3D Model Issues
Maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't want to clog up good threads with problems and issues when we have the luxury of a separate place to discuss.
I've been fighting 3D on many fronts, the most recent of which is the black space where crowds are supposed to be visible. I've read the suggestions in the other threads, I've made several attempts with various settings. If there are specific settings proven to work, especially for folks using a laptop of a less than recent age, maybe you could post a pic of them here for me. I'll attach a pic of my directory tree. You'll notice there are no nested folders within a folder problem. Also, after a few attempts changing settings, I'll get a preview screen and the rest of my screen will go entirely white, forcing me to use Task Manager to close the program. I'll post a pic of that, too. And finally, what's prompting this thread- and maybe I remain alone with this problem -I'll post a pic of the preview screen I see when selecting a park, showing the black areas where crowds normally would be. I hope there's something I'm blatantly missing or there's an easy solution. I'm not optimistic, but then I seldom am. Before I post the pics, I'll offer a brief summary of my attempted avenues, and some may have variations I have yet to try, but this is the overview:
Thanks in advance for any assistance. Failing resolution this weekend, I'll also post this in the beta bug tracker in the hopes Andreas or Jorin see something I don't. I don't mean to appear a whiner, I'm just out of options and ideas.

Check this thread out. Other people are having some problems, too. Maybe try what they tried. And this doesn't have to do with Silvam's or Adion's parks. It's about 3 factory direct parks that come with OOTP18. Anyway, don't give up. If you have a bit older laptop, maybe your graphics need upgrading. Don't know how to do that on a laptop. Good luck. I'm out of ideas. Hope you find an answer. Last edited by zappa1; 04-30-2017 at 11:32 AM. |

I downloaded the parks from the last link you provided. The one to which I replied, That one works! I'd previously emptied the directory to avoid any overwrites.

Well, I tried the uninstall/reinstall through Steam. I may have to uninstall completely somehow or try the standalone and see what happens. Loaded silvams after a fiasco of maneuvers, but there's just black areas for crowds on those, too. Tried about every setting imaginable. Went through 17's ballpark folder to compare directories and files, and one strange thing is among silvam's parks, there's one with a background. So, no crowds at all, simplifed or not. Losing my mind. Been there, done that, never recovered. Part of my problem, I suppose. Last year it was getting facegen to run, this year this. Overcame last year. Hope to this year. I guess I'll stop being a bother for now, other than posting what I have to evaluate for those who can in a few pics next. Then, I don't know. I don't think I can go back to 2D. I'll keep plugging until I'm forced to surrender. If that's the case, then guess it'll be a long wait for v19 and maybe a lottery win for a new laptop, just in case that's the culprit. I can imagine it is though. v17 still seems to do just fine.
Anyway, getting tired of seeing my laments here, just as you probably are, too. The pics, then the last of me for awhile. Thanks all who have been so kind.

Keep posting. No one, with the possible exception of Spritze, is more entertaining to read. Seriously, I hope someone notices some clue that leads to solving your problem.

Well, I'll do one better. Look what happened when I installed the stand-alone game, loaded my game, same settings, and loaded a park: (now I'm going to see how far I can push the settings, and probably screw something up, but say what??? Crowds??) The stand alone is build 45, steam is 47. Related? I dunno. Shouldn't be.

Every time I take a screen shot of a 3d model the field portion on the screen is black. I'm having a problem with 2 ballparks so far.
In the fenway 70-87 folder, 1970obj file, the grid is to the right of home plate so, in game, all the pawns are off to the right. The outfielders are standing inside the outfield wall. Exposition park is a joke. Your view is from the 1st base side and the grid starts behind the shortstop and extends out through left field. How do you fix the grids? |
