Black Crew fix

John W. Hamm · 12-29-07, 06:43 AM

Has anyone found a fix for the crew turning black yet ? I read this string and it proved to not help but this was the only one I found http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ght=Black+Crew

What version of ROW are you using as I remember this prob. being related to that.

Hmmm I've been getting that as well. Didn;t associate it with any particular mod, but I can't say that for sure.

I'm also seeing something else strange lately related to crew graphics. None of my bridge crew have eyes... just empty sockets. 100% reproducable, all the time. Freaky looking. I'm pretty sure this is related to a mod, just haven't figured out which one yet.

Well I know that the Black crew happens even in the Vanila version I, from what I have found and read so far, it appears it s graphics card or chipset issue, the eyes though I have had happen to me before as well but obly a couple of times, and that happened while I was doing either one of two things, Using TC or alt tabbing, but save exiting and entering fixes both, the eye thing I have not seen in a while. BTW I don't use ROW becuase it causes distant land to act odd and my water surrounding my ship turns to jello. what are you doing to reproduce the eye issue ?

The mods I use
01 RFB 1.4 for stock RC1
RSRDC P2 RFB v240
John Hamms uniform mod V1.0

my pc specs:
Q6600 Quad core Proccesor
3069 MB Ram (I can't remember what type)
Duel GeForce 8800GTS
500 GB hard drive
Windows XP HE SP2

I certainly hope its not my Graphics cards because SH4 will go before they do.

Does seem to point to a graphics card issue, but nothing definitive. Hope you can sort this one out.

Nothing special actually. I just start the game go up to the bridge and... no eyes! Every time, all the time.

I'm wondering if I'm not missing a texture or something.

I used to have missing eyes occasionally in patches 1.2 and 1.3. I have not seen this problem since 1.4.

Since I recently posted this, I got the missing eyes last night. I played for a while longer switching views and returned to the control room where the crewman had the missing eyes and they were back. No predictable way to make them come and go. So, it looks like 1.4 still does this but from my observation, not as often as earlier patches. I'm playing un-modded game.
