If anyone has anything I should add, let me know.

So a few things you should NOT do in XML (my generator).


  • Do NOT attempt to put unlock or prestige codes as a menu, sub-menu, or menu item. They will NEVER WORK.

    Setplayerdata CAN NOT run in game and I have yet to find a work around.


  • Do not use the "&" symbol. It seems xml parsers (programs that read XML and process it) don't like the use of it. Just use the "and" word.
    Heres what I got when using the symbol:
        xmlParseEntityRef: no name
    


  • Do NOT use double quotes in XML. My generator auto adds that, so if you put then in yourself, you will break the syntax in the CFG.
  • Do not try using special characters in XML, as you can get weird errors from the parsing.


What NOT to do in a Mod Menu PERIOSad Awesome

  • Do NOT use double quotes while setting a variable string, it breaks syntax. Example:
        
    set a "clantag "abcd" " <-- bad syntax on CFG even though this is not programming.




Hope this clears up any confusion..

Nice, but I don't think it needs to be stickied. These are some obvious Not-To-Do's. Your XML Generator, as a whole, should be stickied though.

not sure if this is sticky worthy YET, you would need a LOT more and just to let you know, you have 3 or 4 things in there twice.
