Ok, I'm working on a ship called the Autolycus, I've compiled the ship fine, and it appears in Fred, the only mistake I made was to run it the first time round without changing the ship name from Ulysses, which I changed afterwards.

Now, whenever I run the game it refuses to work with this model I get the following error...

Code: [Select]
Warning: There are 3 primary banks in the model file,
but only 2 primary banks in mv_textures-shp.tbm for GTF Autolycus

File:C:\temp\fs2_open_3_6_9.t\code\ship\Ship.cpp
Line: 8189
[This filename points to the location of a file on the computer that built this executable]

Call stack:
------------------------------------------------------------------
    ship_create()    parse_create_object_sub()    parse_create_object()    mission_parse_maybe_create_parse_object()    post_process_ships_wings()    post_process_mission()    parse_mission()    parse_main()    mission_load()    game_start_mission()    game_enter_state()    gameseq_set_state()    game_process_event()    gameseq_process_events()    game_main()------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I'm certain this is a knock-on effect of something, since the sum contents of mv_texture-shp.tbm is :-

Code: [Select]
#Ship Classes
$Name: SC Cain
$POF file: cruiser03x.pof
#End

And I think that's missing a +nocreate....

Anyway, before I put this on Mantis, any suggestions as to what is going on here?

Edit : I've tried emptying the cache just in case defining it as the Ulysses pof had broken the ibx or something, but that had no effect :(

Small update, I've managed to get it into the mission and running with weapons, but the moment I go to the weapons loadout screen it turns back into a Uly. Also, it defaults to Uly when I load the mission, I have to add the Autolycus as a selectable ship in Fred and then choose it.

I'll keep looking and make sure it's not down to user error somewhere.

Heh, I'm still looking at the file, one of the problems was the ship had 3 primary banks, changing it to one 4-point and one 2-point seemed to fix that problem, but not the main one. If I have no luck, I'll post the table tomorrow :)

Just to let you know, I found the problem, where I had saved the Fred mission before I changed the ship back from three primaries, hence the confusion. Problem solved :)

(Some) validity checks are done after the ships are loaded, so the filename in the error message will be whatever the last file loaded was.
