Hi all:

Well, I don't what I've done but I've lost my PBY hangar. As I'm placing objects on the ground I toggle through the objects using the down cursor key when I notice the same building staying on the ground twice. I go one more key stroke and hit the next hangar. I toggle up one key stroke and the same hangar stays on the ground.

I've run into this before with missing objects so I go into the 3do\buildings\Pacific folder. No Hangar_PBY of course because it's an old object. I open the fb_3do08p.SFS file and proceed to 3do\Buildings\Pacific. There's the little bugger right there - Hangar_PBY. I copy it and go back to STD\3do\Buildings\Pacific and paste the folder there. Still no joy.

In the static.ini file I've replaced the lines:
MeshLive 3do/Buildings/Pacific/Hangar_PBY/live.sim
MeshDead 3do/Buildings/Pacific/Hangar_PBY/dead.sim

with:
MeshLive 3do/Buildings/Pacific/Hangar_Briq2/live.sim
MeshDead 3do/Buildings/Pacific/Hangar_Briq2/dead.sim

Now it shows up but of course it's not really the PBY hangar. Doing this would globally replace every PBY hangar on every map with the Briq2 hangar - someting I don't particularly want.

Can anyone help out here?

Great days all.

Have you installed the objects_visibility mod? I found that that mod (still a beta so the fault's on no one) does corrupt the Hanger_PBY object. If you have the mod installed (great mod btw) try disabling it by renaming the MODS\objects_visibility\3do folder to x3do.

Hope this helps .....

Thanks a miilion my friend. I went one step farther and removed the Hangar_PBY from the Pacific folder in the objects_visibility mod folder. This way i keep everything else in the mod - I hope.

For now at least, everything is back to normal.

Great days all.

not on subject, but perhaps you could give me a link to the mod's download?

for some reason I can't use the link provided and I haven't received a response there.

thanks in advance.

PS. if you could send me perhaps your copy with the PBY hanger fixed/removed, I'd appreciate it. If not I'll see if I can fix it myself though.

Here's the link to the thread and download:

I just dl'd it again to see if it works and all was ok.

One of the posts singles out the PBY hangar as a problem. I unfortunately dl'd this mod before any problems cropped up and didn't see this.

Great days all.
