There are some problems on "As lightning fall" with the latest builds...

When I approach the "beacon 1", "the beacon 2" should be revealed ? This is not happening, making this mission nigh impossible to complete...
Secondy, Is this the "recovery ship" supposedly called via reinforcement command, I can't call anyone.

When I played the mission on the
1/28/06 build, all the beacons were already visible, making the mission "baby snack", but I still could not call that recovery ship, when I reached the NTT Grall.

I think targeting works fine. I mean Nav beacons do not get inmediatly targeteable, they just appear as blinking dark grey points in the radar. You have to get closer to get them targeteable.

But the reinforce calling is definitely broken. I'm going to mantis it. Maybe it's related with 691 bug.
IF YOU HAVE TROUBLES WITH FS2:
  • Please, please, please, READ and UNDERSTAND the sticky threads in FreeSpace & FreeSpace Open Support board.
    A lot of people are willing to help you, but, as anyone can understand, seeing the very same "issues" repeated again and again can become quite depressing. Please, spend a bit of time trying to solve the issue by yourself.
    (Lobo deserves a monument).
  • Then, if you aren't still able to solve your issue, feel free to ask for help in that same board.
    FYI, most of the troubles are caused by wrong mod installations which lead to either missing data or undesired cross-effects between them. Always follow the mod installation instructions and keep a clean FS2 installation as explained in the sticky threads. Two additional links about how the game handles game data:
  • If you think that you've discovered a bug, mantis it.
    Provide as much info as you can, and try to narrow it down. A lonely "FS2 doesn't work" is not a good report.

Well, the bug with the Port mission I mentioned is fixed.

There is however a rendering error that appears after extended play. Ships get the wrong textures - I think it also affects the HUD, though I can't say 100%. Got a screencap of it, but it's pretty big (2048x1536).

turn off -img2dds. that's exactly what happened to me. don't use it until the coders fix it.

I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

 
-img2dds wasn't on.  When it's on, I get something much weirder, ghost ships.

well, not only that, but you get the radar map for an insignia on a perseus. :p

well, i guess -img2dds doesn't fit this equation...

I know its extra work for you, but any chance of throwing up a sentence or two saying what got updated in the new CVS? I'm curious what gets changed, thats all.

Me too, would like to know, (unless it's something very minor).
Bigger updates 'n stuff are usually anounced in the other threads in style "It's in CVS now"
Aside from that, if you have any extra time, little line or two of "what's updated" would be very informative.
Keep up the good work :yes:

Me too, having a small Change Log / History file would be really helpful to identify bug's sources, and which build were introduced.
