You know, I thought this was fixed in the final release.

Of cource, I am so tired I amost don't know what I'm talking about (realy I am), so I maybe simply talking bull****.

Please help. Please...

If it is, the Ravanas are using custom beams.
Not FSU's fault.

Post by: Commander Zane on January 02, 2009, 11:39:29 pm: Those are custom beams, the beams that the Ravana normally uses (Applies for most other Shivan large beam weapons with the exception of BFRed) have white plasma (Lightning) crackling through the center.

Post by: Aardwolf on January 04, 2009, 05:25:16 am: Uh... those words don't even rhyme. Just having the same final consonant or vowel sound does not constitute a rhyme.

Post by: Narvi on January 04, 2009, 07:05:47 am: You might have done this already.

But I don't care. I'm too cool for you.

Anyway. Try downloading the fixed fixed HTL Ravana (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,56604.0.html) from here. It should work if the custom beams are the trouble.

Post by: Vasudan Admiral on January 04, 2009, 07:45:05 am: Uh, no it won't - and you'd just be using an older version of the Ravana than is in the new MVPs. ;)

Here, place this TBM in "blueplanet\data\tables" (creating it if it doesn't exist) and it should correct the beam warmup glow missing problem. Basically all it's doing is re-asserting the warmup glow name that the MVPs use by default.

Post by: Romanmolf on January 04, 2009, 12:13:27 pm: Thx. Hope it solves the problem.

Post by: Commander Zane on January 04, 2009, 02:17:44 pm: I just don't see why the beams are changed from HRed back to LRed, what's the difference between the two really other than the fact one has a broken glow effect and looks like a Retail beam?

Post by: Droid803 on January 04, 2009, 02:51:43 pm: I believe that the HRed does more damage.
