Who's ready to have your mapmaking lives made easier with the new python widget (for lack of better words) I made?
• Copies selected map file on UDK save
• Moves it to cookedpc
• Renames to UPK
• Creates backup folder
• Moves Overwritten UPK to backup folder
• AutoLoads Map into Rocket League```

Like the idea, but isn't there also a bakkesmod plugin that also moves files when you save in udk?
golden relic
https://bakkesplugins.com/plugins/view/187 this was the one I was thinking of
ripe slate
Yeah I like using that one for sure. That one is a little bit different. To me its more of an easier to test than Rocket Plugin solution.
This one is windows based so you don't need to have BM or rocket league open and it will copy and paste your map file from your UDK folder to cookedpc folder every time you hit save on UDK. And renames it to UPK for you.
If you really wanted to you could use this for any file format. With a little bit of change in the code. Which I might do now...

My little widget:
• Copies selected map file on UDK save
• Moves it to cookedpc
• Renames to UPK
• Creates backup folder
• Moves Overwritten UPK to backup folder
• AutoLoads Map into Rocket League

You could even make the map load automatically once it's moved by sending a command to bakkesmod through rcon
that would be even cooler
ripe slate
Lmfao bro…. You’re killing me… I just might look into that
astral patio
Ah you use the mods folder "skinner pathetic gif here" I rename it utopia, I think swaggles has a .bat that does something similar
ripe slate
Lol yeah I hate map swapping
ripe slate

Got the rough draft working now I just gotta finalize it.

