LwAmi causing invisible subs/weapons?

[mrlackey]

I am having a problem with lwami. When I activate lwami with the JSGME mod enabler most subs become invisible such as in the Red_Storm_Rising Campaign, Holddown Exercise Mission when i forced the submarine to surface the only thing you could see was the wake trail. The non controlable subs are invisible both in 3d viewing and looking off a ship at a surfaced sub, the only thing you can see is the wake or cavitation trail. Some torpedos and missiles are the same way invisible except the trail. When I deactivate the Lwami mod all subs/weapons are visible again. Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!!

You probably haven't run the two .bat files that come with the LWAMI package. They are in the Dangerous Waters/Mods/LwAmi_mod/Graphics folder. Run the zUSNIinstaller and the zGraphicsInstaller files. Oh, and make sure LWAMI is disabled in JSGME before you do this.

If you used the one-click installer for LwAmi 3.10 there shouldn't be any .bat you have to execute after install. Everything is done by the installer. What operating system do you use? And where did you install LwAmi?

using win XP SP3... .bat files not found/not present Used the installer program. ->Splash screens not working, when program starts it shows blank black screen for about a minute then the original splash screen then the startup video. --->Some how i got lwami running but if i also enable the LWAMI_MOD_APAD subs, torpedos, and missiles disappear again. Also now having a problem with the FFG towed array showing new contacts crashing the program. Have been playing the red storm rising missions->do i need to disable lwami for these missions? -----> Also where should i look for multiplayer games? Have hyperlobby client program but don't ever see any other gamers there. Thanks again for all the help!!!

Do not enable the standard database and the APAD database at the same time.

I'm not sure, but the latest versions of lwami change a lot of things in the database. Missions such as the Red Storm Rising campaign were designed for DW 1.04. It is possibile that the objects in the mission cannot reference correctly the corresponding objects in the database. Someone should re-edit those missions to make them compatibile with the new version of lwami.

[Molon Labe]

None of the DB objects from 1.04 are moved or deleted. That is definitely not the issue.

My guess is that he is using Win7 and has installed DW in the default directory. The Windows UAC might mess with installer and thus prevent a successful install. But we won't know more till he answers my initial question.
