Cirrus cloud mod with Black Sea terrain

[serverandenforcer 33]

Quick question, has anybody else had problems with getting Lex's cirrus cloud mod to work in the Black Sea terrain? I have it working in every terrain that I have, but it doesn't seem to work in the Black Sea. I'm a bit confused on what the problem might be.

[Guest pfunkmusik]

Hunh. I dunno why. I never tried it. Nothing special about how it was made, other than it incorporated CA_Stary's Forest and Farms Mod.

Yough server, can you poast the section of your Terrain_DATA.ini file that has the Cirrus target stuff?

 

same thing from the Terrain_TYPES.ini ....the stuff that sets up the targets.

[serverandenforcer 33]

Ok Lexx, here ya go. I placed them in a .rar file because it would've made the message too long if I just posted all the information here.

 

 

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

Just poast the sections dealing with the cirrus stuff.

 

Very small text block. That way everybody gets a look.

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

Interesting. TYPES are the same as mine. Okay.

 

TARGETS...mmm

 

Target 155 should have cirrus as [015] not [013].

 

Target 156 is all messed up with out of place numbers. Should the [nnn] numbers be consecutive integers? I always assumed this.

 

Some of the other cirrus'ed target areas seem to be numbered right, but I just briefly skipped over a few looking for more out of sequence numbering.

 

You have alot of cirrus targets here. Try just one at an airbase (enemy if friendly does not work)... and not carrier station, and see if you can get THAT one airbase cirrus to work alone. I never seen that before...carrier station. I have only put cirrus at airbases, since the terrain I use is still very pre-Alpha.

I had a lot of cirrus targets because I couldn't get one to work, and I try going to other target areas to see if something would pop up, but didn't get any results. So out of frustration, I tried a send the cirrus targets all over the place to see if I can get at least one positive result.

Delete all cirrus entries in your file -- word search to make sure they are all gone.

 

Pick one (1) target, an airbase, then cirrus it up, and poast the complete text for that one target area here.

 

Just that one target. And we'll look at it. Then we move from there if needed.

OK, I reset the target.ini file and picked one target area for the cirrus target. Still not getting the cirrus clouds to show...

Two things to try...

 

Cirrus up an airbase.

 

If that don't work, try an ENEMY airbase.

[serverandenforcer 33]

Tried both, didn't work.

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

uh, Panic time.

 

Your cirrus are always at the target area bottoms. Try replacing the first target object with the CirrusTarget.

 

Target[001].Type=HQBuilding1 CHANGE TO CirrusTarget

Sorry bro, but still nothing happening here. Like I said, it works for all the other terrains except for this one for some odd reason. So I think it has to do with something in the terrain it self. I was just only wondering if anybody else experienced this problem with your mod in the Black Sea terrain, and if not then I guess I just happen to be the lucky guy to have it happening to him.

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

This could be interesting: Are the cirrus target buildings appearing?

 

I'm using ModelName=GeneratorBuilding1.lod but then I don't use the gen buildings otherwise.

Yes they are.

[Lexx_Luthor 57]

well dam, this is bizzaro.

 

I'll have to think about this some more.
