The CEP causing crashes? How's that even possible when it isn't available for download.

Depends which version of Nexus you have.
The version on sale at Steam should have MP capability after the latest patch (version 1.02).
I haven't seen that much activity in the lobby. When I start a game sometimes somebody wanders in, but not many people start a MP server.

« on: March 26, 2016, 15:51:57 »Now that I know that a Nexus model viewer exists, I'll have to locate it (I assume its either a mod tool on this website, or in the install folder) and give it a whirl. I think once I have a better understanding of how the ship operates it'll be a lot easier for me going forward.
The mod tools can be found under Nexus The Jupiter Incident\mod_tools. The model viewer is called 'viewer_DX9'.

Welcome to the forums.
The artstuff of the game is largely beyond me. I'd say The Old Dragon is the man to ask for.
The tool link you showed us seems a corrupt one. Perhaps this is the one Dragon meant.

Definitely true regarding unused and unfinished meshes.
Background activity? You mean extra secondary objectives, or 'civilian' traffic/objects not directly related to the mission at hand? There are a couple missions (especially the ones with stations in it) that lend themself for that.

« on: February 14, 2016, 19:32:55 »
Questions to the participants of this 'little' project.
For instance, do you feel my little relabeling of planets and moons in sol system is worthy of extending to the other star systems in the game? Should objects within star systems be open for repositioning in order to simplify or make them more visual interesting? That last one would likely need fixed positions in briefings to be reworked.
There's a dozen or so unused device meshes in the earth\devices map. Do we link existing weapons to these to show more diversity?
Do we use or switch other meshes from within the game? I am for instance fond of the kisszallito_01 model over the escape_pod model as old Earth shuttle. The latter looks too Noahish to me.
Or even models from outside? I spotted a nice usable fighter model or two in Arparso's Freespace Evolution mod with not too many polies (if he's willing to see it used elsewhere).

Underneath & Vertical?
Anyway, way out of my bailiwick.
Just wondering, would it be a service to have a list of observed mesh/model errors/malfunctions available, or would that come over too daunting?

I don't even know what that means. Ultra-Violet mapping?
'Barely' 2,5k polies, Dragon.
But I bet that they put alot more love in the Gorg fighter, even if its RCS thrusters don't work.

Weird. Try as I might, I can't spot a seam when using the planet_Leonis_a texture.

I'm not surprised with Phobos. The mesh needs more then one texture.
phobos, phobos01, and phobos02.
Deimos uses asteroid_1024x512_012.
Some of those texture files in the textures\planets folder are not used, or double up.

Beautiful. 
Did you create them inverted?
I don't see polar caps on Mars? Out of view?

I placed Sargoth's conversions in the game's demo mission.
Below a couple screenshots.
It's run in the original game, not the GOG version.

Does the original texture show a seam as well on the sphere mesh at your end?

I noticed that too on my reversed Mars texture.
Have you tried using your texture on jstubbles sphere mesh (battlestar galactica mod, version 4.1-4.5 I believe) to see if the seem disappears?
Something else, could you check your texture/planets folder and tell me if the sol_0503_europa texture on your end is another size then 683 kb? I'm not sure if the one on my end was one I created years ago, or the original one.

Are these screenshots taken from the solar system file that ships with the game, or with the one I tinkered with?
It shouldn't be much of a problem to "shift" the side Charon and Pluto show towards the shukenja beta asteroid field. And the final solution could be to make the Shukenja Beta asteroid field the barycenter of Pluto and Charon. In other words, they would orbit around the asteroid field, same side always showing towards the mission map.

Installed. Seems to work fine.
Overwrote some files (01, 02, 03, 10.ini) in the MOVIES folder to check things out.
Its how far I came with the movie subtitles sofar.
