Irregular programming Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) My smoke tells me to obey, consume, no indipendent thought, stay asleep, and this is your god.. I am pretty sure it has something to do with my new glasses though. Edited June 1, 2012 by Irregular programming 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gear_monkey Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 It seems to only occur on objects that I destroy...I flew over a downed enemy helicopter that my forces shot down and it didn't happen.

Blah Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Weird! I'm guessing it's the beginning of "WARNING" and underneath, the beginning of "MISSION" or maybe "MISSILE"?... Some strange kind of texture corruption? Edited June 2, 2012 by Blah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teapot Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 It's all part of the shadowy scheme to inoculate us with the idea of the imminent armagedon ... you know Control and Kaos agents were greeting cards salesmen in public life, ED/DCS make flight-sims.

Kaiza Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 LOL Yeah I am betting it says "WARNING MISSING TEXTURE" Looks like your texture files may be corrupt. Reinstall should fix it :thumbup: [url=http://www.aef-hq.com.au/aef4/forumdisplay.php?262-Digital-Combat-Simulator][SIGPIC]http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/2500/a10161sqnsignitureedite.png[/SIGPIC][/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gear_monkey Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 That is the missing texture texture. Reinstall I downloaded a new copy of World and A-10, reinstalled...still have same issue.

WildFire Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Yeah I tried two reinstalls yesterday, going to download AGAIN.... But I am also getting the missing texture. At first I thought it was a mod but I replaced the originals back in and I was still getting missing textures. Would like to know if this is verified WORKING to anyone or if its just a texture or some deal forgotten about in the beta. 00128.641 ERROR DXRENDERER: DXDefTexture: failed to open file dcsfiretex.png 00128.645 ERROR DXRENDERER: DXDefTexture: failed to open file smokenormanim.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildFire Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Missing texture tested both on tank and transport. Tested with most recent nvidia drivers, however rolled back and tested on previous drivers. My directX reflects the old drivers. Fresh install last night and tested. This afternoon re-downloaded dcs world + P-51 +A-10 modules and full install.

Grimes Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Just curious, but could you check the gameinstall\bazar\ParticleEffects\Textures\ folder to see if the files are there. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Panzertard Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Is anyone going to come around and say if this is a bug or a localized problem? 2 testers can't reproduce with your file with the latest build. If you get the problem again, you may have to have a look at your local config. The mind is like a parachute.

WildFire Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Thanks. Yes the files are in particle effects, I verified all the related files and even took a look at the lau's that call the textures to make sure they were all addressed right. As a last option I have thought about putting the two missing textures in the temp texture folder to see if that works. Really all I want to know is if everyone is having a problem with smoke or if this is only certain systems? Build a simple mission blow up a single vehicle, zoom on smoke and see what you get. If its a localized problem I can then beginning troubleshooting on my end to find the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason the sim is not reading that texture for the smoke.

WildFire Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Two re-installs, followed by newly downloaded dcs world and aircraft modules, then reinstall, same issue. I guess this means for some people it is in fact working or I'll have to assume it is. Is not the first time a problem has persisted through multiple installs.
