I think I have found 2 problems with patch 4, but I may be wrong. Maybe these commands have changed and I'm just unaware of it. I have also lost about 10-15 FPS with my project, but I'm not too concerned about it. My main problems are listed below.

PROBLEMS:
1) "Lock Object On" is now locking the object to all the cameras being used. I am currently using 2 cameras, the 2nd is for a rear view. The object is now appearing in the 2nd camera, and it previously worked fine. The code I'm using for the object is below. I've modified it several ways, and I can't correct it.

CODE:
CockpitObj = 5 : Load Object "Objects\WindShield\WindShield.x", CockpitObj
SET OBJECT LIGHT CockpitObj, 0
Ghost Object On CockpitObj
Scale Object CockpitObj, 102, 100, 0
Set Object Cull CockpitObj, 1
Lock Object On CockpitObj
Position Object CockpitObj, -0.4, -7.85, 20.5


2) "SET OBJECT TO CAMERA ORIENTATION Object Number" and
"SET OBJECT TO OBJECT ORIENTATION Object Number, Second Object"
is not rotating the object to the ORIENTATION of the main camera or object. I've tried it with both of the commands above and neither work. The code I'm using is below.

CODE:
SET OBJECT TO OBJECT ORIENTATION ViewObj, ShipColObj


If anyone has any insight as to why this is happening or how to correct it, I would sure appreciate. As of now my project is unusable unless I revert back to patch 3.1.

Sounds like a file is missing - reapply the patch.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...
