Command Line Problems
I've got the latest builds of FSOpen (both the 3.5.5 and the 1_20_2004 builds) and of the launcher. In having run the launcher and ticking the necessary command lines parameters, I get the following debug message running the 3.5.5 build:
Quote

Error: Unrecogzined command line parameter -htl
File:E:\Languages\Visual Studio Projects\Visual C++\fs2_open\code\Cmdline\cmdline.cpp
Line: 540

Call stack:
------------------------------------------------------------------
    kernel32.dll 77e7eb69()
------------------------------------------------------------------


Replace the "-htl" with -spec, -jpegtga and -glow, as well. I get similar messages running the 1_20 build, just without the debug information and only on -glow and -spec.

Anyone got any ideas?

Nice response.

I'm not sure, but do you have the media VPs and stuff too?

In any case, wait for a coder ;)

 
Yeah, got the latest Media VPs too.

well for one the Lancher 4.x should be used from for builds after 1/15/04. I think that the -htl command line has been removed in favor of having it on by default. the command line to turn it off it -nohtl. this very well could be wrong.
ooooh this makes 500 posts

*edit*
actually I think HTL was added more recently than 3.5.5

Yeah, I noticed the 1_20 build seems to have it on by default, but that still presents the problem of -spec and -glow.

Do you also have "warp.pof" in your main FS2 directory?

-jpegtga
are you using that exactly as I see it there.
i think it should be -jpgtga
and 3.5.5 has the glow points on by default i think and so does 1/20/04(i might be wrong because of the new launcher has -glow tag in it). however more recent builds such as those of bobboau's have glow points off by default.

No warp.pof and I'm using whatever command line for the tga textures that the launcher uses it. Having checked it, it's -jpgtga. That's not an issue in the newest build though.

3.5.5 predates 32 bit image files and DDS files. 3.5.5 is a great stable build, but it lacks in features. But best to wait a couple weeks or more for 3.6. besides the command line arg has changed a few times for 32 bit mage files. I think it was -t32 and then -tga or -jtga. There are other builds that are more recent.

Then go and put warp.pof into both the table directory and main directory.   I don't know if they've fixed this bug yet, but I remember that there were problems way back.

The command lines are in a state of flux right now.  Try the Wiki.

Make sure you are using a recent exe.

How much work would it take to have all these graphics-related command line settings appear somewhere in the detail options menu in the game? Or would that require new interface images?

Bobboau said that -htl is now on by default, so that flag was removed and replaced with -nohtl or something like that. I think that all these graphics settings should be on by default and command line options available to turn them off.

Hopefully the new launcher provides what you want
