Title: Error in Into the Halls of Valhalla on Knossos
Post by: Colossus on February 23, 2018, 09:36:27 am
So I'm playing this on Knossos and it's been pretty cool so far. Unfortunately, I've come across a problem. After the mission in which you have to scan the Valhalla and the cruisers, the next mission fails to load, with this error message:

Code: [Select]
Error: Can't open model file <gtibretonia.pof>
File: modelread.cpp
Line: 1062

Edit: Ah, I think I found the log I created.

Can you tell me in which mission that is?

Or better say, what was the last mission you played? Look in the Technical Database if you did not know.

Then i will look into that. I have to say, that the bugfixes of the missions are also a few years old already, as i created them for a video playthrough back then.

The previous mission was "Something Fishy About This".

Also, I found the location of the log file and attached it to the OP.

Good thing I'm not dependent on Knossos...

I am uploading a new ItHoV release right at the moment and it should be available in a few minutes.

The update includes next to the GTI Bretonia stuff also a more recent GTF Apollo model and customized flashes.cfg files for all Ships, Beams and Bombs that are used in ItHoV.

While the thing I uploaded is the model that came with the original DL, it has apparently 5 issues...
-Debris offset is wrong
-There are 2 submodels called communicationa and communicationb which should be in seperate LODs
-Needs more paths
-Textures aren't MVP compatible
-No MOI data

Well, it actually works ingame without graphical issues, which was the main purpose my Knossos version.

But i had included a newer one, if i know there is any and where i could find that. Even in more recent modification it seems that this model is still the same.

Yeah it looks like nobody ever bothered to fix it. And at least it doesn't break things.

Figured I'd update here even though it's old.  Don't know if anyone will see this honestly but figured I'd report it.

The mission :   Old Friend, New Enemy  just fails to load.  - Attempt to load failed.

Interesting, how such errors can pop up out of nowhere.

Yeah, apparently i have to check all missions again after a while.

The "Old Friend, New Enemy" mission has a small SEXP error.  The attached mission has the fix.

Should be updated also.

Find some other small errors, that were reported by Debug Builds. Should fixed as well.

Could be, that some of the nameplates do not work anymore however, as ItHoV was switched to the current MediaVPs as well.