What are the 4 parts? Split to send via Discord?
ripe slate
Exactly
golden relic
Do I need something to merge it back together or can I download it and use it?
ripe slate
Just download it, run part1.exe (that builds the parts) then, after it’s done extracting run AMM.exe
golden relic
Alright, I don't know if I do it tonight but otherwise I'll do it later this week(end)
ripe slate
All good, I'm going out of town this weekend, thank you.
golden relic
ripe slate
hmm... anyone get a chance to try this...
golden relic
Have it downloaded but was not able to launch rocket league for some reason, when I've fixed that I'll try it
ripe slate
sheesh when was the last time you played?
golden relic
A couple of days ago, but I'm bad at remembering small tasks 
. Keep coming up with other small tasks like creating more twitter accounts
astral patio
I'll be free in one hour I think, tell me how can I be of help boss
Do I need to have BM running?
golden relic
No, to install follow #1082365602280263701 message and fill in the paths from the first image in this post
astral patio
Aight, my laptop rebooted 3 times this week because of the blue screen of death so let's test it I'm sure it'll be fine
stop monitoring me leeroy
mm question
is it only for steam users?
may I humbly suggest to only have 3 backups or N backups laptop full like ravioli
golden relic
is it only for steam users?
Don't think so as the first image shows epic games in the file path
golden relic
I don't know what could cause the map loading failed error, I guess you need to monitor countrymo more @ripe slate
astral patio
puts on second pair of underwear*
ripe slate
good catch, my level isn't launching tho
Probably dont have RL open or Bakkesmod on...
The map load error will happen when it can't send the RCON command
Umm.... I could probably make a box saying how many backups you want to save.. But 3 could go quick with 3 quick UDK saves
ripe slate
I don't know what could cause the map loading failed error, I guess you need to ...
thanks for the tag i probably would have never seen the @astral patio questions
astral patio
bm is running but the loading still failes
do I need a specific plugin installed?
or enabled
ripe slate
mmm okay... where is your BakkesmodFolder located?
astral patio
rcon plugin is enabled in bm if it helps
ripe slate
haha yes it does.
astral patio
appdata roaming
ripe slate
\AppData\Roaming\bakkesmod\bakkesmod?
astral patio
yessir
astral patio
ya
ripe slate
aight one sec
ripe slate
in your program I mean
do you have python? I could do a print to console
astral patio
how do you open that console
ripe slate
well what i sent is like a compiled version of the script so as far as i know there is no way
i could send you the raw python file
astral patio
if you guide me I can do whatever you want
ripe slate
lol... well actually... ill send you an new exe to replace one of the ones in the file... probably easier
ripe slate
Mo did you get to a chance to press "f6" and check the bakkesmod console
astral patio
what I mean is how do you guess the bm folder
could it be useful to input that as well?
astral patio
how do you open that console
that's what i was asking lol
ripe slate
the BM folder is figured out by grabbing the app/roaming from your pc... bakkesmod_folder = str(os.getenv('APPDATA') + '/bakkesmod/bakkesmod').replace('\\', '/')
astral patio
nothing happens in bm console btw
ripe slate
replace this in the subprocesses folder of automatic mover
ripe slate
nothing happens in bm console btw
no errors nothing?
astral patio
ripe slate
you scrolled through (i only ask because i had to)
astral patio
still nothing
ripe slate
hmmm
okay so the new exe i sent you to replace in the subprocess folder i added a command to print the bakkesmod folder and the rcon password
so if those dont pop up we know there something wrong there
astral patio
nothing happens at all in the console
ripe slate
astral patio
ripe slate
you replace the exe?
astral patio
ehm
ripe slate
youre being sneaky only showing me half the of the text in the black window 😉
ripe slate
haha no the part2 is because the exe is 9mb so i had to send it it two parts
the winrar will unzip it to one file
astral patio
i'll extract it there then
ripe slate
thanks for the help i know this is a pain in the butt
astral patio
ok so
currently i'm here
and it doesnt let me extract part2.rar
explain it to me like i'm five
ripe slate
okay let me explain this to you
IM A FUCKING MORON. I ONLY SENT YOU ONE OF THE TWO FILES. 
astral patio
my idea is to do it all again an renaming it to automaticmapmoverpart2
ah so im missing the one with cfg and subprocess maybe
ripe slate
trying to send you part 1 now but it randomly disappeared
astral patio
maybe I stole it
ripe slate
bro windows is so smart its dumb and quaratined it
astral patio
puts on third pair of underwear*
ripe slate
alright so now if you run that then it will make AMMwatcher.exe and then you can replace the one you got now in subprocess folder
ripe slate
puts on third pair of underwear*
Bro i tell you i feel dumb right now lol
astral patio
mm
i don't think u'll like what i'm about to say
but i'll move the wtcher in the subprocess i guess
ripe slate
yes perfect
ripe slate
I'm assuming the issue is the rcon just gotta figure out why
astral patio
sweats in HDD
ripe slate
lol better delete those save you some room
astral patio
Did you install the rcon?
ripe slate
no it was built in to bakkesmod
ripe slate
