SetZipStreamPassword crash

[AggrorJorn]

I am trying to set the ZipstreamPassword but it keeps crashing.

SetZipStreamPassword("assets.pak","2012");

 

I have made a zip file with password of the assets folders using winrar.

Renamed the .zip to .pak.

Anything else I should add or change?

I had no issues with using it in 2.31 - i dont remember if i had to set the default path to where the pak file actually is ...

 

i have it setup like this :

 

Initialize();


// RegisterAbstractPath("C:/Leadwerks Engine SDK/");

// Standalone :
// copy archive of shaders/data into main and set values as needed.
RegisterAbstractPath("./Data");
RegisterAbstractPath("./Media");

SetZipStreamPassword("Shaders.pak", "schlumperdingeryohoho");

TFramework fw = CreateFramework();

if( fw == NULL ) return FALSE; 

// Set Lua framework object	   
SetGlobalObject( "fw", fw );			   

// Set Lua framework variable
BP lua = GetLuaState();

// ....

iirc i couldnt stream the video and had to use a "media" folder for the .ogg but the "Data" bit is actually the data.pak while the "Shaders.pak" is where the exe is. I have that sample "boxed" and not all media in the folder e.g. cant simply rebuild and test it atm.

Try using Winzip.

Make sure .zip format is selected in Winrar

Make sure the URL for the .pak is correct in relation to the .exe

Aggror jut to check, does the pak work without any pw (just to rule that out)

LE crashes hard if doesn't find a soundfile etc..

 

I was unable to create the asset.pak due to missing abstract in paths etc.. (lecp)

[AggrorJorn]

Lets see without password

 

- The assets.pak resides in the root like the exe.

- I created a zip and then renamed it to pak.

- Assets like textures get loaded correctly.

 

When I try it again, only this time with a password, it crashes as soon as I reach SetStreaMPassword. And not just the game, visual studio also hangs itself.

Looks like a bug. It should work.

 

Try to use simple password like "123" without special symbols.

Try to use short project path like "c:\myproject".

May be you use some custom version of engine DLL?

Try to run engine.exe with start.lua with single command:

SetZipStreamPassword("assets.pak","123")

I have used it in both Blitzmax and C++ (http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/5185-leadwerks-25x-darkbasics-dark-ai/) recently and experienced no issues.

Tried all of that, but doesn't seem to work. Thanks for the help though.

This worked for me in the r316 lecp build : (use after camera is created..)

 

...
// get framework main camera
_camera = GetLayerCamera(GetFrameworkLayer(0));
PositionEntity(_camera, Vec3(0, 0, -2));

//Loading the assets.pak
SetZipStreamPassword("Assets.pak","lol99");

// add the first state and switch to it
_stateMgr.AddState(new LogoState("logo", &_stateMgr));
_stateMgr.Switch("logo");
...

[AggrorJorn]

Awesome work Shadmar. I wonder how this works in the background though. If you would put it right after the switch state, it no longer works.

[Josh]

There is no correlation between those functions, and no reason it should matter.

Are you using any assets in LogoState? That may be a reason.
