been running odyssey of the dragonlords for 5e for a long time
so far so good
but today after the update i'm unable to load certain maps
AND i'm getting script errors when loading data for the custom animated dice
from i've gathered the problem is only on maps that have some kind of player data on them
i've tried to remove all tokens and remove/renact los but it doesn't work
i've tried to open a different campaign with the same adventure and the fresh maps work fine
i've tried to force update
i've tried to flushdb
i don't know what else i can try.... the ideal solution would be to reset map data to the original but i can't do that
the other option would be to transfer all i can in the new campaign (if you have suggestion beside export/import pc)
i've attached the logs
if you can give me info on how to resolve without exporting everything by hand would be great
also if you could give me suggestions on how to automate it as much as possible

It looks like one of your 8 extensions, maybe Aura Effects, is causing problems. Try opening you campaign with no extensions and see if it resolves, then work through the extensions until you find the ones with problems. Maybe sure those are updated and if they are let the extension developer know what is happening.

forgot to mention, already tried to disable all extensions... no impact whatsoever
IMHO it's something about the new animated dice not the aura effect
btw i've been able to avoid the log error with this workaround
1-flushdb
2-force update
3_reload campaign
edit note: when i get the script errors :23: attempt to call field 'getDiceInfo' and so on
the ui doesn't fully load i.e. no dice on the right56136

Where are those logfiles from? Two of them show an FG version of 4.1.16 - which is from March last year. One says v4.3.2 which is the correct version. This usually happens when you have two different installations of FGU on your system. Fix that issue first and then see if you still have the errors.

nope i haven't solved, that is just to solve the script errors, but the maps still do not load (load with the "?" for the image)

Search your entire computer for fantasygrounds.exe. It will show up in 2+ locations.
Also look for your FG Data directory (search for 5E.pak) and make sure you do not have more than one.

This means you have FGU installed in two different locations - and you have a shortcut to the old installation. So when you use the shortcut the old installation starts and indicates an update is needed - but the update then sends the data to the newer installation (based off registry settings) and that has already been updated (hence why it takes a few seconds) and then it launches the newer installation.
Look in Settings -> Advanced. The App Directory location is where your newer FG installation is. Make sure any shortcut you're using to start FGU uses FantasyGrounds.exe in this location.

BINGO! I was going to post that i found just this....
this probably solve WHAT caused the problem, i thing there is data from an older version on maps of a newer version.... is there a way to fix that?
if not is there a way to quickly transfer as much data as i can from a campaign to another (except for map data)?

You can move your campaigns from your old version to your newer version. Just make copies and safely store them before you overwrite or delete anything.

the problem is they are contaminated, i've probably saved data on maps from a version to another

There is no simple way to pick and choose what you want to transfer.
You can edit the XML files directly (make lots of backups) but the chances of making an error are pretty good...

I don't have Odyssey of the Dragonlords so I can't confirm if it's a problem with the module, or specifically with your campaign. But the fact that the error is specifically saying "Unable to load file" and indicating a base file path, it could be an issue with the module.
To see if it's an issue with those images inside your campaign, you could try this - go to the images list and find "Player Map - Colossus of Pythor.jpg" - if you right click on it, do you get an option to "Revert Changes"? This will remove any in-campaign edits done to the image and revert to the original module state - just for this image. It might be worth trying that on one of the images that is showing an error, then restarting FG and seeing if the error for that image is still present.

This has fixed the issue for me too. Weirdly, some of the tokens were also not showing up. I had to delete and re-add Kyrah to the combat tracker before her token appeared.

I went to images (within the campaign), went to the map image for players and right-clicked in mouse, and chose the revert changes option. Corrected for me. But I was using the official settings of the map, if you have made changes, you will have to redo everything, I believe.
