Author Topic: Engine glow bug?  (Read 3023 times)

Look at the attached screencapture. I don't think that's how they're supposed to look like. They look fine in FS2 main campaign, but not in Fsport. And it's the same problem with all ships. If anyone knows how to fix this, I'd appreciate the help.

For some reason, you're missing the thrusterglows. You're seeing just the thruster trails (or rather, the flames, but technically they are trails - not to be mixed up with afterburner trails).

Which version of FSPort are you running? Are you using mediaVP's in conjunction with FSPort?
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

 
The FSPort version is 3.0.4 and yes, I am using mediaVPs with the FSPort.

What build are you using? Also, it never hurts to run a debug build and then post the fs2_open.log from \freespace2\data.

That did it! It was probably the superfluous vp files in the fsport folder that messed things up. Thanks for your help.
