yes it is custom tables, you have a weapon named "Prometheus" somewere in you're ship table, but it isn't in the weapons tables

these will be the zips I update for this from now on
EXEs
maps

note: amung other things I made the error mesages a lot more informative
for example:
it should tell you wich ship and wich list that error is in

and never click yes on those things if you don't want to debug it (wich would require you have MSVC running or something similar, and no it does not fix anything)

it should already, just be a good idea to fix the table problem it sees, do it once and you'll never have to again :)

It's much more effective when you have rows of them. :)

I stand corrected, dude the effects look awesome... i noticed not all the ships have this glow effect implemented (not the cargo containers, the mod fighters like the GTF Banshee for example). Also for my ships, there not enhanceed,  but then i noticed that only maps already used in FS2 are enhanced, since my maps are not standard maps, how do i go about enhancing my ships lights?

you make a glow map :)

take the texture of you're ship and make it how you  think it should look with no outside ilumination, the effect looks best if you take into acount things like reflection.

two good methods would be
1 simply raising the contrast super high, this is only good for ships that have simple colors as iluminated (most fs1 fighters)

2 if there is a specific color (like shivan red) do a color chanel split, add the two colors (for shivans this would be green and blue) you don't want together and divide by 2 then subtract the green+blue/2 from the red, then ether colorize it or multiply it by the origonal source texture

the last step simply name the texture"name of sorce texture"-glow as an 8 bit palitized pcx file

feel free to look at the glow maps I have included, might be good to practice on some of the textures I missed

Bob: Just checking, for one thing. For another, let's just say stealth bombers aren't very stealthy when they've got lots of lights all over 'em.

Yea, but I always thought that todays stealth (well maybe not in real life.. whatever) was based more on sensor/radar hampering, not actually visibility, not that it nescasarriyl helps if you have a stealth suite but look like a christmas tree...

I'm talking my own stealth bomber mod. Which is stuck in TrueSpace, because I hate POF-editing.

And the Pegasus you could still eyeball and nail with primaries. Mine, heatseekers only (and regular mechanical failures of the stealth device, letting you lock on to it):D
