Re: Planets and asteroid adventures (split from A celebration of Freespace)
Tell me the texture name.
Or just change it to a retail texture, like I did, because it takes like two seconds, and a brain-dead monkey could do it.

Open the POF in PCS2, go to the thing on the left hand panel that says TEXTURES. Expand the list. There's the texture list! Wasn't so hard, was it?

Just click on the texture name that causes pink lines to appear over the white stuff (on the inside, signifying missing textures), go to the right hand side panel, and type in a different texture name, like TCOV1 or something else that's present in retail (hell, you could even check the rest of the list for textures that do work). Then hit reload textures to admire you handiwork, then save the POF. OH GOD, HOW DIFFICULT.

He's right though, there's no need to behave like such a prick.

There's definitely a need. People should know how to do this trivial stuff so that we can discuss the real problems.
No one ever taught me and I figured it all out in like ten seconds flat. I hold everyone else up to that expectation.

I don't have any brain dead monkeys close at hand at the moment. Could you lend me yours?

That's basically asking for the impossible then.

A lot of people are impaitent and don't try learning for themselves before they complain about something not being right.

TBH, that station was designed to be used with FOW: COTS anyway.
I don't know why it was released without some textures, but it could have been done on request from somebody who knew how to mod.

I hold everyone else up to that expectation.

Then I should just as un-realistically hold everyone else to the same expectations that I hold myself to.

And if it were true, we wouldn't have General Discussion or Technical Support topics or having the Monkey system or having to Ban anybody except spam bots.

And there you go. Now stop whining about "but why?" like a spoiled child and play nice with the manners every body needs to employ for the sake of civility please.

Evidently not everyone is as interested or adept in the technical side of the game as you.  It is absurd to expect everyone to have the same abilities as you in every area.

Re: Planets and asteroid adventures (split from A celebration of Freespace)
Well my train of thought is that if you were intending to mod, you should be as interested in the technical side of the game...otherwise you're throwing stuff together and randomly hoping it works.

Sorry for being a prick, was in a rather foul mood :P

IIRC, I never released it as a separate download. It is possible there whoever pacekd it missed a texture. I DO have 1-2 textures that look like valinna ones, but with a different name and a tweak or two, which I sometimes use, so I see how someone might miss it.

Still, no big deal and easy to fix. So what's all the fuss about?
