Any help appreciated!!!
I made a 'deck gun' from the Iowa turret. I put the cam in the gun file like I did with the Maya and Fuso, worked for the others, didn't work for the Iowa. Put the cam in the sub/ship file and was there but under the gun. And if I use it then go back to the bridge the gun fires but not in the right direction. It fires to the left. Did the Remap IDs and all and if I don't use the camera it works OK. Takes forever to respond when changing targets but it works. (EDIT: the gun does have an X rotation, could the camera be messing that up?)
BUT the major problem: I can NOT get any gun to load onto the ship. The M02 and M03 are empty. Redid the upc using the Sboat in case I missed an M02, but didn't have any problem on the Maya or Fuso. I tried changing to M03 and M04 no luck. I even changed the M03 to an S11 (5 inch turret, ten on the ship working) and changed the eqp file to 5 inch to match the guns on the ship and that won't go in at the M03 location. I even tried a 'regular' deck gun at M01 (3/50 I think) but still nothing at M02 or M03. (And they are set to visible.)
And ideas what I did wrong? Anything no matter how outrageous, I'll try it. If any other info will help, let me know.
My thoughts right now are possibly a mistake in the conversion to sub (typo, name conflict, etc) but I can't seem to find a problem. I may just start over from the beginning unless someone has an idea.
