S&S Screamin' Swing Flat Ride

no I am using IE

I've uploaded a new version of the ride. Can someone test it and and see if they get the same error?

Keep on updating yours!

I still get the same error on version 3 :/

To be honest, I didn't think what I did would fix it, I was trying to keep as much of the textures as I could. I just have a quick modification to the model to make and it should fix it, although make it a bit uglier since I can only use solid colours and not textures.

I've now another version of the ride, the textures have been downgraded to just single blocks of colour instead of actual textures, but it should stop the errors.

The problem lies in the fact the 3D object appears to try and reference to a file as it is on your system. Clearly I don't have ""C:\Users\forfe_000\Documents\com.nolimitscoaster.nolimits2\FlatRides\_Metal_A.jpg"" as a folder system on my computer. When I extract your package these files exist so that would suggest that the 3D model is referencing an absolute filename rather than a relative filename.

For instance if your flatride main file was in
"C:/user/me/flatrides/ScreamingSwing"

current the images are set to be pointing at
"C:/user/me/flatrides/images/metal.jpg"

whereas you want them to be pointing at:
"images/metal.jpg"

(I would've figured this out earlier but I've only today been able to have a proper look at what was going on!)

I realise this, I think the problem is when I use LightWave to change the 3 3ds objects in to the 1. 3ds files and lwo files must save textures in 2 different ways, like the lwo files save the entire path to the file while 3ds only saves as much as it needs, or something.

I'm still getting to grips with LightWave a the moment, so if I get to a point where I can add textures reliably, I'll put them back in.

thanks for all the work you have done. the swing looks great in my park and I look forward to seeing more rides from you.
