OK, I just noticed a bug with HT&L... it seems the glowpoints are being offset too much from the model's center. Try out one of the [few] glowpointed ships out there and you'll see what I mean.

Those lights should be fluch with the hull, but they are not. It works fine in non-HT&L so it's not the POF.

yes, the targetting brackets around targetted ships will also be misaligned if you turn right / left and the ship hardly is in your FOV anymore.
-
We're working on that right now. The projection matrix isn't getting set properly.
-
On closer observation, the glowpoints are wrong in the techroom but correct in game. However, glowpoints are also visable through objects in game, so they still aren't quite right.

i found a new bug where the modelview stack isn't popped fully when the frame ends.. causes some horrible visual bugs
-
I was wondering how long it was going to take people to realize that I didn't fix glow points yet, if things don't get used they don't get suported, largly becase I won't have anything to test
I'll see about getting it fixed after I get everything else working
-
That's cuz the glowmaps are so much cooler =D
-
Yeah but why make a 40-frame+ custom glowmap animation, and apply an additional texture to one specific ship part (HT&L no-no) just to have a blinking navigation light. They may be underused, but they're a good feature that needs to be preserved.
And Bobboau, I only noticed it because I have the only non-fighter ship to be glowpointed yet (as far as I know). And it's pretty obvious when the running lights blink through a station. I have, however, finally gotten HT&L working, much to my satisfaction if the crash-to-desktop issues ever get resolved.