\AppData\Roaming\bakkesmod\bakkesmod\bakkesmodsdk\bakkes_pathplugin.py can you open in notepad and send me the bakkesmod_server... should be line 14.
trying to find out what is different between yours and mine
also if you have better stuff to do i need to mow the lawn
astral patio
5 min an ill go
which port do you use in your program?
in line 14 I have the 127.0.0.1 and the port
which is pretty weird that it uses that port since I think I'm using it for something else
astral patio
I have the 9002 as well
ripe slate
astral patio
I thought I was using it for a program but I stopped it and stil nthing on f6
you can mow the lawn I 'll try again in an hour i think
ripe slate
you know what i didnt .rstrip(" ") the password for spaces. maybe thats why
astral patio
where should I paste that
ripe slate
oh id have to recompile the watcher and send it again lol
i dont think thats whats wrong... but i guess it could be who knows... alright im going to go mow and give it some thought. thank you for all the help
astral patio
hah
yeah replacing line 13 with my bakke plugin dir worked
HELL YEAH THAT SAVES TIME
astral patio
the BM folder is figured out by grabbing the app/roaming from your pc... ```bakk...
maybe you wrote
bakkesmod_folder = str(os.getenv('APPDATA') + '/bakkesmod/bakkesmod').replace('\\', '/') instead of
bakkesmod_folder = str(os.getenv('APPDATA') + '/bakkesmod/bakkesmod/plugins').replace('\\', '/') idkk
ripe slate
I think we might need a couple more people to see if my computer is different than others
golden relic
And what if we have identical computers? ||/s||
ripe slate
sheesh yall brothers?
@astral patio do you have \AppData\Roaming\bakkesmod\bakkesmod\data\rcon_commands.cfg?
Does it have rcon_refresh_allowed and load_workshop in it?
golden relic
So I have bakkesmod and rocket league now open. Do I now only need the last 2 AMMwatcher parts or also the first 4?
astral patio
randommaps.cfg the hell is this
golden relic
I think that is a bakkesmod configuration file
astral patio
i think just the 4 should be fine
if that doesn t load ur level then download the last 2
ripe slate
So I have bakkesmod and rocket league now open. Do I now only need the last 2 AM...
First 4 i sent... the second two were only for country
astral patio
a little monitoring
golden relic
Yeah it works. Great addition that it loads the map with bakkesmod
ripe slate
lol i owe the credit to @pure terrace
pure terrace
I did nothing lol, I just pointed you to the right direction
astral patio
It is
astral patio
yeah replacing line 13 with my bakke plugin dir worked
I did this and it works like a charm
ripe slate
Bro I never noticed you said it was working lol. Really though that doesn’t make any sense because mines set to steam but I use epic and my app doesn’t use that file at all… I was just curious if somehow your rcon ip was different. So weird
astral patio
Idk lol it worked after I changed that😂 great job btw, will definitely use it a lot
astral patio
I bet no one mows the lawn like you do
ripe slate
Gah damn you sweet talking me. Bought me one of these commercial mowers (but mine is used)… best purchase for the house ever.
astral patio
Damn looks fresh out of farming simulator lmao
ripe slate
hahahaha true dat. I don't have a huge lot (.25 acres in american) but i got lots of trees and hills so the ole push mower would take 2+ hours i can get it done in 45 mins or less with this bad boy
astral patio
Lmao my man got acres, that's a Winnie the Pooh unity of measurement
Still 45 min that's quite impressive actually
ripe slate
Lmfao I have 1/4 of one acre my bad.
Winnie the Pooh was the shit
Eeyore is my spirit animal.
astral patio
lol tbf depending on the day we can see ourselves in one of the characters
I'm mostly Ih-Oh
that reminds be of that fantastic game of winnie the pooh where I was Tigro and had to collect all the honey, that was an incredibly challenging game
ripe slate
Lmfao never heard of it
astral patio
Lmfao never heard of it
https://youtu.be/g2k1LHHzg5I best game hands down (apparently it's not 4k HDR like I remember it)
low path
@ripe slate getting some errors:
ripe slate
oh i see for some reason it didnt write the csv file. maybe try running as admin
low path
Ok it looks like its working now! Whats the optimal workflow for this? Im used to using the bat script to copy over utopia retro, but this seems like it just takes the file name and changes the extension to upk. Im assuming I should be using the bakkes mod map loader in this case?
ripe slate
It makes a back up, puts a new copy of UPK, then launches it in rl if rl is open
As soon as you hit save in udk it runs
low path
It makes a back up, puts a new copy of UPK, then launches it in rl if rl is open
What should my destination folder be?
ripe slate
That’s a great question I would assume cookedpc or cookedpc/mods. But I’m wondering if it’s possible to have it anywhere now that you ask.
low path
alright i have it in the mods folder it seems like everything is working great. Great job @ripe slate . Although it unfortunately didnt fix my problem. Im still getting the original issue I wrote in about where I dont see changes until I close RL and re-open. super frustrating cause it just starting doing this outta nowhere. Cant think of much that has changed in the last month... maybe its a windows 11 thing??
low path
really excited to use this once I get my shit figured out!
ripe slate
Me too!
pure terrace
Just tried it and it works perfect for me 👌
