Slightly off the topic:
I'm beginning to think this game is possessed. Tater and I have been trying to implement an invisible ship to use as a camera target for photographic missions. The one that he did (an invisible sampan) is invisible in my periscope but visible everywhere else. The one that I did (a hybrid sampan/junk) is invisible (all views) and lockable on my machine but is not lockable on taters machine and causes a CTD if you add anything to the mission it's in. I could almost understand it if it was a camera thing, but I think it's a lot more than that. What works fine on my machine shouldn't just not exist on tater's (or cause a CTD for that matter) and vice versa. There are so many variables involved (type of video card, drivers being used, video settings, other mods in use, operating system, processor capabilities) that it may be paractically impossible for us to determine the root cause (which gives me that much more incentive to keep
until the
goes off).
