Ahhh.

Thanks Griff. Those results thoroughly confused me.

I had no idea that different regions could be interpreted differently.

Thanks for posting that. My laptop's abandoned gfx chipset hasn't seen an update since I bought it and it's on the list. Yee-Haw!

FWIW just check if the shaders are on (and set to FULL) under Game Options. (Press 2 when a commander is loaded.)

i think the normal map problem is my fault, i need to invert the tones in some sections of the original texture before sending it through the photoshop plugin -basically on some faces the 'bumps' are 'dips' and the 'dips' are 'bumps' - at least i think that's what the problem is. Perhaps I'm going ...

Yes it's harder. 'cause someone took the invisible back doors out of the convenience stores.

Second is for a Hover Car. BTW my first pic was an ad for Gargle Blasters :P <edit> ...

Thanks, I appreciate that. :) Does the link in the code box not work for you? The filename and URL are the same except for the added version number -- which I should have used in the first place. If you'd prefer I can email it or IM it. It's at 9.1 MB now. [I wish MS Live would rethink their URLs :/...

Wow.

I have several metal plating textures that I made for the Dredger Alt Texture set. You are welcome to them.

Doh!

Thanks for catching that.

Now fixed. Top post modified.

STUPID QUESTION ALERT:

Is -player role already defined for every ship a player can fly/buy?

Eric,

That's much easier.

Thanks.

If you change the .dat it changes the NPC's too, right? I was suggesting a simple (at least for the end user ) way to have player textures be distinct from the NPC's.

NPC=Non-Player Character/Ship

Thanks.

Edited the top post to reflect.

Wow. Excellent instructions.

But, yeah, that's what I was hoping to be simplified. Also, in cases where a ship is branded: i.e. military or corporate; the player's ship would not have to carry logos or whatnot.

Again, just a suggestion.

And thanks for detailing the process.

Thanks.

Fixed the link. It now goes to the download page. MS Live must change the direct link address daily.

Also anyone feel free to upload it somewhere more convenient. I just didn't want to sign up for more accounts.
