3.11 worked Great!

Yes aware of virtual envs in other langs too. It's all in VM at the moment so trash the whole thing (or restore to a base install) in case something goes wrong at least.

 

Out of interest what level of permissions is required for the Visual Studio integration (as per the config.json)? I will try my existing user, but could it be best practice to create a separate user specifically for fibemu?

To be honest I only run with admin...

There may be issues as fibemu tries to sync the state of the hc3 to fibemu and if it can't get the data...

On the other hand, fibemu is restrictive on changes synched back to hc3 and there is the --%%remote= directive to allow fibemu to update specific resources.

Well, there are so many things that can be wrong that it's very difficult to say. If you have followed the video step by step you should at least get the test QA in the directory to run.

Msft has a decent intro to vscode

You need to stand in the right directory and use F5 (Run -> Start Debugging)  to run (not the arrow in the upper right corner)

Looks like your .vscode is in examples/. ?
It's important to have the top-level .vscode directory with the right launch.json and settings.json.

Do you have a .vscode on top-level with the subdirectory emuiles/ and is it set as the working directory?
My files look like

I reinstalled again everything according to the video.

Now it seems that i have the same setup as you..

I have run the pip installs, i have installed the local Lua interpreter, created the settings.json i have pressed F5

I really want to get it working, as i had nightmare times finding typos and undefined variables in my code.

Is python correctly installed?
Can you run python3 in the vscode terminal window (at the bottom)

Ok, could it be that you have a space in your username so the path contains "Kiss Zoltan" and some script barfs on that?

Yeah i have space there...This is my Windows user name i think, i dont even know how to change it if needed

 

[jgab 2,122]

Ok, I pushed a new version of launch.json with relative paths - try it and see if it works?

I dont think i can change it to any name wihtout spaces, as in windows account setting it asks for name and sureanem and windows creates this full name with a space in it

Ok, thats progress. Now it's the python library parsing the command line args that don't like your spaces in the path.

 

Can you open launch.json and change

"${file}"

to

"${relativeFile}"

 

It's a couple of places in the file. 

 

See if it works...

Now it barfs on the config.json file - the json format is not correct - you cant't end with a ',' after "fibemuvar":true,

json is more strict than Lua...
