I'm on A new nVidia card and see it too. I thought it was just their hair being modeled badly and clipping their head. It's anoying but I don't really notice it.

Im not mad after all . hahahahahahahahahaha

I do exactly the same.
When I start a new carrer, I take note of the names of the crew that are going to be in visible "spots" (bridge, control room, hydrophon, radar) and I "select" the crew with a "normal" head.
Then I gave these men priority when I assign a new medal-promotion-qualification, till they do not need to rest anymore, and they can stay at their stations without becoming fatigued.
I make sure, also, to choose different men, just for eyecandy, so when I'm in the conning tower I can see a blond guy, a brown hair one, one with the cap.....so they just don't look all clones :D .
By the way: as the problem seems to occur only for few crewman, and not all of them, it can't be, in my opinion, a graphic problem related to a particular graphic card.....

I have that triangles too! :down:

The Pascal's mod fix it?

Rubini.

No, i cant, the problem is inside de 3D model: head04

I have an nVIDIA 6600 GT and I also see the polygons through the hair.

Thanks Pascal for the reply.

To don't miss the opportunity: thanks for your great mods! :up:

Rubini.

Would removing the head04 model from the game work? I've thought about trying that but hadn't gotten around to giving it a test.

Are random selections for the crew's heads done at the beginning of each patrol, each time they go on watch or each time a career starts?

Another option might be to delete the head04 model and copy then rename one of the other models to head04.

What a bunch of nitpickers, next thing you'll be checking for dirt under their fingernails. :lol:

And probably their toenails also. :rotfl:

Dirty nails?! What next toe jam and underarm smells?

Arrrgggghhh hang em from the yard-arm or walk the plank...Argh!

:arrgh!:

I think i got rid of the triangles by substituting another seaman . I deleted the folder head04 and then i copyed the head03 folder and called that head04 . Then i renamed the the 2 tga files and 1 dat file the same as what they were originally in head04. Does that make sense.

glenno how is the game running then with these file changes?

:arrgh!:

I tried that gleano but SH3 kept crashing on me while loading a mission. I only tried to load the gunnery academy mission.

Does it load a career successfully with the change?

Another option would be to edit the crew career files to replace crew with head04 with another head.

You have to make the changes while in port .
