Weird graphic issue - Rev Rico - 12-02-2011 Guys, I'm playing my own scn which has its own OOB, PDT, SCN files and some extra graphics. I update the game and then one of my unit graphics no longer works. I checked the folder and it's still where it should be, but the unit is blank. Any ideas? Bob RE: Weird graphic issue - Compass Rose - 12-02-2011 Did you update the game before adding your own OOB, PDT, SCN, and graphics files, or after? RE: Weird graphic issue - Philippe - 12-03-2011 A leading cause of vanishing graphics has always been the invisible space that sneaks into a file name either in the instructions for the game to read it, or on the file itself. It's gotten to the point that I almost never write out a file name if I can go into rename, copy the original title, delete the source bitmap, and paste the old name into the new bitmap's naming field. It's a really insidious problem, because that space usually doesn't look like it's there: sometimes it's there twice and sometimes it isn't there at all. Just hope your problem comes from what I'm describing, and isn't something worse or system-related. RE: Weird graphic issue - Lowlander - 12-03-2011 Have seen this a couple of times, check the unit name with the missing graphics, then check the graphic file is correctly named with any Capital letters, spaces, brackets etc. RE: Weird graphic issue - Rev Rico - 12-03-2011 (12-02-2011, 11:07 PM)Checkmate King 2 Wrote: Did you update the game before adding your own OOB, PDT, SCN, and graphics files, or after? No, it was an existing scn I've had for years. I was in the middle of playing a PBeM of it when I noticed the empty pic. Other than the official update, NOTHING else was changed.

Ive done mods for all my games.

Weird. Makes no sense. O well, at least it works now. |
