Regression: black infantry returned in Beta 14 (fixed in Beta 12)

[isfg496-a11y]

ЬacOS 26.5.2, Apple Silicon M4, 26.5.2 Tahoe, Zero Hour (Steam assets).
Infantry and vehicles (With infantry models) render as black silhouettes again on Beta 14. Hero units and snipers render #correctly, buildings are fine, cutscenes are fine. Downgrading to Beta 12 fixes it infantry render normally there. Looks like a regression of #166 / #169. ( Sorry i forgot to get a picture of a vehicle )

Are you running any specific version of game? I have tested both beta 12 and 15 (latest) under my steam installation and all texture working fine.

I Just dowloaded the first link i got for GZH ( which was beta 14) and this happened, and i don't know how to replicate it. And i have the game installed on steam, though it maybe has to do something with that i have it installed in a windows bottle from porting kit ( because i thought i could play the game in the that bottle )

The Porting Kit installation may be relevant if the native GeneralsX app is being launched from, or mixed with, the Windows bottle rather than only reading its retail asset files.

Could you please retest with Beta 18 using the native macOS GeneralsX application, with the Steam/Porting Kit directory used only as the asset source? In particular, avoid launching the Windows executable or loading bottle-provided d3d8.dll/d3d9.dll wrappers.

If the silhouettes still occur on Beta 18, please include:

• A screenshot from the native Beta 18 build.
• Whether shadows are enabled.
• The exact asset path being used.
• ~/Library/Application Support/GeneralsX/GeneralsZH/ReleaseCrashInfo.txt, if present.

That will distinguish the old Beta 14 regression from an asset or compatibility-layer interaction.
