Finally Found Whát Is Wrong With Marketgardennijmegen Mission!


Recommended Posts

Finally, I found out what is wrong with the MarketGardenNijmegen mission.

 

Well, I think I do...  :shaunhb:

 

On the base in Eindhoven (where we never ever get to land somehow, but that's a different issue) I had put some static aircraft, to dress up the base a bit... eye candy.Two Tiger Moths! 

 

In mission code: Static vehicles.planes.Plane$U_2TM

 

And the Tiger Moth is  in UP3, it is not in HSFX.

 

 

The real issue is, you can't really tell when loading the mission.

 

You cán tell, if you use the console, and kinda know what you are looking for, in this case:

past the 'Load Static objects' line, something like:

WARNING: ****( Unexpected txr reload (tfMipmap): '3do/plane/U-2TM/summer/V.tga'

 

 

Found it was also used in Battle of Britain\HardestDay.mis

(And, as I recall, that one also had some issues with aircraft being visible or not)

 

 

In my set - which I will upload all new in due time - this issue has now been fixed.

 

If you want a quick fix, just open the mission files in notepad, look for $U_2TM and delete the line.

(You could also replace it with $U_2VS, that's a biplane as well...)

 

Now, does anybody know by heart any other missions that have had the 'can't see that plane there!'

 

 

 

Some that I know of:

- Blenheim night mission (could also be due to the DF server at that time)

- DF Pearl Harbour

- ?

 

(Apart from actively looking for this issue, I might have to change my 'Scorelog' utility so it will look out for warnings, and report them...)

 

Oh well!
