Neverending Slip Stream
« on: August 30, 2011, 09:37:07 PM »
Seems like everytime I try to use Slip Stream to go to the system labelled as "GalaxyEdge", I get to the end of the ETA within the slip stream tunnel, but I never drop out.

It just keeps going, and going, and going, and going...

It's like, when flying to this system, that I am flying an over-eager energizer bunny.  :funny

Anyway, anyone else have this, and is it a Slip Stream issue, or a Galaxy Charts issue?

Console report required. Probably an error in the system file causing an error in initialization of the system scripts.

ive had that issue before as well, but i found that when i warped to the system normally it would simply crash. so im thinking its what sovvy says it is, an issue with the system itself and not Slipstream
I came, i saw, i added a Sig.
Later gents, i have Youtube to take over.

Console log attached to this post.

Also, installing the latest planetary system mods (http://bridgecommander.filefront.com/file/Promellian_Asteroid_System;118897) and (http://bridgecommander.filefront.com/file/Vintaak_System_tholian_dock;118842) from SFRD seems to have broken Galaxy Charts.

Black lens flare in the galaxy edge system py seems to be your problem, either your lens flare py is old or there is something else wrong, though I'm just seeing what is in console report.

And as for the Tholian Dock system, you seem to be missing the dock itself....

Though wait until Sovs verdict :P

jb is pretty much correct. Is the TholianDock listed as a requirement or is supplied with the mod? As this changes things if it's included, it would mean that the mod is broken.

Trust me to quickly gloss at the Vintaak system readme, and not look at the requirements properly.  :P

That's a fail on my part. My bad. :(

As for the black lens flare problem in GalaxyEdge, that is not my fault, and any help to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

Code: [Select]
Tactical.LensFlares.BlackFlares(pSet, pSun)

This is your problem scripts actually specify BC to build them like this. Also if you have DS9FX Xtended it really shows with the new Lens flare effects.

Change these to something different and also the sun texture paths and you're done.

I have DS9FX, and yeah, the lens flares effect in it are spectacular.

What do you recommend that I change them to?

We all have different tastes so here's a list of available lens flares in Xtended.
Code: [Select]
RedOrangeLensFlare
YellowLensFlare
BlueLensFlare
WhiteLensFlare
DimBlueLensFlare
PurpleLensFlare

Also change the path to sun base textures:
Code: [Select]
pSun = App.Sun_Create(2000.0, 2200, 2500, "data/Textures/SunBlack.tga", "data/Textures/Effects/SunFlaresBlack.tga")

Changed. No effect. It's just giving the same error again, but this time with DimBlueLensFlare, which is what I changed it to. And yes, I did delete the pyc before making any changes.

Some other mod might have overwritten Xtended's LensFlare... paste this into scripts/tactical

Same result. Neverending slipstream. I can't even use GalaxyEdge as the starting system because of this error. Everytime I try, it just loads of the Belaruz system instead.

I can warp there just fine, I just can't start there, or use slipstream to get to it.

Judging by the console report you didn't replace all of them. Using the lensflares I posted use this also.
