Default Lot's Wife

Didnt they blast that formation down for a radar station late in the war? Or maybe after the war? I may have my rocks mixed up....

Never Mind.......

Perhaps its possible to make a new "Ship" formed as Sofu Gan. Then place it on the spot as a ship on anchor with a ton of hitpoints......

At least untill the Dev's gets it right

Default SofuGan : a pillar of salt

Hello,
I installed this MOD does not seem to work well for me. When I arrive in the area, I locate the rock SofuGan very well but it has no texture: it is white as a pillar of salt. I hope it will not melt!

I'm with SH4 1.5 + TMO 1.7. Also, I tried without TMO, but the result is not better.

In advance thank you for advice.

Gibus

If the model is showing and it sounds like it is - is the sofugan.dds texture installed in Data\Textures\TNormal\tex\?

Sounds like it is something simple like the texture isn't activated but that is strange. Maybe the edit to the file has a misplaced semi colon - something simple like that.

You'll get it.

Happy Hunting!

Hello Art,

My poor familiarity of the language Anglo-Saxon does not allow me to understand the full meaning of your sentence. I am very sorry.
Can you repeat it otherwise?

To enlighten you:
- sofugan.dds file is installed in: Data\Textures\TNormal\tex\
- When I edit this file with XnWiew (for example), I see as the normal texture in file Sofu_Gan_model_for_SH4.pdf

What can happen? Thank you for your help.

In Campaign_LOC.mis
find this section. Maybe the type is wrong? Try Type=0 maybe?

Paste in your section.
