We have returned to continue our purification of this galaxy. It is again your turn to be crushed beneath the great force that is the Antaran army. All your petty squabbling with the other beings in this galaxy is meaningless. The Antaran fleet will destroy you all, one by one. You may not surrender. You cannot win. Your only option is death.

First post of this thread

As for the CRC problem, sounds like a corrupt file problem. Could be somebody tried to download the file while redmenace was uploading it, or it didn't get compressed correctly.

Ok...

The last question (I hope)....

Which is the last "mv core" (I saw the one with the installer, then I saw mv coreb and mv corec)...where I can find the last one...

When I try to download fs2open installer, said, not found...

Thanks...

Erg, I've been having some problems with the Perseus model. Apparently, THRUSTER01 doesn't exist in the mediaVP, and EzeCglass isn't in mv_models.vp.

I tried to open it in Modelview, but it claimed that the ship had a texture longer than 30 characters. POFCS simply hung.

It also brings up an access violation on the line:
Code: [Select]
model->indexed_vertex_buffer = gr_make_buffer(&model_list, VERTEX_FLAG_POSITION | VERTEX_FLAG_NORMAL | VERTEX_FLAG_UV1);
Specifically, vertex_buffer[idx].buffer->Lock(0, 0, &v, D3DLOCK_DISCARD); in gr_d3d_make_buffer 0. I suspect it's because list->n_verts is 0 :p In fact, if I set the function to return -1 if list->n_verts is 0, it seems to work fine, until gr_d3d_destroy_buffer is called. (Except for the missing textures)

Using 3.6.5 release, I get a CTD. :wtf: I even tried deleting the IBX file, in case it was corrupted.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having similar problems? Does the modeller have any comments? (Apparently I missed crediting him in the readme)

Works fine for me.

Turned out the file got corrupted when I extracted it to view it.

ToDo: cruiser01x.pof needs to be put back in.

I have been looking into the issues with lightspeeds graphics and the vp as it stands. Here is a file list. I have noticed that there are PCX and dds versions of files such as shine maps. This is in addition to missing files.

Er, is there anything different from that file list and the one I'd get by calling up a directory listing of the files in mv_textures?

yes, that is including release 20. This is the one that I am assembling for the texture vp.

Why doesn't someone make a better shockwave?
The one in the VP is detailed, but the way it explodes if totaly...wierd.

A shockwave is spherical, and no matter from where you look, you will allways see the edges - thus it will allways look like a circle.

What's with those strange angles of the shockwave? Lookes totaly crappy when several of them blow simountaniously.

and I do think bluish is cooler...

The planar shockwave is commonly called the "Praxis" shockwave effect, and is a notorious pickup from Star Trek.  It has since been incorporated into just about any sci-fi film that involves a massive explosion, just because it "looks cool".  Actually the original FS shockwave was as good as I could have ever hoped to get in terms of realism, though of course it is not as flashy.
who needs a signature? ;)
