Appearing then exploding rocks in the distance (1.73)

I'm not even sure it's being worked on right at this moment.

You must rebuild the cache, not the application, in order to make the bug go away for a while. Start up the game with Shift pressed and you should be good for a little bit longer than just a couple of jumps.

if the problem is with cached meshes ..
either the original/reference meshes are being rescaled,
or new meshes are rescaled, not deleted, and then re-used,
or something else.

I can't see any meshes other than the originals in the cache.
is there an app or program to view/extract cache file contents ?
( on Windows )

OOCache.h line 17 .. " OOCacheManager-manged caches " ..
the cache is being 'manged'

Nope. I think the closest you’ll get is to change CACHE_PLIST_FORMAT to NSPropertyListXMLFormat_v1_0 at the top of OOCacheManager.m. (Note: this will increase memory usage.)

thanks Ahruman .. that's much better /00\

Is it possible to ..
specify a type/class of cache entry for generated wreckage, to allow removing wreckage cache entries when entering a new system ?
or could wreck object entries be removed by name .. splinterX boulderX etc ?

are cache objects permitted that do not yet exist on disk ?
