any idea how this one happened?

I would never recommend using DNCE. Ever. It'll just make you lazy and disengaged with your code.

I didn't use DNCE, I used Notepad++.

Now, armed with your editor, you should be able to trace and fix your brace sets. Zoom to the line the error is mentioned, and see where the missing or wrong brace occurred, which may be at the beginning or end of a loop or statement, and repeat this for all other error messages.
As I said before, the code you work with is very large, and your resulting learning curve, from a beginner, is steep.

Uh, i don't remember hearing you say that, but if it is so, then how large it is?

That's what she said

Hank, how do i repeat for all other error messages, while using Notepad++ for editing my modified Duke 3D GAME.CON file?

That I don't know (remember).
When I open the Duke game with EDuke32, EDuke32 generates an "eduke32.log" file (that may show up as a text type file in Windows), writing out the executing sequence, that includes any encountered errors.


Try this. Run the your Duke game and see which file was generated last. This file may write out the same thing. Either way, open it in your editor and see what is written in it.

"eduke32.txt"

This is actually eduke32.log but the default .log file association is the same as .txt, so if you have extensions hidden they look the same.

What is fixed?

I fixed the error, pointed out by Hendricks266; that EDuke32 does not write an eduke32.txt file, it writes an eduke32.log file. To avoid future readers being mislead by my post, I edited the post, and stated to Hendricks266 and everyone else that the correction took place; with ^ (pointing to the post above) fixed.

Hank, do you also have that Notepad++?

[Kyanos]

I do! Seeing as how he recommended you get it, posted a link to it and described its color coding features, I will go out on a limb and answer for him, ya he's got notepad++
I'm sorry for being an ass to you but you ask silly questions, and manage to get me going... I'm just playing... Bye now, I won't interrupt your very public, private conversation again...

You haven't interrupted anything or something like that. It wasn't a silly question, just wanted to know

Yes, I have Notepad++ , and I recommend this software to anyone wanting to edit Duke Script i.e. con files.

@ Drek - can't resist, we always can make room for a three-way-private-public chat, like in a Coffee House. So grab a chair and join our table - the Irish Cream looks good.

[Mikko Pekkola]

It's a good thing, that you have, Hank. I've managed to practice creating a CON for Human Trooper like this

Working together with this CON Code for Human Trooper would have been nice

[Mikko Pekkola]

How about we do it?

I also have the alternate CON Code for Human Trooper

it looks like this
