This sounds like you've fried your video card.&nbsp; I had an ATI 9800pro exhibit the same behaviour as your machine.&nbsp; I mucked with drivers, tried to make sure dx9 was really dx9c, etc.&nbsp; Came to the conclusion that it was on it's last legs.&nbsp; After ...

<t> Yes, I'd come to that conclusion as well. It's not stopping me from playing and enjoying the game, nor is it stopping me from making missions (I certainly have). But I thought it would be very cool to include cut scenes in mission...kind of a mini-story. I'm just not holding out any hope at this ...

1. Is there any documentation on the mission editor other than what is in the game manual? The manual doesn't seem to cover all that much.<br/>
<br/>
2. Does anyone have a list of the Params that are used in the events? I have this feeling ...

Uncle.

<t> I agree Dragonlead. I just haven't been able to put the parms together in a logical way to manipulate the scene correctly. Beginscene and endscene are pretty straightforward. The rest, well, if you discover anything let me know.<br/>
<br/>
It just hampers some of the things I'm trying to do ...

<t> November 17, 2006.&nbsp; Thanks for the suggestion onegoodman.&nbsp; That'd be a good suggestion if I were asking a question that was answered in the manual or in these forums and someone had "already been there, done that".&nbsp; I spent 3 days working through the undoc'ed events before I even ...

<t> November 10, 2006. Post #4. Days since question first asked: 19. When SS first came out, the dev was usually on answering questions in a timely manner. Different world I guess. Update the manual please to include a complete description of mission building options, specifically events. Thanks,<br ...

Yawn.  November 3, 2006.  Third pinging post.  Thought I'd just come in here every Friday until an answer is posted.  Almost like a trouble ticket system....yeah, right.

Hmm...at least a week from my post in the mod forum and coming up on a week from this post here. When can I expect an update to the manual or an errata sheet so that all of the mission building events are documented?

Thanks,

dh

Thanks Dragonlead, any help is appreciated.

<t> Already posted in the mod forum with no official reply. There are quite a few mission events that are not documented in the manual. It would be very helpful for mission builders to know how these events work and what the parameters are. Any chance we'll see and updated manual, or perhaps an ...

<t> In the mission editor, events like Camera, Begin Scene, End Scene, Fire, etc. are not documented in the manual. I've figured out begin and end scene (pretty simple), what do the rest do and what parameters do they take.<br/>
<br/>
And, why aren't these documented appropriately? Perhaps I ...

I agree with Count Sessine, the detail is very nice. Can you post some general painting techniques you seem to use on each model in the modding forum? I'm sure you have lotsa time to do that! Things like weathering, poly edge hightlights, simulated lighting, etc. Whatever ...

<r> Damocles, I take it you're using gmax to build those great models? Just curious. And great job.<br/>
<br/>
I not only abandoned Magic, but Milkshape as well - and I've never liked max. However, I've started using Wings3D which not only does good low poly modelling, the UV texturing is the ...

See my "modfile.exe works?" thread at the bottom of this forum section. Mehrunes elborates and gives examples. Take his last bit of advice: restart stars.exe after activating a mod.

That brings up a ? I have after patching to 4.01. The mod enabler seems to be very touchy. After upgrading to 4.01, I went and disabled 2 of 4 I had installed. Then went to a mission that had a ship from an enabled mod, but starshatter could not see the asset. Stop/Start ...

Thanks, I think my ISP was having server problems last night. Got the text and the new Magic. I'll look at the proc you sent and make a decision. I left off quite a few pieces on the last model that are small and are problems for me painting. I might try Magic texturing again ...

Just checking to see if the email I sent reached you and if you have any insight about why I cannot import into MS or Unwrap3D. Thanks,

piperone

Finally found a valid email on the starshatter forums. Sent it to milo@starshatter.com

Thanks,

Got it - and that works nicely for me since I've grouped all my parts already. I notice that the export function will work with only one named group (hence if I wanted to unwrap the body and left/right engines together, I should create another group). I'm "assuming" (without ...
