Ah, so it's not just me! I noticed this a while back too. I've only seen it once though, and restarting the game corrected the problem.

The problem isn't that it's invisible, is that all the polygon normals in the game become flipped, for some reason  :NOTSURE:.

Do you know if there was a battle at this planet? 

There is an option "Show Orbiting Ship In Planet In Normal and Quick Battles" that is on by default.

When this option is on, the planet will become invisble when the planet is attacked so you can see the orbiting ship inside of it.  It looks like it got stuck on "invisible" mode.

Does this happen often?  Is it reproducible?  If it reproduces, please let us know steps to reproduce it.  Then try unchecking the option mentioned above and repeat the steps.  See if happens again.  Let us know what happens.

Thanks.

Hey CC, like danielost, i've only seen this once, and it cleared after restarting the game. There was no battle (i'm familier with that effect), for me it happened after i created a game, went to the main menu, and started a new one with e different race (this is not reproducible). All of the polygon normals in the game were flipped, not just the planets, all the ships, stars, planets, etc... And they were all "stuck" that way, even when starting new games. However, as i said restarting the game corrected the issue. I did make a savegame to try and 'save' the problem, but upon loading the savegame, there was no problem. *shrugs*

daniellost, did you experience a problem like LogicSequence, where the ship normals look reversed?

I'm unable to tell from the screenshot what the ships look like.  If it happens again, please look at the ships as well and try to get a screen shot with them.

Also, could you both please post your debug.err files, so I can look at your system configurations?

Thank you.

Kay, this may sound tricky to some... but the above "flaw" is exactly the kinda thing i'm working on for the CoSH mod; one of the races is the Fantastic Four and, as some of you may know, there's a charater named the Invisible woman!

Well, if i can figure a workaround format for her planet.png file... she will have an almost INVISIBLE planet under her feet as homeworld too. Along with a Rocky one and a flaming hell & a polymorphic sphere -- to symbolize each planets of the system for F4.
:)

So bring 'hem on explanations or techno hints about this error... cuz, i'd be interested to compare notes.

If you want an invisible planet just make a PNG texture and leave it transparent, then use it as the planet texture.
Reply #12 from GalCiv2 Forums Top
Yes, that'd do it. I was thinking more about "semi-transparent" or slightly snugged to hover in space in an odd fashion. Thing is, these space bodies - they spin and when "partial images" get to the dark side of the moon, so to speak, the illusion begins to fade or may seem flawed.
Take the TB5 pseudo-moon in X-Worlds as an example; This is exactly where my creative urge went wacky. I needed the vehicle around Earth at the cost of losing the real moon itself. So be it, i said... after all this race IS the Thunderbirds!

Numerous other tricks i've been tackling with lately. The rings truly confuse me. It seems that the 32x32 pic makes use of only the first row of pixels to spread the net, if you like. What i really wanted, at first, was to put (for example) a stream of orbital meteorites or even, a sort of zig-zagging electrical zap... now try making that with only ONE valid row. Sad, but true.

Lots of testing to do in order to realize the exact effects intended, in fact. In APOCALYPSE, the Aliens jump/travel between dimensions using a "sparky-ball-like-tetrahedron-spinner" gate... THAT alone i'd love to find a way to represent directly (animated or faked on stills) in some orbits or otherwise.

Working on a few other things too.

Hey no one knows where Arnor is maybe it's invisible :)
