Fix for periscope animations and graphics?

[Ducimus]

[quoet]Just a thought....Would it it be possible to copy and use the old Conningtower DAT that Ducimus suggests and then use OakGroove's new high-res interior mod to get the labels back on the radar and sonar displays?[/quote]

Nope. Labels are imbedded into the dat file, theres no way to extract or import into SH4 dats right now that im aware of.

It would be more wonderfull if someone could fix the SH-IV v. 1.3 dat file to make them raise and lower. I bet its a dof setting or something that they forgot.

Sources tell me its not possible.

ok i will reinstall it but where do i go to find the periscope dat files i dont know where there located

elaniaba has already said this bug came about because they had to re-import the interior models when they updated the radar and sonar stations, so it's likely the fix has to come from the devs' s end.

I just have to say, i didnt' fix jack schitt. Anybody can reinstall SH4, and grab the CT dat files.

I also have to say, im really surpised Anvart got this working. I was told that the periscope animations were not in the dat file, so i thought the issue an impossiblity. (how can you fix what your told is not there?) But apparently things were there, although i don't think anyones really going to miss the periscope handle animation.

Look.. I don't want to sound like a party pooper.. but if your going to call this a fix then your wrong, This fix breaks other stuff ingame so its not a fix but a work-a-round mod at best. "Sorry but I'll pass.

[Jmack]

breaks other stuff in game ???

working just fine to me

Missing lables, lights in the wrong place, changed 1.3 3d layout an so on, like i said a work-a-round not a fix.
