Title: can't see mod models in fred 2
Post by: freespacefanatic73 on February 28, 2007, 06:20:26 pm

Wassup guys,
I'm starting to get pretty fluent in fred, but i have a question for advance fredders. I wasn't quite sure who to ask but here goes. I wanted the old Apollo and the old Valkyrie in my fred 2 missions as pirate fighter craft. Well i went through hell and highwater and exported them both from freespace 1 into freespace 2 open  3.9.6. They work and they are fully functional in frespace 2 along with all the freespace 2 ship roster. My only issue is when i start fredding. The ships are on the fred list, i can place them wherever I want and they work in custom missions. The only thing is that I can't see the full models in fred even with the show models tab checked. Any advise will be greatly appreciated as always

Thanks

PS I wasn't sure if this question was appropriate for the modding forum so  i put it here on the fred forum because it seems to only not show the extra models in fred.

There might be problems with using fs1 pofs in fs2. I seem to recall the pofs have different version numbers, so there might be problems...

Anyways, why not just grab them from the FreeSpace Port? (With credit, of course.)

HTL Apollo (http://files.filefront.com/Apollo_HTLvp/;6656316;;/fileinfo.html)

Its not in the MediaVP's yet, but its worth having (it looks awesome!)
