(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi, I've Been Working On A 1.11 Patch For A While Now And I Just Transferred These Hacks To Play Them Online On My OFW PS3. It Was All Fine When I Spent AGES Testing Relentlessly On My CFW PS3, And I Believed I Had Fixed Everything. However, I was playing this patch in a private match with 3 of my friends and i got Two errors:

1: In My Mod Menu Lobby, I Had A Full 18 Player Lobby (14 were bots) and I had AC130 bullets, etc. In Short, Alot Of Shiz Was Going On. And I Got The Following Error:
"MAX_GAMESTATE_CHARS exceeded"

2: In AI Zombies Extreme I Got The Following Error (Cant Tell A Specific Time This Occurs, It Just Decides To Do It Sometimes):
"script runtime error"
"exceeded maximum number of parent script variables"

I've searched, and I can't find A clear straight-to-the-point statement of why this happens, so if you know, could you please tell me how I can fix these issues?

-Thanks

For the first error, max chars is characters so its most likely to many objects, or too much text in the patch, and for the second error, I get it too when I use AI zombies, but I just go back to private match and start and it starts zombies. Its just a quick overflow - Hope I helped if not sorry man

1st problem: Too many text strings.

Fix: Don't use as many text strings.

2nd: Undefined variable/array

Fix: Get [115]Death to do it :download:

Thanks, I Originally Thought That The Error Came from too many Shaders, Hence I Made My Menu Only Have One. But I Remember In The Yardsale V7 Patch Thread Taylor Mentioned Something About A "\n fix"? Could This Be The Problem? Because In My Menu There Are Alot Of "\n" as I Added Alot of Descriptions. I'm Assuming Then, That There Is A Problem With The \n. Do You Know How To Fix It? Or Am I Just Screwed?

-Thanks for the help

I think your misunderstanding what a \n overflow fix is...

In most menus nowadays, a new text string gets created for each new line of text.

What the \n fix does, is it makes all the text one string. This reduces the amount of strings in the game substantially...

Shaders are not your problem when dealing with the following error:

"MAX_GAMESTATE_CHARS Exceeded"


That error is caused by too many characters in the game

Thanks For the help, I understand my problem now. (Please correct me if i'm wrong)...Bacally I've Made The Text In My Menu Really Small So I Can Scram Loads Of Text In At Once So You Can See Loads Of Options Without Pages...I'm Assuming This Is What's Causing My Error?

No, I don't think so, something else might be causing your error.

A Text string can only have 1054 characters ( or something like that ).

Because it says, "MAX_GAMESTATE_CHARS" exceeded, you might need to reduce the amount of characters in that string.

I'm not sure, it's just a guess for now...you can try it and see if it works Winky Winky
