Blocky oil slicks

[JG11Bear]

Hello all,

Does anyone else get blocky oil slicks from ships that have been sunk? By blocky I mean box like dark shapes that is meant to be oil.

Thanks

Bear

That's probably blocky fire's first cousin. Do a search for "fire block" or thereabouts and you'll find the fix.

In lue of that ... I heard that some graphics in TM XXX will overwrite the textures needed in ROW for the fire and oil, if TM is installed last. To overcome this possibility, I saved the ROW texture updates and installed them over top of the mods, including TM XXX and I have no issues.

My mod installation (from memory) goes like this:

All the ROW stuff (execpt textures. I'm using Hi-res foam too.)
TM xxx
the latest campaign layers
green button mod (sorry I didn't like the pink)
ROW textures

Thanks for the link donut, I knew about the fire issue but did not realize the oil slick issue until last night.

I think Snuffy meant load TM XXX first and then your ROW mods.

Nope I meant what I said.

I'm not home now so I can't screenshot my JSME mods screen ... I'll supply one when I get home.
