Re: black panther and white
Unpack the models.pck, check the mount/pet structure of the .ecm/.dds of the White Panther. Open the .ecm file in notepad, try editing the MOXTVersion to a compatible version of your exe file. Repack then try it out.

Okay. Now I have some more information to provide on my little problem- when I looked at the MOXTversion's of both panthers, they were different (white -> 45, black -> 21). Then I changed the white one to 21 to match the black, and saw that gave me the same error as what I did prior to this, so I changed back to the original files and repacked again and it was back to "normal", unmoving. (Also noticed there were a few other differences in those files between the two)
Second, today someone gave me this idea, so, I tried only replacing that .ECM file from the white panther, with the one from the black panther's files (instead of just the number itself), and received this error when trying to start my client.
(I did not catch a screen shot of the first errors I received the other day when I tried replacing everything besides the textures -.dds-, and then when I tried only changing the one number inside the file, but I know it said "[Models.pck]" in a different position both of those times, so I know this one i've attached is a totally different error.)
Re: black panther and white
My post got lost off the pages already...
I'm still looking for help with this if anyone's got any info on it-
I've even tried a fresh client to see if maybe the one I updated before was funky from messing with other files.
This is a recap of my problem:
I get similar errors every time I try to fix a inanimate mount (my example being the white panther/jaguar that seems to be a re-skin of the black "windsprint panther" I think it's called), a bunch of gibberish with models.pck in various places within the description of the error. (see my posts before)
I tried what kag0ryu (I hope I got your name correctly spelled, by the way) suggested by looking at the MOXTversion in the ECM files and they were different, i've tried changing the numbers, and the whole file. Neither worked.
If anyone has any input on what I might be missing or lacking in my little situation here, this would be much appreciated. [Even if it is a simple newbie mistake on my part, please point it out?]
Thanks :)
Re: black panther and white
maybe you have an error in packaging .. Boxed model.pck try it with the default mode
Code:
pwpack -c models.pck.files models.pck -r -z 9
sorry if I'm wrong ..
Re: black panther and white
The version of pwpack you're using is outdated and can only produce pck for pw client <1.3.1, if you want to use CN 1.3.6 or higher you need the 2008 version of pwpack at least.
Version should be displayed when you run it, you probably have the 2007 one.
Alternatively you can attempt to hex edit, what changes is the copyright notice in the last 200ish bytes of the pck file.

i'll check on that to make sure which version (don't think i know off the top of my head). if that really is the case, would you (or anyone else) mind advising me where could i find a newer version of pwpack? :blink:
thanks a ton
*********EDIT**********
bingo!
souris, thanks, that was it. (see attached picture)
i'd still like to know where i can find a more recent/up-to-date copy of pwpack however. if you or anyone else has insight on that, would be wonderful. i got my original copy ('07) here on ragezone but haven't seen more recent.
thanks again!!!

Romulans tool pack has 2007 and 2008.
http://forum.ragezone.com/5583811-post5.html
And Romulans second pack and the version I use both have no version so ill guess ill have to open them with a hexeditor to find out.
Edit: the version I use is 2008 and the version in Romulans second tool pack is 2007

- Add the White Egg (27001) to you gshop.data
- After hatching you recieve the White Jaguar Mount (27000)
- It's working perfectly with the ECM/GFX 1.4.2 @ 1.3.6 file pack

as Drakaer (hope i got the spelling correct) said, it's already in the "visad" files... however I plan on working on my own versions in the near future :) i'll probably share when the time comes. my only issue is how to get them -my own mounts and creations, separate to the ones already existant on the server- to link to the server/ appear on it. lol.
Re: black panther and white
How did you wind up manually fixing this ? (I currently have a mount not showing animations that I would like to manually fix)
