S2 Building Issues

Alright, I've been trying to get the Knuckles object from puto's s2k upmem disassembly, I had to fix some branching issues due to using AS but after that I ended up with tons of these errors:





819 errors, 13 warnings.


So I don't know what the fuck is going on, I tried looking at the Macro Assembler AS's topic at Retro & mentioned about similar stuff, I tried that but it just gave me more errors.


Anybody able to tell me how to fix this issue? The object was saved in Obj4D.

 

Don't add Knuckles. =P


What I see is that you basically copy-pasted didn't you?


That has nothing to do with it of course.


It is probably (not that I know, I use S1) because you are using Obj4D, and not something like Obj01 or something, like Tails and Sonic.

 

Well, the errors you've posted sound like errors occurring as a result of previous errors. Could you post the first few errors that are output? It's quite likely the real cause lies there.


EDIT: It looks like the errors are the first few which occur, although that might be happening due to buffer overflows in the terminal window. In build.bat, change


"win32/asw" -xx -c -A s2.asm


to


"win32/asw" -xx -c -A -E error.log s2.asm


and then upload error.log somewhere

 

Oh, thanks for telling me how to output an error log.


Here it is, 81KB of errors.

 

All right, the underlying error is that no label with the name SK_Map_Knuckles exists, probably because you didn't put it in yet. Adjust2PArtPointer2_Useless also probably doesn't exist, replace all instances with just Adjust2PArtPointer2. It's hard to tell whether all the other errors are caused by this one or actually genuine errors, but some of them seem genuine so I guess fix those two and post the new error log.

 

Sorry for bumping, finally got to getting the plcs, mappings & the Knuckles art as well.


Here is the new error log, I just don't understand them & why they're having a hissy fit.


756 errors, 13 warnings.

 

You don't have a label named Adjust2PArtPointer2_Useless in your disassembly. Replace all instances of it with Adjust2PArtPointer2, that should get rid of at least some of the errors.

 

OK, that took a few errors off, now at 708 errors.

It's saying that most of them labels do not exist. And the rest are pretty much not aligned.

 

They're all fixed, I have the object in now, I'm currently looking into getting him in as a player, other than that this problem is solved.

 

Was I right?
