to quote myself from the DatDB PF, i'm having some trouble with some models.

Quote

As a first, i have one. It has to do with the Archangel. Whenever I add one to a mission in Fred, it locks up, I get this

Error: Can't open file
File:E:\Languages\Visual Studio Projects\Visual C++\fs2_open\code\Model\ModelRead.cpp
Line: 1274

Call stack:
------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------

And my comp locks up for about 10 minutes. I tried it once with the stuff out of the VP and once with the one off Stratt's site and I got the same result.

Edit: Ok I tried it with normal fred and the same thing. I also get the same problem with the Raynor.

I put er' in Fred and it locks up and this. Anyone wanna give it a try?

What version?

EDIT: This looks like it might be the problem. Bobboau?

Code: [Select]

                      1299: //reads a binary file containing a 3d model
2.6           bobboau   1300: int read_model_file(polymodel * pm, char *filename, int n_subsystems, model_subsystem *subsystems, int ferror)

                        1304:        int id, len, next_chunk;
                        1305:        int i,j;

                        1311:        fp = cfopen(filename,"rb");
2.15         |bobboau   1312:        if (!fp){
             |          1313:                if(ferror == 1)Error( LOCATION, "Can't open file <%s>",filename);

                        1317:        // code to get a filename to write out subsystem information for each model that
                        1318:        // is read.  This info is essentially debug stuff that is used to help get models

goober beat me to it

lol...

Might be something Bobboau was working on in debug and never removed. This "rb" whatever was added in the most recent code update, and if DatDB is using Bobboau's recent build, this might be the problem.

phreak · **Reply #4 on:** January 23, 2003, 06:16:50 pm

"rb" is needed to read the model file.

from the looks of it, you may have spelt the model file wrong in the table

StratComm · **Reply #5 on:** January 23, 2003, 06:31:54 pm

That could easily be the problem. Both the ships that you're having the problem with KT have been through several different versions with several different filenames. I'd double check those refrences just to be sure. I still have all the pofs in my models directory together, and I haven't tried them in the FSOpen versions, so I don't know whether it's the models or the code. I should also note, for the record, that both the Raynor and the Archangel are extremely high poly with a lot of UV maps. They were also both converted using PCS version 1.1.01 and thus have some faces that are triangulated but still dissapear as if they were nonplaner.

We are Tarded'

Yes we are.

Bobboau · **Reply #7 on:** January 23, 2003, 09:07:07 pm

rb == read binary

the thing I added was a flag to not show an error if it couldn't find the file, this was to help get past the warp model giveing an error mesage when not found

Goober5000 · **Reply #8 on:** January 23, 2003, 09:09:41 pm

Um...

Okay, well two things. First, fix the error message, and second, fix the warp thing so that you don't need warp.pof.

Ok sorry, I missed the part where I am told what I can do to fix the problem So I can go back to Fredding

phreak · **Reply #10 on:** January 24, 2003, 03:15:09 pm

he was talking to bob

Knight Templar · **Reply #11 on:** January 24, 2003, 03:17:50 pm

Yea I know.. So what do I do? Is someone fixing whatever problem it is?

*Note: I'm not nagging, I just want to know

StratComm · **Reply #12 on:** January 24, 2003, 04:19:11 pm

KT, you've had problems with those two ships in the past too, haven't you? They both work perfectly well for me in Fred2_open and Fred2DTP and show up in-game fine. On the flipside, I've run into an error on the latest official FS2_open build (don't know how far back it goes) but it won't open the mission simulator. Whenever I try, it crashes. This isn't helpful for model testing purposes, as making a dedicated campaign file isn't really feasable.

Knight Templar · **Reply #13 on:** January 24, 2003, 04:32:05 pm

Yes I've had trouble with them, but that was because My version of modelview was 2 years old. Those are the only ships that don't work in Fred, and they don't work in Fred2 or the Latest Public Fred2_Open

So what's the word on this?

Goober5000 · **Reply #16 on:** January 29, 2003, 07:20:49 pm

ask Bobboau

Knight Templar · **Reply #17 on:** January 29, 2003, 07:24:51 pm

well , what's the word bob?

Anaz · **Reply #18 on:** January 29, 2003, 08:30:21 pm

KT, the ships work fine for me in-game, do you want me to e-mail you my copies of them? As you may know, half of the shield *.anis don't work for me...

Knight Templar · **Reply #19 on:** January 29, 2003, 08:35:21 pm

The shield ani's don't work for me either, but they all work for you ingame? the Raynor and Arch?

well go for it then.
