Title: Little Problem
Post by: ZeroCooL on June 29, 2011, 11:56:05 am

Hello, HLP!

I have a problem
I've been practicing like putting together a file for the launcher read, and tried to place the GTF Kelpie in the mod (I love that ship), put it all quite well
but I have 2 problems,

1) do not see the shield icon in the HUD
2) When you receive enemy fire, which impacts on the shield
the game crashes


How do I fix this?

Thank you very much! :D

First, when modding, get into the habit of using debug builds only. They will tell you when they see something wrong.

Second, when reporting crashes, always post an fs2_open.log (which is generated by said debug builds). For further information, see the FSO FAQ stickied in FSO Support.

Yes, everything is placed well, should work now.

Uhh, yes, that looks superficially correct.

But seriously, you need to use a debug build, because it will show you where you made mistakes.

Every open release has a debug build, but I recommend you using the latest nightly build.

Here, please. Since you have problems with modding. If you had trouble trying to get the game itself running, you could go to Support.
