As anyone played Desert Fox by Rawder? + a probably bug

Post by enric »

I don't see the correct texture of some icons, posted in the general forum (viewtopic.php?t=28533) without a solution.

Send an image to Slitherine with this answer:
Hi Enric

I'm not sure why some of the models are textured and some are not. If you post your issue to our forum using viewforum.php?f=103 one of our technical support staff will be able to assist you with your issue.

Kind Regards

I think the problem is in the files:
panzerII.dds
panzerjager1.dds

I'll like to re-install the campaign, but I don't know how.
I selected the campaign and then delete (right bottom corner) a dialog ask me for confirmation: ok: But the campaign is not deleted, quit BA, re-start, the campaign is still there.
Happens on MacOS, maybe the delete procedure "thinks" only in "Windows path" for deleting...

Hmmm - you could be right. I definitely don't remember testing that aspect :(. You can easily delete it by hand, just go to your ~\Documents\My Games\BBCBA\Campaigns folder and delete the appropriate folder.

I'm not sure that reinstalling the campaign will fix the issue. I think it's a problem with the specific way the files have been saved and OpenGL. When I get a moment I will take a look at the textures and see exactly what the issue is.

Cheers

The problem is in these files I'm near sure…, I tried using the panzerII.dds, and panzerjager1.dds took from:
---BA.app:Contents:Resources:Data:Battle:UnitTextures:panzerII.dds and panzerjager1.dds

And then the icons are not completely white, they have a loock gray/black appropriate for Bulge or France, not for the Desert, where the texture are more yellow/brown, but I think that the problem is in these files. 40

My question is: nobody has played that campaign?

It's an issue specific to the Mac. This is a user campaign created before the Mac version existed.

Cheers
