Cant find spaceships amd geomorphs for Cosmographer

Gary

I'm having a problem located the spaceship symbols, buildings, and geomorphs for my cosmographer 3. Can anyone help me figure out the correct path to reach them? I've seen the spaceships and buildings before so I know they are loaded. I've never seen the geomorphs.

Still looking for some help with this issue.

Click the Open button above the catalog window and navigate to Symbols/Cosmographer/ in your CC3 program directory. From there you can find all the Cosmo 3 catalogs. COS Bitmap A has all the bitmap deckplan symbols for example. Geomorphs are only available among the Vector symbols in the "Deckplan" directory.

I followed you path Ralph, but I saw no signs of spaceships. I know the spaceships are loaded with the program because I occasionally run into them as I poke around. I just can't figure out how to add them to my maps like all of the other symbols. I can't find the file which opens up all the spaceship variations.

Are you sure that you don't confuse spaceships build using the parts in Cosmographer\COS Bitmap A\CosA_All.fsc with ready-made spaceship symbols? Some of the weapons also look rather like individual spaceships. I admit I haven't used Cosmographer for deckplans yet so I might be missing something, but I haven't found individual ships either. Also wondering where COS Bitmap B is. Or was the A just in case some future goodness happens to bring us B?

I've seen the spaceships before, I have one on a map. I managed to stumble across it but for some reason its nearly impossible to locate.

Couildn't find them at first...

Cosmographer/Cosmos/Spaceships.fsc

Note that while I've has Cosmo for years, I barely used it until a few months ago.

I find the path of Cosmographer/Cosmos/Spaceships.fsc, the problem is almost every time I open Cosmos there are no files to select from. Its a blank white box. A couple of the other choices for Cosmographer (such as Cos Vector and Deck Plan) also show a blank white box.

Once in a blue moon the files appear under Cosmos and then I am able to open up Spaceships.fsc but why won't it do it most of the time?

Strange, I found and opened them without any problems when following JimP's description. I do seem a remember a "No Symbols in this Catalogue" error for one of the Cosmographer symbol catalogues, though.

Sounds like a corrupted fsc file. I suggest contacting tech support.
