@Devastation:
I strongly recomend to delete the old entries every time you modify HUDs and you should use FLMM.
I cannot help but posting my entry files that you could compare with your HUD file list:
hud_guagewindow.cmp
hud_maneuverbox1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.cmp
hud_nnbox4,5,6,7.cmp
hud_numberboxes.cmp
hud_shipinfo.cmp
hud_shipinfo_min.cmp
hud_target.cmp
hud_target_min.cmp

I don't know what sort of program you use for recoloring the textures but several files -posted above- have images with alpha layer so recoloring isn't enough but separating the ACs otherwise you gonna get messy result.

Hope it helps.

I do remember there is a pdf document around what contains the whole HUD recoloring tutorial but i don't find right now.
There is a human here name is cheeseontoast who uploaded that tutorial, send him a pm because I'm sure he can help you out.

@Jeider:

Just make it clear: You want to make a smaller nebula placed in a bigger nebula where's the "old exclusion" zone cut the bigger nebula to make room for the smaller nebula?
If it is, then an exclusion zone is valid for an object you assigned to. Another words, if you define the exclusion zone for the default nebule only that wouldn't have any effect on the new one.

No, it can be anything. I use different primitives like box, cyl, sphere in nebulas and they just work fine.

@Devastation:
Did you add the new exlcusion zone to the proper nebula (Li01_Badlands_Nebula.ini)?

@Jolly_Roger:



That's too big imho. I've got 2 different convex tool:
- v1---> 45056 bytes
-v1.1 ---> 53248 bytes

I don't know what kind of convex tool you use but I suggest to try the versions posted above I belive they can be found at the download section.
Anyway, Skotty is right, sometimes this error caused by the program itself and there is no solid way to fix it. You might try excluding each surs from the first to the last and find that one which is responsible for the trouble. It's gonna take several hours though.
But it's really weird, I had same problem when I used ms.sur exporter. Since I started to use otsc I haven't had this issue.

When you say it doesn't work with this sur, what does that mean:
You don't get convex surs, got error message in ms, ctd in game or what?
What version of convex tool do you use?

@Jolly_Roger:

Did you use "smoothing groups" --> select 1/assign after deleting the non-convex ie: original sur parts?

I picked on something:
addon = infinite_power, internal, 1 ---> that's invalid in goods.ini

You have to use a valid power generator, like:

addon = li_elite_power01, internal, 1
addon = li_fighter_power01, internal, 1
.
.
.
and so on
