I finaly have a saved game in the campaign with a storm

After reading for like 1hr through this topic, I'm utterly amazed about what you guy's can do.

Superb job! :up:


PS_ Going to have to weld a lightning rod right next to my diving platform. :yep:

leovampire 08-20-07 01:31 PM

didn't you know that is what those wire poles are for on the sub
 
just have to make sure your below deck when it hit's LOL! Unless you want a high and teight for a hair due

What, and miss the show you guy's are making... Hell NO!

Got a new recruit aboard who's called shorty... going to transfer him to the watch crew.. :smug: And if it's very bad weather I'll raise my Ops.scope and put him up there, just to be safe.

okay Captain Cox and Kapitan_zur_see
 
we need to crack this problem with the effects only working in the single mission and not in the campaign layers.

I have tryed using fresh files from when the game got it's last patch and first running the game in campaign mode. Then makeing all the changes to them that I did to get the lightning working in the first place and then trying it in the campaign and still now go.

So now what do we do guys? All the testers so far say they can only see it in the test mission and not the campaign layers. What is it we do not know and what is it we can't seem to tweek to crack that problem?

All the tga or DDS textures in the world are not going to make a bit of diff if we can't crack that one silly problem that is probably stairing at us laughing it's you know what off!

CaptainCox 08-21-07 01:17 AM

Yea I know this is really getting sort a silly. Early on I asked one of the Dev's about the lightning in general, but never got an answer :(

Have anyone found what/where the code is for the weather stuff in career? That's probably again a long shot.

I still think that you should release your latest version of LBO (when you are 100% that is) and we can work on this on the side.

Personally I have little time these days as Frankfurt Motor Show is coming up in 2 weeks and we are super busy at work at the mo...late evenings etc. I will probably have some time during the weekend etc but... :(

EDIT: Just realized you have done it, released LBO that is :)

leovampire 08-21-07 07:06 PM

when ever you can help or get to it is fine C.C.
 
I havn't given up and still cracking on this one day after day until I find all the the repairs to get it working in ever area of the game. It is something silly I know it is just takes time to find it.

kapitan_zur_see 08-21-07 07:16 PM

keep up the good work guys! currently i have but very little free time so i can't really help you... I'm with you :up: hope this will be fixed sooner or later!

leovampire 08-21-07 07:35 PM

so stay with the current lighting work you made
 
kapitan_zur_see? Just wanted to know because there are slight ajustments to make new tga files to work correctly not the size factor just the lighting factor.

What do you mean? the little problem my tgas has? don't worry i'll fix that. Just that i had very few times on my own ;)

leovampire 08-23-07 03:28 PM

na na na never mind no worries. Just do what ever you
 
want to do or need to do and ignor me!

All I want is to get the campaign end of this working right now once that happens then I will pay attention to everything else.

Take your time and ignor me kapitan_zur_see

GT182 08-23-07 03:34 PM

I'm no modder, but I've got a stupid question to ask. Could this be a problem with the SDK and game engine where lightning was taken away by the Devs, and causing a problem getting it back in the Campaign?

leovampire 08-23-07 04:06 PM

not sure to be honest
 
but if it now works in one part of the game and not the other I am sure there is a way to get it working in both just have to find the trigger that is all.

kapitan_zur_see 08-31-07 11:53 AM

i wonder what's your progress so far leo... still not impletemented in campaign mode?
