Need help with Illuminations with SFC3
« on: November 03, 2005, 01:55:26 am »
For some reason, I can't get Illumination Maps to work with any models I use in SFC3.  I downloaded some models from Altraharis's website (mostly TOS stuff) but the Illumination maps are not appearing when I load the game.  Is there anything special I need to do to make lightmaps show up?  Moding SFC3 is quite a bit harder then OP.   ::)

Models for SFC2/OP and SFC3 are pretty much the same, except for the LODs and the way the hardpoints are done on the actual model itself.  SFC3 doesn't use LODs.  If an SFC2/OP ship has lightmaps attached to the model, then they should be working in SFC3. 
The pen is truly mightier than the sword.  And considerably easier to write with.

If irember correctly his older models had .mods foe both  the original sfc(no light maps) game and eaw/op. might you be using the wrong one?
 Just a thought.
