So that we could see what we needed to do to make changes to it all. No mission peramiters nothing just a sub and a storm. That is what I use to test the lightning and Jaketoox's sea foam. Other wise I think the single missions fallow what they were programed to fallow.

BTW guys I am out of here just got the new stuff to test from everyone. I will be back much lator on or tomarrow seeing there is Kriller2's stuff and Kapitan_zur_see's sub's bubble work and more. Catch you all lator on!

Weird Graphic Using Row
 
I'm getting a weird graphics effect when I torpedo a ship and the ship begins burning. The fire looks like orange squares. Here's a couple of screenies to show what I mean.

I'm wondering if this has something to do with the order in which I have the Row files installed using the JSGME? Below is a screenie of my JSGME folder.

Hiya,
1st off i see a discrepency but if it affects your problem i don't know

Anyways, Install the TM parts as follows ......

1st gfx pak
2nd TM 1-6
3rdly the 1.63 patch

May not sort it but worth a try

Next step if that does nowt is either disable mods 1 at a time until you find the cause or on the flip side disable all but TM and ROW and then add them back untill you find the cause

Swings n roundabouts but it aint too hard with the great tool that's JSGME, Beats having to go into all folders and find the prob lol

I have just done a 2 drive dualboot so gotta re-install sh4 etc

If you still have the prob i'll DL n load same mods as you and try to work it out with you

Happy Torping

Ciao

Problem Fixed
 
Thanks, Leo. I've been able to fix the problem. Setting my graphics card back to default settings did not help any. Using the second fix which involved replacing the newfire_add.dds file, only in my case the file was not in data/textures/tnormal/tex folder so I simply copied and pasted a new file into the folder. Thanks alot, I truly appreciate your help. :up:

Hey leo. Did ROW change the behavior of the aircraft. Because now when ever i get near pearl there is an aircraft in the air 24/7. And well there was no night fighters in the pacific until much later in the war. Oh and it's a fighter eather the lightning, or wildcat. not that it's a real problem except i keep comming out of TC and takes forever to get back

Quote:

The US Navy and Air Force did not have the same motivation to develop and deploy night fighters in the Pacific. Carrier based aircraft were less suited to night operations, or more specifically night deck landings. Japanese bombing -- operations were generally short range tactical based, and conducted during daylight hours. The Japanese only conducted some nighttime nuisance bombing of the Pacific Islands using floatplanes and obsolete aircraft. Even when the American night bombing campaign commenced over Japan, the Japanese military psyche shunned away from defence strategies. Night interception strategies were therefore slow in coming.

Nope ROW dosn't touch a single thing in the campaign layers

ROW only deal's with textures, reflection's and effect's. Tater's and Duciums mod's deal with campaign layers. The only mod I ever made that touched them was the Airbase navmap mod and all that did was make them visable where as they were not seen before airbases that is.

Left over from when everyone asked the Dev's to increase harbor trafic for the game and was added in patch 1.2 originaly. There are some mod's that did away with or really reduced the total traffic for the Allied harbor area's. Normaly the game will not deploy a plane from an allied base unless you are another allied ship see's an enemy within the Airbase and Airplane's range or from a Carrier.

Only the Jap Carrier's and Airbases are set up for patrol's in the game for some reason or another. I actualy wish the Allied bases and Carrier's would send out recon's on their own.

Do you use Trigger Maru ?
Deepbluewolf (member of ubi forum that past away after accident) is on eternal patrol above Pearl.

Do you get that bending at the bottom of the horizon allways? - I think it appears when there is fog, it's like the SH4 engine is taking the whole horizon and replaces it above the horizontline.. :hmm: If we can get rid of that bug we are home free it allso appears in old ROW, maybe patch 1.4 will correct it?
