It's not corrupted here (downloaded on 12/02/12, though).
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills

I can confirm that there are no shader errors with Griff_Shipset_Replace_v1.0 as well.

You also wouldn't expect a missing binding of alertlevel to affect gameplay. It can only affect the colour change (red lights; I guess) of Griff ships when they are under attack.

I can also confirm a working download of Griff_Shipset_Resources_v1.2.22, downloaded February 16th.

EV snipped too much, I fear. I was asking about one particular texture file.

Quite possibly... just to be clear, there were no corrupted files in the Griff's Shipset Resources OXP.

15:07:40.234 [files.notFound]: ----- WARNING: Could not find texture file "griff_cobra_mk3_scuffed_mainhull_diffuse_spec.png".
I have just downloaded it, unzipped it and viewed that 1024x1024 pixel file. It's fine.
Flying a Cobra Mk I Cobbie 3 with nothing but Explorers Club.OXP and a beam laser 4 proper lasers for company :D

this looks a lot like a typo or bug in the shipdata.plist that's pointing the scuffed cobraIII to a texture that doesn't exist, i'll have a dig through the oxp

edit: hmm, didn't find anything obvious - i've uploaded just that problem texture here again if it helps Wildeblood, don't blame you for not wanting to re-download all that data just for 1 file :D

A quick question for anyone who plays oolite with my recent dodo station remake - do you think it would look better without the numbers on every side? - i found one in game for the first time the other day and thought all the numbers looked a bit weird! they were the last thing to go into the oxp before hurredly uploading it and i'm thinking now maybe it would look better without them
I have to update the oxp soon as dertien spotted a hole in the model (a flipped polygon normal i think) and i forgot to draw in one of the rows of 'window lights' near the docking bay and it would be a good chance to do something about the numbers

Yes! In fact, I'd remove the numbers from the Dodo and the Coriolis.
Some nice decals would be preferable to numbers, I reckon.

I noticed one thing about Griff's Viper Interceptor shipdata.plist. The engines & gun subentity has:

Code: Select all

forward_weapon_type = "WEAPON_BEAM_LASER";
If this has been addressed please excuse.

You are referring to the fact that the original Viper Interceptor has a military laser? I just want to clarify your point.

That is correct. I shied away from stating such. I suppose there is a good reason, huh?

oo, nice catch! I've just been careless copying the stats over from the original ships - happily it looks like the mistake is just in the 'addition' version of the oxp, i'll fix the bug and re-upload this evening (haven't got access to ftp at the moment)

I've got the replacement version and it's in there, too. I even remember that I noticed it when working on the shipdata. But I first thought it was perhaps a deliberate change and then forgot to report it.
