ok, so my new model looks fine in hardpoint editor, it looks fine at the planet's ship and equipment dealers, but when I launch to space I am flying a black wireframe blob.
A zip file of the cmp, mat and sur files is attached.
This is my first custom ship. I actually created this years ago, and just found it on a backup drive. It's so close to finished i would be nice to get it working and make it available to the community.
thanks
Your models wireframe seems extremely detailed. I don't know if Freelancer has a poly limit, but maybe it runs into a rendering problem here
your textures dont even show up in hardcmp for me
so i assume that something really went wrong when you exported the model
Very strange that you don't see the textures in hardcmp. I load it into HardCMP and see them. The texture is just a shiny chrome look, no markings except on the undercarriage.
I linked my .cmp to a new entry in shiparch, new package in goods etc. I see the ship fine on the planet, before I launch. It looks beautiful.
After I launch I see a solid black prism, with white lines around the edges. The object is pretty small, just enough to house the engines. I can fly it normally, use all mounts, like thrusters, mines, CM, all weapons fire.
I used UTF editor to compare my cmp and mat files to some that work and there are no obvious differences. I'm out of ideas for things to try.
i would suggest to re-export it
SWAT, did you open the cmp directly out of WinRAR or whatever you use?
nope, extracted it before
