• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

It looks like an effect error where one of the parameters is out. Have you installed anything new?

Now is the time to be the bearer of bad news, if you know which effects you ported over, remove them and then put them back in one by one, restarting the sim each time until you find the culprit.

when you find the offending effect, you copy it to your desktop, rename the .fx to .txt so that you can open it in Notepad. then you can look though the file to find the lines with those numbers.

All you have to do is transpose the numbers so that the lowest number is to the right i.e. -9, -8, -7....0...7, 8, 9 e.c.t., save it , then rename the file back to .fx

@ bruce448, just a suggestion, much simpler to use the "Open with" option and set Notepad as the default program for .fx files.
Useful for .cfg files in this context too.

Nick
