Title: Mainhall Mask Missing?
Post by: x3110 on May 21, 2010, 04:31:20 pm

Whenever i run blueplanet I get a 640*3480 interface art missing error,
COULD NOT LOAD IN MAIN HALL MASK 'MainScreen-M'
I have to play the campaign using shortcuts (R:T:C:B:Esc)
Any idea what might be causing this.
Though not a major problem it's annoying as hell.
The Debug Buid crashes at mainhall.

Just turn up the resolution in the Launcher's graphics tab. Why are you playing on 640x480 anyway!?

Also, I thought this got patched.

x3110: Please, for the love of kittens, read the Troubleshooting FAQ (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=56279.0) before posting issues.

captain-custard: No. Default settings in the Launcher do that.

Any idea what might be causing this.

When you play with a low enough resolution (640x480, for example), the game will try to use the 640x480 interface art instead of the 1024x768 interface art. But, mods with their own interface art do not usually supply the 640x480 version of the interface art. Because creating it would be yet another strain and if you can succesfully play BP or ASW or the likes, you can really play at 1024x768 or higher.

And yes, if you haven't touched the "Video" tab of the Launcher, you are playing at 640x480. Please go and correct that.

I corrupted the hi res version of game textures and Playing at 640x480 ever since.
Actually game works at 640x480 by copying mainhall.tbl(original) into bp directory anyway but i miss the bp mainhall
Guess i'll have to look for my backup dvd now!
Thanks anyway!

It did, but no BP updates have been released to public since then.

If you have it on DVD, then why don't you just re-install it?
I'm pretty sure that, since the SCP/FSU stuff is all in their own VP and exe files putting a new install right over the old one woudn't even require "reinstalling" SCP, FSU and any mods.

That's the problem I can't find it :blah:.
But i think i can manage by the shorcuts(Thought useless at first but they are very useful).
