Those are the names of files and folders that come to my mind thinking hastily, I am sure that there are many more, and in this case, you can take Jeff-Groves's words very seriously, since he is one of the most highly qualified modders here, among many others....  |
Yes, thank you mate, I know all that, there are many files to change and I know how. Encountering a CTD, I now go step by step. So I kept the original (vanilla) .dat file of the type IXD2 submarine, and made ONLY ONE change : a new 3D model. This only modification makes the game crash...
(all other files are vanilla files).
So, I open the complexe 3D model with a 3D editor and removed meshes in order to have a model of around 14000 triangles (Wise's IXD2 3D model is around 19000 and there isn't any CTD when loading a mission). There is still a CTD. I will try a last thing : importing Wise's model directly into the vanilla .dat file to see if it works...
