Flower Farm L node error

[Terre]

The single node is pointing in the wrong direction; back up through the structure. As you can see from the attached pictures, the node face plate is blanked, causing a nasty kink in my complex; I hoping a re-string when the model is sorted out will straighten things up.

How the node worked in X3:R

For some reason it is now blanked

You also have an example of blue billboard syndrome in the bottom left hand corner.

Seems the node's still there in TC but at a weird angle:

same for M Flower Farm

Had a look at the Flower Farm L scene files (argon_farm_M_factory_G_scene.bod) & it seems in TC they have used the old scene file
from Reunion:02.cat (30/09/05), instead of the one that got fixed in Reunion:07.cat (28/03/06).
Same for the Flower Farm M (argon_farm_S_factory_G_scene.bod).

Oh well, easy to patch then - just choose the right scene file

Thankfully this potentially only affects a few factories, cos not many needed fixing in Reunion (not including 'wrecks')

Contenders are:

station scenes:

Reunion:04.cat
Crystal fabs : farm\argon_farm_S_factory_B_scene.bod 17/10/05, TC 02.cat version has same date OK
Argon Trading Station : others\argon_spacedock_scene.bod 04/10/05, TC 02.cat version has same date OK


and station models (nodes appear to be OK):

Reunion:06.cat
Cahoona L : food\argon_food_M_factory_B.bob 14/03/06, TC 02.cat version has later date 17/07/08,
(can't see what's changed myself, possibly mainly clearing out unused textures?)
Cahoona M : food\argon_food_S_factory_B.bob 14/03/06, TC 02.cat version has older date 17/07/08, ditto
Soyery M : food\argon_food_S_factory_D.bob 14/03/06, TC 02.cat version has older date 19/08/08, ditto

So looks like you found the only two bad-node stations, i.e. Flower M & L.
(or at least none that are worse then ones that were slightly odd at the end of X3:R patching).

Many thanks for having a look and confirming the factories deranged state.

Another faulty factory model was covered in the following thread.

Your model viewer is a very handy utility.
