Getting red lines in-game: what the hell is causing this..?

You could check what the entities are doing. But as this seems more like a graphical bug I fairly doubt those entities are causing this. Did you check the whole console output for warnings etc?

 

I fairly remember that I have encountered such an issue myself. But this must be several years ago and I can't remember what I've done back there. My best bet would be to delete the proc and cm files and redmap. Maybe that helps.

I've seen this before, I think it has to do with a weird transform/ scale on a object with bones. Maybe a rope or something you've scaled by mistake? It might also happen when the origin is off on that object.

Yeah thats the first thing I thought off, but I checked all the entites with lines going to them and no scalling, so I have to go back through my snapshots (thank god for them...) to find the closest to the latest version that dosent show the lines.

Just an off the cuff thought here, had you tried noclipping to see if these lines converge on any given point? If it's consistent, it could be used kinda like a point file to localize the problematic entity.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
