Howdy all;

 

i came back and just thought id drop this post in. I started using a custom Weapons hak by Feanor (Feanor's Mediaeval Armoury 2.1) by far the best weapons i seen in respect towards actual medieval weaponary.

 

The issue i get with this is i cant really see the weapons in game? they appear see through or translucent. I dont use any other weapons haks, just Feanors (along with cep, but this overrides cep).

 

In the toolset, they show just fine. Everything is fluent and solid, even shiny like a reguler texture

 

has anyone heard of this before? And does anyone know how i could fix this?

Now i do use cep tlk, but i didt think this would a part of the problem.

By chance do you have enviromental mapping on creatures checked off in your video settings?

[Wall3T]

Im not sure, how do i check for that?

 

Edit:

 

ok just looked, I had that unchecked. From searching on that particular issue, I found it was a fix for shadows and certain graphics cards. The weapons are still flourescent or "see-through"

Update:

 

I decided to setup a Gnomish Weapons test lab er/ a test module, to try and decipher why these weapons appear the way they do. Armed with the great minds of many gnomes er/ my intuition in what i can to get these to appear correctly.

 

Below ive some images showing that i have enable environmental shadows and craeture shadows off

and the following image showing that it seems to only effect certain weapons, The crossbows (or Arbalest) above are shown very clearly and very defined. While the swords appear "see through" or flourescent

This one shows the really bad appaerances, the polarms appear nearly invisible (of course it is in a shady part of the lab. Been meaning to address that with my minions er cohorts ). With exception of the Halberd which appears very defined

And the last. Showing all the maces and "blunt" weapons. Appaering much the same as the swords

Does anybody know what causes this? could it just be a forsight on the creators skill? or maybe just a simple fix?

Newer video cards often dont properly support older DirectX and OpenGl command sets...

 

The Alpha channel that was intended to indicate reflection is instead getting rended as transparent by "lazy" video card drivers that ship with modern hardware (as my guess at least).

 

Assumedly the soloution is to make them non-shiney.

Download the Microsoft DirectX 9.0c SDK and install that - it will install the missing driect X dlls needed to make older games render correctly.

hugh thats intresting;

 

i hadnt really expected it to be a software issue. I will have to try this see if it fixes it. If it doesnt oh well, i think i spent a good enough time on it with my Gnomish Engineers trying to decipher the issue. thanks for everyones help, it was invaluable
