This is a long story but i thought I would put as much information as possible so bear with me.

Due to the "single texture/blank" sky issue caused by installing patch 1.14, I am using (as suggested in another thread) a program called 3D Ripper DX to solve it. Which works fine.

I have also installed a large number of community addons to the game, at first I simply placed all the PBO's etc in the normal addon folder with everything else etc. This also works fine.

Until however, I go on Multiplayer. Where I'm confronted by messages saying unsigned addons detected etc etc.
So at first I simply placed all the addons in a differtn folder when i wanted to go on multiplayer which aswell as being really annoying and time consuming, I sometimes removed the wrong thing. __furious.gif

So I then decided to use the method of creating a seperate folder for the addons and changing the Game Shortcut etc. So i would have 2 shortcuts one for singleplayer addons and one for multiplayer. This works fine.

Except the "single texture/blank" sky remains and I can't run the 3D Ripper program with the addons as It wont access the Seperate Addon Folder, it just runs the normal game.

If anyone can suggest anything to get the 3D ripper program to recognise the addons folder so I can use addons in singleplayer aswell as unmodded multiplayer without the "single texture/blank" sky problem I'd be really appreciative. worship.gif


Oh yeah the 3D Ripper program access's the game through the 'exe' file.

I'm currently using 'Nividia GeForce 7300 SE' graphics card, and the reason i think its patch 1.14 is that i dont get the problem if I have an earlier patch i.e 1.08 etc

Also I have reinstalled the game a number of times and this hasnt solved the problem.

Thanks for the reply.
