I've always had fairly good luck getting results by searching for the word "default", then sorting out what the file name of the .TGA associated with it would be, based on that. Unfortunately, doing that for each ship and station (especially when some use the same .TGAs in different spots) could take a very long time....

Was there a specific station you had in mind?

:cool:

I usually just watch on the admirals log picture (if present) what the textures look like and then try to find the matching texture. But my picture viewer has expired, and I am looking ever since for a (free!) replacement.
However to answer your question: I have my eye on 2 ships and 3 stations:
FedconstA
Fedfreighter
Fedturret4
Fedyard3
Fedyard7
Only the names of the textures suffice. I am hesitant to copy the entire Textures folder to my A2, as it is unneccessary and it may conflict with my current or future modifications. But if that is the only alternative, so be it.
Thnx :)

Here's what I have in the original planning folders. Hope these are correct.

FedconstA: MAPfconst1-4
Fedfreighter: transport
Fedturret4: fftrt and fftrtbump
Fedyard3: fyard01
Fedyard7: MAPnsd01-3

:cool:

As a matter of fact, I installed Irfanview just 5 days ago :p
My only problem with that one is that it shows Fed textures very dark. Never had that problem with Nero picture viewer (lost my copy...)

Hi I'm back again I just downloaded the 1.1a version of this mod. I followed the instructions to the letter. When I go to start an instant action game and play as the Federation, it loads all the way but when I try to build something be it a habitat station or a shipyard the game crashes please help.

BTW even if I wait a while it eventually crashes on its own without any real action other than just clicking and selecting the starbase

It could be the sounds from the mod. Or possibly a missing .ODF somewhere. Either way, I'd double-check the install.

Also, you've installed this on what version of A2? 1.1 or 1.2.5?

:cool:

Re: Federation Compilation Mod Error Reporting Thread
 
1.1 I believe, is 1.2.5 an official or unofficial patch?

Unofficial, released by the FleetOps team.
