Losing Parent Links

Post by Malc »

reHi,

I got the frame rate problem fixed, not sure how but I believe it was a problem with the .THR file!

Now I have another problem...

I made my te_new.tac file and put in all the links, etc as required.

I start F4, select TE, then create a new one. All is well... I view a few objectives and they all appear complete with names. Now I go into teams, change the ownership of a piece of terrain, and when I get back to mission planner, I now have a load of "Nowhere" for bridges (eg) that are named from Parent Linking.

It looks like when I change ownership, the parent links are lost! Any ideas...?

Last count was 643, but I'm adding to this all the time. Not alot by Korea standards (approx 10 percent), but I have a lot less land to play with too! :)

I'm in the process of adding "military" objectives right now, and when happy, I'll create the instant.cam and have a go at creating at least one campaign for a release package.

Once I have a release, I'm going to start adding custom textures etc. Could do with some graphic talents for skins and a new UI too...

Okay so what I was thinking is not the cause of your nowhere names.

When you're ready to create the campaign let me know and I'll help you out on the TCL scripts.

Ta mate - an email is on its way...

Found a solution to the "nowhere" problem. I don't like it but it is fool-proof.

Oh well... life is a compromise I suppose! :)
