Default 'Ghost' locks

I'm using BBW's AOTD-AA-Ship-Schleuse-Bugfix but the buildings on and around the two locks are white/grey. I think I'm missing a texture file, but which one and how can I get a copy of the correct file to replace it?

The mod is enabled via JSGME and has no reported conflicts (nothing has overwritten any of the files).

Images will follow once imageshack accepts my screen shots!

Download the mod again but from a different source to be doubly sure it isn't a faulty download.

I've tried BBW's mod twice now, plus the individual lock mods just to be sure and I've still got the same problem.

You might try what I did, since I'm not a very trusting soul (myself least of all): I took the 'fix' to mean just that, and installed the original 'Locks' mods and then the fix. Never had a problem.

I'd have thought the AOTD mod incorporated the other two :hmm:

I'm u/l my texture folder for you....replace yours with it and see if that sorts matters out.

Give this a go mate, it's gotta be worth a try:

Jim,

Thank you, but no joy. I guess something else is screwing the locks.

Sorry to hear that mate.....how about posting a list of the mods your using and maybe we can find precisely where the conflict is.

Clean install of SH3 v1.4b, GWX 2.0 then GWX 2.1 followed by JSGME install of AOTD-AA-Ship-Schleuse-Bugfix (no version number).
Can someone please upload a clean copy for me - I've tried 2 separate downloads and neither have worked.

Default You'll never believe where the problem was

Now I really do need an expert - the problem seems to lie somewhere in the savegame files!
I completed a clean install with files from jimbuna's site (thanks, jim), loaded up and had the correct textures on the houses.
I put my old 'SH3' folder back into My Documents, loaded up and was back to ghost houses.
Deleted the SH3 folder from My Documents and... textures back on the houses.

I'm going to put the old files back into the SH3 folder and try and find out which one of them was causing the problem.
