Title: 3d models in armament select screen not working.
Post by: antsa on November 07, 2023, 12:59:04 pm

Hello,

I installed FSO fresh from Knossos and everything seems to be working correctly except 3d-models for weapons and ships in the loadout screen.

global commandline shows: "-ship_choice_3d -weapon_choice_3d", no joy.

Tested also inputing command line to mod specific custom flags, no joy either.

3d models seem to be only working on BP correctly, tested this on port upgrade and fs2.

Thoughts?

In FSO 23.0+ the option to enable 3D in the Ship and Weapon Loadout-screen is no longer governed by command line flags but through gamesettings.tbl (or a -mod.tbm) on a per mod basis. If I remember correctly this is meant to support an upcoming overhaul of the UI.

That the command line appears to work for BP can have two reasons: 1) BP is, by design, using a build older than FSO 23.0. 2) BP has the requisite table settings.

Thank you for the answer.

Will be waiting patiently for the new UI, cheers!
