Axem said he deleted something from the FTP maybe there is enough space now, but I can't host it for long.

Well what taylor is saying is that the same values should work whether the shockwave is 2D or 3D, which sounds like a good idea to me (at least on the surface of it.)

Otherwise if you want to take advantage of the new modular table format you can put the values like this... (I'm about 90-95% done with -shp.tbm, just need to get it debugged)

Code: [Select]
$Name: GTF Ulysses
$Shockwave Speed: ???
$Shockwave Model: ???


Which should work with any mod that uses the Ulysses. The only problem is that it'll autocreate the ship if it isn't found, so for something like Inferno it'd fill things up with bogus ship entries.

I'll try to think up a simple way around that before I get the final code done, probably just a +noautocreate below the $Name field.

Well, I did deleted [classified thing], and that was around 40MB... delete that may be out of date thing too if you want too (another 40MB there). I have pretty much everything for [different classified thing], so I don't need it up now.

If that doesn't work... What about freespaceserver then?

The freespace server is only for internal download stuff, as far as I reacall what MP wrote.

Well, I'll upload asap, but on frame is missing. :mad:

I didn't notice it until I tried to add it as another shockwave in-game.
Hmm now this is a slight problem... Now I have to find out the right recoolor batch....

I guess it's stupid to avoid renaming the batches. Maybe it's batch 48 or batch 34 or.... :mad:

It was about time to clean my batch list up anyway. :lol:

Simple, really. In the zip, anything ending with .pof goes into your Freespace\Data\Models directory, while all the .eff and .dds files goes into Freespace\Data\Maps directory.

And then you're ready to go - if it doesn't work, try extracting to data\effects\ directory instead :)

The ships.tbl also need to go in your data\tables folder too.

DO these effects only occure when capitalships exploit? A Deimos corvette blew up and there was no effect.

Yes, they do. Which FS_open build do you use?

And which version of the effect?

Does the game use the old effect, or no effect at all?

Iam using the newest one version 828. The old effects are used. I am using high end. ( AMD3700,1024 mb, 7800GTX). I will try to install them again.

Sounds fine to me...

Even if the maps or the table cause problems of any kind, the model shouldn't. It very simple and nothing special. If the model is in the right directory, the old effects shouldn't be used anymore.

I think it may be in a wrong directory.

You'll need a plugin.

I deleted the high end maps in my directory and tried it with the super high end and it worked as far I know because the explosions were beautiful, almost starlancer like. The problem is I extracted the files directly to the maps. The last time I extracted them first to the harddisk and then with copy and paste. Thanks for your work and help.
