Random acts of violence with Shipmaker

You hate me don't you As I was skimming screenshots I saw that and thought 'No, they wouldn't...' guess I jinxed myself. But I did almost finish the one above it...

Star Destroyers can't deploy their fighters. Intensify the forward firepower! *Boom*

[jwa8402]

Well if someone knows specifically what causes that I would be grateful to hear it, but in my current version fighters have been temporarily removed cuz of other problems. So I'm a day or two away from being able to release it but do you want me to wait until the Death Star is finished or just release it now? I've added several dozen ships already.

The download for the ships on filesmelt didnt work is there another link u can post to download it?

[jwa8402]

erm, which ships are you talking about? Mine are all uploaded to the forum server here. You mean Arcanedude's halo ships? Don't remember which page their on so I'll have to go look, but if their not and hes not around, I can reupload them to the forum probably. I'm going to fix the first post so all this is much easier...

its this one here viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4534&start=30

[jwa8402]

Oh gawd, that ship? Well I probably have it somewhere but I'll have to dig it out from the network cuz its sure not on my computer. I might try rebuilding it though.

Just finished a Mimbari Sharlin cruiser. I'm experimenting with retexturing some sprites for it like I did for the shadows, whitestar, and Vorlons. Might post it late tonight or tomorrow depending on how quickly that goes.

lol im assuming its abad ship

[jwa8402]

Meh, just old, and I ignored alot of good advice...

Anyway, a rough attempt at a Mimbari cruiser...Still gotta swap a few sections out like the ugly blank ones in back but I'm much too tired right now.

[mato9020]

cool. how big are the ships?

[Arcalane]

I have no idea what's up with the ship deployer thing.

Have you tried the usual fixes jwa, i.e. reselecting the ship to be deployed, checking for mirroring problems, etc.? If you haven't already done so, deleting and replacing the deployers might be the easiest way.
That said, which ship is the problem, I haven't really been paying attention but if the .sb4 is there I take a look and see if I can find/fix the problem.

Star Destroyer and Super Star Destroyer and Rebel Nebulon B frigate. I can send them all. Make sure you have installed star wreck and the custom sprites. Otherwise you're going to get a whole lot more errors.

[Bad Boy]

Strange, I got no errors at all. I used the default star wreck ships and I opened and saved your sb4s without problem. If you'd like to post up your shp files as well I can see if I get the errors at all.
The errors happened with jwa's ships right? You didn't open and resave the .sb4 or anything right?

[jwa8402]

The only error I get has, I think, to do with trying to make player controlled ships launch AI controlled fighters. I think I kept the wrong version is all. Anyway, I've deleted all the ship deployers though I may try putting them back on in a bit to see if that clears it. This happened with all my ships though, not just the star destroyers so I think its a different error.

The problem I am having though, is that in game the shields are showing up. I double checked in shipmaker and they are set as additive and are invisible there. Is there a visual setting I need to change? I reinstalled so not sure I got everything the way it was...
