Help with console.log file

by Aisle 5 Games, Inc. · in Torque Game Builder · 10/07/2008 (9:24 pm) · 3 replies

Is there a way to keep the console.log file from being created? We have a distributior that considers it a debug log which they do not allow in their builds.

I believe the logging is in console.cc.

Thats a sad thing to hear, since as we already know theres no way to deliver a bugfree software... and if you dont have that log, how do you detect what the problem is, and where, how and when it happened?...

anyway, if you get to know how to disable the creation of the log file, let us know, a lil bit of info wont hurt me.

Here is what our programmer came up with on how to disable the creation of the log file:


Then in main.cs - change this line:

$logModeSpecified = false;

to

$logModeSpecified = true;

Then specify the log mode:

setlogmode(0); //"0" disables console.log creation

Also, make the console inaccessible to the player by unbinding the tilde:

GlobalActionMap.unbind(keyboard, tilde);
