4.87 Model Issues

[Vigilia.Procuratio]

Most bigship_shield_*m.3db files seem to be missing from the installation, except the 100 and 1200. This is a guess, but what is for sure is that ships with large shields are generally not displaying the shield health bar in space. In single-player this results in instant hull damage against affected ships, but no such damage is noticed on the server. I'm not sure what happens on the server, either the shield and hull are depleted as normal but it is unnoticeable to myself or there is actually no damage being inflicted at all (essentially making the affected craft invulnerable). I'm pretty sure that another player blew up a transport right next to me and yet it was still there (I heard an explosion, loot appeared but the transport was still sitting there afterwards, completely intact). I don't understand how this has not been picked up by the anti-cheat system as it obviously a potential problem. Reinstalling the game and downloading the mod afresh has not solved this problem.
