Okay! I got a slight problem and maybe someone can lend me a hand.
Long story short, I'm trying to make it so I can add items into containers. It worked at first, then suddenly.. BAM, nothing. Here's where it sits:
What I did, was get NVScript.osm and load it into MedSci1.mis. And I set the objects I wanted to be stored by setting their Tool Action in "Engine Features->FrobInfo" to Script. And then of course, adding "NVPutIntoContainers" into "S->Scripts"
At first, all seemed good. I could throw items into the containers, save, load, exit, reload, switch levels, ect.. and it was all persistant and working great. I closed things out, went to bed. Next morning, my items are still in the containers from last night, and I can pull them out, but I can't put anything in any containers at all anymore.
Nothing's changed since last night, but to be sure, I checked the Object info to make sure the Scripts and FrobInfo were still set, and checked MedSci1.mis to make sure it was still loading NVScript.osm.
"WARNING: Failed to load script module: NVScript"
So I tried loading it again
"Unable to load Module!"
And from this point on, the script module will not load anymore. I even put a new copy in the folder. I even re-downloaded it. Heck, I even typed "script_load NVScript" in game to try and load it from that point. No error in game, but wasn't working either.
Anyway, if anybody has an idea, I'd greatly appreciate the help! Here's my SS2 specs, in case you need them:
System Shock 2 version 2.42
ShockEd Toolkit 1.1
Updated ShockED that comes with the 2.42 patch
Mods used: Rebirth, SHTUP, Misc model/texture replacers by Vurt, my own personal models/textures

Which version of NVScript are you using?
Solar on 29/3/2013 at 23:54
I'm using v1.1.0
Update:
Okay, I found the issue, as strange as it sounds.
The problem? Background programs somehow were causing problems. If I had another game open, even minimized, for example, the script module would not load. I'm not sure why this happens, but just closing Warcraft fixed it. And earlier when I first had the problem, StarCraft was open in the background.. Maybe my Shock just hates Blizzard? lol
Anyway, thanks for your reply earlier Nameless. I'm sorry to have wasted your time

v1.1.0 is quite old. There was a bug in older versions where Dark (more specifically, Windows' special security / compatibility settings for Dark) would refuse to let the NVScript module load.
No idea why, but I think it stopped happening in later versions of NVScript.
Maybe you should try (

Ah, thank you so much. I'll update my end right away. I didn't realize I had an outdated version. Maybe that's the issue I had and not background programs
