Rooster89 Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Small problem here guys, On the last few skins I've made (all for Albatros D.IIs), when I make them the deafault skin and fly in my campaign my flightmembers planes are invisible. Theyre just guys sitting in a seat with bracing wires where the wings should be and a prop out front. I think Widowmaker was seeing something similar when taking screenshots awhile back. Anyone else ever encounter this with thier skins? I hope its just a small mistake that Im making somewhere and I dont have to reset OFF. -Rooster Quote
Rooster89 Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 Hmm...seems to only happen with the Albatros D.II. All my skins for other planes show up fine. Any one have any idea what might be causing this? -Rooster Quote
Bullethead Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Hmmm...... I haven't had this problem myself so I'm afraid I can't help you. But if I was to speculate, it might be some sort of file name issue. Quote
Rooster89 Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the advice Bullethead, I checked and made sure I was naming the files right and I dont think thats the problem. My campign has me in Alby D.III earlys now and its the same thing. Guess I'll just wait until my current campaign (Its a good one so far) is over and try a re-install and see if that works out the issue. -Rooster Edited September 25, 2009 by Rooster89 Quote
Rooster89 Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 Just checked something else.....this makes it a little more odd.....my skins show up absolutely fine in Quick Combat mode. No invisible planes anywhere. So now I have no clue what might be going on. -Rooster Quote
UK_Widowmaker Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Bump...Did you ever get it sorted Rooster? Quote
Rooster89 Posted September 30, 2009 Author Posted September 30, 2009 Nope. Not yet Widowmaker. Haven't had much time the past few days for OFF, but I'm hoping I can figure something out tonight. If all else fails a re-install should clear it up. -Rooster Quote
Rooster89 Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Alright, well a re-install didnt do it either. It must be something I'm messing up when making my skins, but I dont know what. Any ideas? -Rooster Quote
Rooster89 Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Ah ha! Got it! (I know everyone was reading this thread on edge of thier seat ). I had been accidentally saving my skins as the wrong type of DXT file. It should be saved as a DXT1 but somehow my selection changed to DXT3. Lost my best pilot for that one. Had 15hrs and 16conf kills. Oh well. -Rooster Quote
UK_Widowmaker Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Excellent news Rooster!...Not just because you solved the problem..but have pointed the way to 'Stealth Technology!" My all new 'Stealth Pfaltz' ist on ze drawing board as we speak!! Quote
