[Question] Graphic Glitch?

from Sins Forums

So, I recently returned from LoL to play some Sins with E4X mod on.

Screenshot showing not-so-dead ships

Turns out that when I loaded the save file from yesterday on rebellion 1.82, the destroyed ships maintain their small icons and 3D models. I tried to click on them but dead ships are unclickable even though they have icons and 3D model is visible if I zoom in to the max. I don't know if this is because of the mod but I would appreciate any help.

Thank you in advance.

Can't say I've seen this glitch before. I guess try and autosave or something, maybe its just that save file?

You may be right in that it is the save file because I started playing the save file that I made back in early November. Loading autosave does not work because the game still has UN-dead ships.

I will start a brand new game and see what happens. Strangely, this does not happen to pirates and neutral ships that surrounds the un-colonized planets.

This bug happens if explosiondefs is replaced and appropriate linkages to the explosion effects no longer exist.

The ships are dead, but they don't vanish because they don't explode and cause their mesh to disappear. The long distance icons are linked to the mesh's activity state as well.

 

At least this is the behavior I have noticed when I mess with explosiondefs, you may be having a different issue.
