Title: Loading screen doesn't show up
Post by: TopAce on November 12, 2003, 11:26:52 am

I am facing a minor(but annoying) problem with any versions of FSO(It works with the retail version, so this is a reason I post this problem here, not the FreeSpace Modding forum).
I have an 1024x768 PCX image, with Indexed colors(256 colors).
I am also using a custom 'loading bar', but it works at both FreeSpace versions(FSO and Retail). I am just enquiring if it is a known problem, or it happens only with me.

The data you should know:
Game started from Launcher
GeForce 4 MX440, Default settings
1024x768x16 screen resolution setting, Direct3D8 method.
Fix GeForce problem checked(tried to uncheck, but it still didn't work, evidently, because I post it.)
I use the -startgame flag at the beginning

If you have any suggestion how to go on, please share it with me.

Thanks all in advance.

Not the mission is the problem. I can run any of the missions, but the loading screen won't appear.

revert to the old files then add them back one at a time
