Thankyou exogenesis. Trying this on for size now... WOW! I love the b/g space effect. And this version seems to have more tools. I'm glad I've seen most of the ships in X3:TC by now because it's hard not to look at every one of them now. That could be a spoiler. Another is the weapon cones, showing where every ships weakest point is. Sweet.
You have designed an awesome tool for the community. Thanks a bunch.
[EDIT for more cool stuff] The cockpit/turret views are awesome , and some are surprising ie: where you're sitting exactly while flying in your ship.

Interesting that 'invalid args' went, not sure I can explain that.
Good to hear it works on Vista64.
A) Loading .bod/.bob files without loading the game-files - difficult, since it needs to know where e.g. bod-scene component bod/bob files are in the cat files,
but you're right it wouldn't need to parse the T*.txt game-files- maybe I'll add a 'quick load' sticky option.
B) Multithreading - haven't thought about that yet, don't think it would help tbh.
The spray shop slowness is due to it actually changing the textures in memory on-the-fly, it shouldn't affect the final rendering fame rate.
Actually since textures got a lot bigger in TC (4x typical), this is a lot slower than it was in Reunion.
If I could find out how to use the Egosoft-shader light-rendering correctly, this would be very much quicker, cos it would be the same as in-game (ie instantaneous).

At what point does that appear - after loading the game-files, or when loading a ship?
surferx : cheers *has another swig of beer*
These extra features are what took me so long to get a release out.

Downloaded that pluginmanager.cat, thanks. Seems a bit small to contain much, will have a test

After I originally submitted the post I thought it was the wrong file. I deleted the post so I could go and check it without leaving a link to a possible wrong file.exogenesis wrote:Downloaded that pluginmanager.cat, thanks. Seems a bit small to contain much, will have a test
Strange. After I saved the screenie to the desktop I opened it with the 'Windows Picture and Fax Viewer' without any problems. After I uploaded it, I dl it to check to see if the linky was OK. It also opened.exogenesis wrote:Getting a 'not a valid JPEG file' from the filefactory download 'screenshot.jpg'

..wow, that sorts the problem out perfectly - cheers, IvanCIvanC wrote:I had the same problem. I have a few fake patches, scripts and 2 mods. What worked for me is leaving the Plugin Manager opened and minimized it. It loads unmodded, mod1, and mod2. Works like a champ.
exogenesis, awsome program dude, Thank you.
- this is a brilliant piece of work, exo
- the graphics are amazing - great design - love the new icons, etc
- now the player can really check out those weak spots on the enemy's craft in detail..
- it is the "must-have" addition to the game..!!
- the whole universe is running in BETA mode - we're working on it.. beep..!!

I can also confirm that this fixes the problem (for me at least)IvanC wrote:I had the same problem. I have a few fake patches, scripts and 2 mods. What worked for me is leaving the Plugin Manager opened and minimized it. It loads unmodded, mod1, and mod2. Works like a champ.

Pretty sure when playing X3:R I spent more time using the models viewer than I did playing the actual game. Now with all these sweet new features I might never manage to start X3:TC again!

that's really odd about needing pluginmanager open, implies a system dll version problem - I'll investigate
MBD
thanks for the info, will investigate, it's probable I've only tested Ashley v2.3 XTM specific, not the v2.5 'general' version.

What sort of error do you get with the K & J ?

a) sorry, that may have been bad phrasing on my part. I was just suggesting adding a gate to the list of things that can be opened within the viewer rather than having to point the viewer to it's files manually.exogenesis wrote:A) Loading .bod/.bob files without loading the game-files - difficult, since it needs to know where e.g. bod-scene component bod/bob files are in the cat files,

You don't need to leave Pluginmanager open. For me it works perfectly, when I delete or temporarily move 0X.cat and *.dat files, which are created by the manager, to another directory. Maybe the slightly modified versions of TWareT.txt and/or TWareN.txt inside the *.cat cause the crash.
