Title: Invisible asteroids (and other things)
Post by: Objekt on December 05, 2007, 09:13:05 pm

I recently reinstalled SCP using Turey's installer.  So, everything is as up-to-date as it can be, right?

Then why don't I see asteroids ever or enemy fighters sometimes?

So far it's just Derelict SCP that's doing this.  Asteroids are invisible, and apparently don't collide with ships, but can be targeted.  For instance, they show up in white brackets, yet never collide with the ship we're supposed to protect.

There is NO image in the target view window for certain enemy fighters, even though I have it turned on, and it worked under my previous SCP install.  So far it's the Hercules that doesn't appear.  The fighters themselves are visible, but they should be drawn in the target view box too.

Derelict SCP worked fine apart from that 9th mission bug on my previous install.  I don't know what went wrong with the new one.

Did you check your graphics settings in the launcher?  I also remember reading something about the jpgtga flag causing something like this.  I could be wrong on that but if you search for invisible asteroids you should be able to find it.  Oh and what version of FS2_Open you running 3.6.9 final or something else?

3.6.9 final = you need jpg,tga flag enabled in the launcher.
