Freespace 2 Model Troubleshooting Manual Released!
on: May 17, 2003, 08:08:28 pm
Because of the popularity of the Post MODding Manual, I have decided to release my second manual regarding FS2 MODding.  This time its the FS2 Model Troubleshooting Manual.  It contains [almost] every ailment that a FS2 model can have.  It ranges from geometry problems to inverted textures and full-fledged directions on solving them.

Download: http://mysite.verizon.net/vze1lyx2/dump/Trouble.zip

Admin: Please "stickify" this and post it in the news.  Thanks.

Any chance of an update to this so we know what a problem actually looks like. After all whats the visual difference in FS2 (and modelview) between non-flat faces and intersecting polygons? A simple text description is all that is needed, but it would help people like me. Thanks.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

The fighter pictured is the Turanic "Bandit" Interceptor.  I have a large cache of selected Homeworld ships ready for conversion into FS2.  Half of them aren't textured FS2 style.

Also, I have released a preliminary web version of the manual.  Please check the siggy and head to the development section of Attempted Suicides.
