Old .opt model - O/S issue?
Posted: Sun Dec 29, 2019 7:28 pm
Have a weird situation. Working on an existing .opt model. When I save it after editing, and test it in Skirmish mode, the "old model" still shows up. Even if I delete the model in \Flightmodels folder and go back into skirmish mode, the old model still manifests in-game. It's not write/read-only protected. It's almost a like an invisible ghost shadow copy exists of the model, but I can't figure out where/why the game engine is still using it. This also happens sometimes with .tie mission files.
However, if I rename the edited file to Model2.opt and same within the Spacecraft0.lst file, then the newest version shows up just fine as it should. This seems like an O/S issue to me, but I'm not clear. Anyone have any ideas ? Windows10 x64. Thanks.
