Amphex Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I downloaded some new faces and items and after I went ingame to try them out the faces appear invisible when you make a character or npcs that use the faces have a giant yellow diamond on them and they're headless. It happens with objects too, either they show up as purple diamonds or yellow ones. I think I follow the directions correctly when I installed the plugins. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

General Edor Crespin Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 What was the name of the plugin? Are you POSITIVE all files are in the right folder? Try installing again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amphex Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 The ones messing up are abu`s retreat, all rheddheads, and a few others. I`ll go ahead and redownload them again. Hopefully thats the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narynzine Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 I use both of those, no problems here. As has already been said, the problem is probably that files are in the wrong place, or missing(make sure you use the right unzipping program for the file. I used winace to unzip a winrar file a few times and found that it doesn't unzip all the files properly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amphex Posted February 24, 2004 Author Share Posted February 24, 2004 should i use winrar? I`m using winzip at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narynzine Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 It depends on what type of file it is. I generally use winace for .zip and .ace files and winrar for .rar files.In my experience it's best to use winrar for rar files, as other programs have trouble unzipping all of the files for some reason.

drowst Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 You have to be careful of where things are unzipped/unrared. Some folks when the package the files will assume your directory structure is the same as theirs, and the files will then get put in the wrong place. Sometimes I haven't paid attention and have put things in the wrong place myself. Net result was that I had multiple folders for icons and meshes and had to copy things to the right place. I had a similar experience to yours, and it was due to stuff not going where it should have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amphex Posted February 24, 2004 Author Share Posted February 24, 2004 My computer has been taken back again. So, when I get it back I`ll try and correct the problem. I got most of the files redownloaded. Thanks for the helping guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amphex Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 I redownloaded everything with missing meshes or textures with winrar, but they are still not showing up. Could someone help me out with this please? I might try e-mailing the mod makers for help. Are you guys sure that a god awful graphics card could be the problem. The one I use is one of those generic dell ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peregrine Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 The graphics card shouldn't be the problem. That yellow triangle is the default model that only shows up when the game can't find the intended model at all. Even the worst card in existence shouldn't create missing files.
