Having a spot of bother here....
I've got a capship model that is 4 Lods, with 15 turrets and about 1400 polys, the problem is that, despite the fact that PCS will compile it, and both Aurora and Modelview32 will quite happily load it up (Though modelview does so slowly, since there a a few 512 x 512 textures in there) Fred crashes out with an error in Model.cpp whenever I try to load it, both the standard and the SCP version
My own opinion is that it is either the table entry (which is most likely the problem, I have used a modified Aeolus entry, which I can post if you need, all I've changed are the turrets and the POF name) or it is something to do with the number of large textures (There are about 17 textures in total, about 4 512*512, and the rest are 256 and 128's) but I've seen ships use more smaller materials than this. My only other thought is that there might be some flat double sided polys in the final LOD, since I got fed up and did the last one using Lightwave's LOD plugin, I'm not sure if FS2 likes them
Has anyone else enountered this problem? Sorry I can't be overly specific as the work is for a campaign.
Many thanks
