Disco Freespace bug
on: October 07, 2004, 07:03:17 am
In the first nebular mission of the main FS 2 campaign, as soon as I get into the cockpit, all of the ships start to flash all kinds of colours, like a disco. If it helps, I could give a screenshot if I'm told where to upload it.

I have all features turned on (In easy setup), except for radar_reduce, and I'm using Windows 98.

That's so funny...could we make that bug a command-line feature? Awesome.

The only thing that comes to mind is texture-corruption...

Something very similair has happened to me once or twice. It was very strange.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Definately not the -env code then. That only appeared later.

Well, I wouldn't mind so much if it didn't flash. It hurt me... in the BRAIN!

My thoughts exactly. Wouldn't this be the coolest thing ever if we get it to work on command?
