I understand it's an issue with Dytech-Power, but the person that made the unofficial Dytech update says he doesn't know what's going on. Any help? It only happens with Dytech-Power. Waitex is not conflicting with any other Dytech module or any other mods I use.

Well there is the offending table scale

tracing it back

dytech-high-entity.lua line 42

horizontal_animation = SteamHorizontalPictures(1, SteamEngineTint.mk1),
vertical_animation = SteamVerticalPictures(1, SteamEngineTint.mk1),

dytech:functions lua line 180 (and vertical on line 194) same issue
function SteamHorizontalPictures(Type, Scale, Tint)


Conclusion Dytech bug: SteamHorizontalPictures wants Type, Scale, Tint .... high-entity is only sending scale and tint not type. so type is being set as 1, and scale is being set as the tint table

Since the function isn't using the type change both of the functions in functions.lua by removing Type
function SteamHorizontalPictures(Scale, Tint)
function SteamVerticalPictures(Scale, Tint)

In tracking this down I did manage to create a 1 gigabyte log file..........

As Nexela already said it's a problem with DyTech that i solved a long time ago). I have already talked with kasandraen and it should be solved soon.

Hey, thanks. I tried to look at Dytech-Power code, but it's greek to me hope it can be sorted out soon, Waitex is in my "essential" mods list.

Or maybe sb can tell me how to get it work with the 0.15 steam version.

Marc90 wrote:Where did you get the 0.15 version? That version isn't even out yet.
Besides that, 0.15 factorio is supposed to have high res textures (not all parts of the game but at least some) in the base game.

ETA for 1 Gb vram version of the 1.2.0 release?

Thanks.

I'm trying to use the latest Waitex with an updated version of my Better Beacons mod found here: viewtopic.php?f=91&t=23094
I get an error like /prototypes/Base-override.lua:1396: attempt to index local 'v1' (a number value)

Sorry for the late response.
I don't think i will make one this time around. Atleast not before 0.15 is out. If HD in 0.15 doesn't cover enough entities then i will update WaiTex to 0.15 and release a 1gb version. If you still want to use WaiTex then you can make a 1gb version youself by disabling textures in the file AllowedTextureChanges.lua by changing AvailableGB to 1 instead of 3 and maybe setting enabled to false for a few entitites in that same file.

folk wrote:I realise that 0.15 is right around the corner, but my base is getting bigger every day and every detail counts, so I extracted waitex, deleted the zip, went into the folder and ran this command:

Code: Select all

find . -type f -iname '*.png' -exec pngquant --skip-if-larger --strip --ext .png --force {} \;

Which reduced the size of all the PNG files from 540+ Mb (if I remember correctly, but you can check that yourself from the mod download) to 136,4 Mb.
Visually, in game, it looks the same.

Whether or not it will have any impact on performance or load times, I don't know.
But it's interesting.

EDIT: I ran it on factorio/data/base/graphics, reducing its size from 125mb to 53mb. Zero adverse affects on gameplay that I can see.

"pngquant --quality=70-80 --speed 1 " + "\"" + Filepath + "\"" + " --ext .png --force"

• Added support for built in high res textures. Waitex textures will not be used if there is a high res texture instead.
