Abbs pack 5 problems

gamma

hi :-)

I've just downloaded the abbs pack V5, I unzipped it and puttet it in a folder i named: ''Abbs pack.box'' and putted it in the addons folder, and the ''AbbsPack.pk3'' in the ''doomsday fronted\addons'' folder and started Dengine. I checked them both and started the game, if i don't have any other addons turned on i just use the same old boring weps. i really want to use the abbspack, i've searched for it for months and now i finally found it... please help me fix my problem.

Have you tried adding it without even putting it in a .box? .Box files are not necessary, and why make one for a single addon, when they're intended to be a package of multiple addons?

gamma

it's not a .box file, it's just a folder i named __________.box. I also have tried to put them all in the addon folder without a folder...

Also anything other than the hud works; the sound works great, the explousion on the wall is super and the projectiles are fantastic, but the hud... boring...

What I mean to ask is, have you just tried putting the .PK3 into the Addons folder as it is, and then just enabling it in Snowberry?

gamma

sorry, but i'm already enabling it in snowberry, and it doesn't help. iv'e just tried to put it into the abbspack folder and it doesn't change anything

Are you running Doomsday 1.9.0-beta6.x? If so, it is possible that this addon is affected by this issue, which would explain why everything else works but not the HUD models (if the addon uses that VFS feature).

gamma

yes, i am using Dday 6.6. Will the issue be fixed in beta 7?

DaniJ

No this issue is not addressed in 1.9.0-beta6.7 as it was discovered too late to do anything about it. I'll try to look into it for the next release.

gamma

yay, thanks. i relly look forward to the next release.
