Tailhook · April 10, 2020

Try a clean reinstall (or update) of your video card driver.

I haven't used the Model Viewer 2 for a few months, now I wanted to continue working on my skins. But the MV quits without error message as soon as I want to open an EDM file, does anyone have the same problem and is there a solution?

I have completely reinstalled the beta client but it did not help.

Zer07 · November 25, 2020

I have found the error. Under "Saved Games" there is another directory of the Model Viewer, I have deleted it and now the program works again... :music_whistling:

CarloVecchi · November 26, 2020

Sorry for hijacking this threat, but i have a Problem with the MV 2.

It starts when I open it as Admin.

But somehow I´m not able to open textures.

I have set my textures path (more times) but won´t work. anyone got a solution?

Or is somewhere explained how to set the path right? :confused:

Habu_69 · November 26, 2020

How does one change a model's livery in MV2?

ESA_Falke · January 2, 2021

my MV2 closes when I try to load a model... Any idea why this happens?

Try deleting the edModelViewer folders in saved games.

Edited January 2, 2021 by joey45

ESA_Falke · January 2, 2021

ok, it worked to load the 3d model, but the textures did not come out ... I remember that I had to modify the path in which I was looking for the textures but I don't remember which file ... could you tell me what it is?

Thank you very much for the help!

...ok i found it, the file path is this:

DCS World \ Config \ ModelViewer \ autoexec.lua

and insert the two lines marked in red. You must adjust the path so that it fits your environment.

print("----------------------------------------------------------------")
print("scan for textures and liveries")
scan_for_textures("CoreMods")
print("----------------------------------------------------------------")
scan_for_textures("Mods")
scan_for_textures("C:\\Users\\youruser\\Saved Games\\DCS\\Mods")
scan_for_textures("C:\\Users\\youruser\\Saved Games\\DCS\\Liveries")
scan_for_environment_cubes("Bazar/EffectViewer/envcubes")
print("scan done")
print("----------------------------------------------------------------")

I have the same problem, its just not even opening.

Helles Belle · April 15, 2021

And now we start again....

The above two lines pasted above worked perfectly for all mods that I could tell.

Now after the great 2.7 update of 2021 we're seemingly back to:

mount_vfs_liveries_path ("C:/Users/USERNAME/Saved Games/DCS/Liveries")
mount_vfs_models_path ("C:/Users/USERNAME/Saved Games/DCS/Mods")

But this doesn't work anywhere near as well and seems a step backwards to the dark days of MV1.

e.g. loading the A-4 mod, after the model has been loaded at least once, choosing File > Recent Files loads the A-4 in the lovely missingtexture digital green camo.

you then need to go to mount textures > mount folder and locate the A-4 textures folder

then you need to reload models to get the skin to show with any roughmets etc.

AND, it still leaves missing textures such as the canopy glass & position lights etc

this of course has to be done every time MV2 is restarted

With mods such as @Bungo great HMAS Melbourne mod, I can't get a single texture to load.

Is it really that hard to fix and keep fixed or is just that they don't care.

Any way 1st world problems, I'll put the lid back on my jar of Tourettes & have a beer now.

Focker out!

As posted in another thread.

OK, using the latest autoexec.lua I copied the following lines at starting at line 19.

               '.png' == ext or
               '.tga' == ext) then
                   mount_vfs_texture_path(path)
                   mounted_already = true
           end
       end
       end
   end
end

THEN at line 67 (after the function scan_for_environment_cubes(path) group)

This seems to be working for me anyway.

It's brought back all liveries and textures and it doesn't need to be redone everytime.

I am unable to open model viewer similar to you guys. I am wondering if its a path issue.

Quote

function scan_for_textures(path)
   local lower_case = path:lower()
   if lower_case:find("liveries") then
   mount_vfs_liveries_path(path)
   return
   end
   local is_texture_path = lower_case:find("texture") ~= nil
   local mounted_already = false
   for file in lfs.dir(path) do
       if not service_file(file) then
       local fn    = path.."/"..file
       local attr    = lfs.attributes (fn)
       if attr.mode   == "directory" then
           scan_for_textures(fn)
       elseif is_texture_path then
           local ext = string.sub(file,-4)
           if '.zip' == ext then
                   mount_vfs_texture_path(fn)
           elseif not mounted_already and (
               '.dds' == ext or
           '.bmp' == ext or
               '.jpg' == ext or
               '.png' == ext or
               '.tga' == ext) then
                   mount_vfs_texture_path(path)
                   mounted_already = true
           end
       end
       end
   end
end

Any ideas on how to fix this? I try to delete the ed modelviwer in the saved games folder, but it populates again right when I open the model viewer
