Very nice addon, but it has a small bug: from a distance the weapon loses it's texture, and appears dead white. I have seen this bug in a few other user made weapons before...does anyone know a fix for this?

[Rastavovich 0]

yes, then the distance lod has an error, the importer has to fix that.

or the lod is just not skinned

Hi guys I put the M79 into O2 for NZ-PsychoKiwi so i checked the lods. Every lod is textured so i don't know what the problem is and i have no problem with 1.46. Dunno about resistance though.

I'd put money on it being a HWT&L issue..

[Major Fubar 0]

I'm using 1.46, and I get the problem. I'm using a Geforce 2 (Asus 7100) video card...

I have also seen this problem in the AWP addon by Desert Storm mod...

[Johnboy 0]

Yep I was correct...

HWT&L ON = no distance textures

HWT&L OFF = distance textures WORK..

Well that's weird, because my card doesn't allow to turn HW T&L on, it's always off...

[colonel_klink 0]

My Geforce 2 MX works ok with the HW T&L turned on or off. Dunno what the problem could be.

I bet Hogan and the gang sabotaged it! Especially that suave French guy... I forgot his name.

Ok i checked the m79 out on hw t&l on and i do not see any problems with the distance lods, it does not turn white, but it might because i run it on 640x480, but i am also usin a geforce 3 card to play the game.

Glad u's guys like it

Here is a snapshot:

This is at long range (through binocs)...1024 X 768 32-bit, HWT&L off...like I said not a big deal, I really like the addon, but I thought you should know.

I also think this makes an excellent Resistance weapon, slightly outdated hardware...

Thanks Major Fubar, i will look in to it, i had anothe try with viewing the white m79, i tryed it on the desert last time didn't see it, but i tried it on everon, i didn't see the white m79 through binocs, but i did notice that from a long distance i can see it switch from the m79 to the white m79, i will get on to fixing this as soon as i can
