after Nightmare...

[ceriux]

after getting Nightmare thornlands the textures are kinda screwy, i know why but isnt there ne way around this?

 

[Thothie]

Never had this issue... Got a screenie?

Could be an issue with matching texture names, but seems there shouldn't be. (Should re-load textures on map load, as the other maps point at different wads)

Next nightmare map I figure I'll do via recompile instead of ripent - it's not all that much more work I suppose, for those which I have the full source.

 

[ceriux]

that is the problem, its because they share the same name. iv seen the problem a couple times before.

 

[ITS'aME'aMARIO!!!!]

hmmm... well i've loaded edana one time and it had snow everywhere like nightmare thornlands... and nightmare thornlands has loaded with reg thorns textures a few times too...

 

[Thothie]

Wonder why it refuses to do this on mine... ATI or Nvidia?

Sadly, just a curious, as if that is the case, there's nothing I can think to do about it. Can't change texture names from Ripent. Could do it via recompile, but it'd mean distro'ing a new map. (ie. "Your map doesn't match the server's" errors galore)

 

[ceriux]

ATI

 

[The Man In Black]

NVIDIA. It does it for mine to, I've just learned to ignore it as I thought it was known >_>

 

[Thothie]

Never assume I know anything. The one thing I know, is that I know nothing.... That, and all generalizations are false.

[PBarnum]

HAHAHAHA thats awesome

 

[ceriux]

OMG IT SNOWED IN EDANA!!!!

 

[Thothie]

It's not that I dun believe you, tis just I canna do much of anything about it.

i know, but u asked for a pic earlyier so i figured id give u one.

I have this problem occasionally. It happens when you play one version of thornlands and then the other. The textures from the other one are carried over to the one you play. Leads to a strange climate crash (snowy mountainous walls and green, green grass).

 

[FuzzyFish]

It looks like you still have the bloom mod on. Did you try removing it?

 

[ceriux]

no, i love bloom mod, but other users are having it too... so im guessing its not the bloom mod.

 

[evilsquirrel]

its not the bloom mod, both me and Mib get this bug when transfering from thornlands -> nightmare thornlands, edana -> nightmare thornlands, and vice versa.

 

[Roghan]

Im getting it too

It can easily be fixed, its just a matter of renaming the nightmare thornlands wad textures to something else eg: "*name*_nm"

Whats happening is the textures from the first map version thats loaded are being put into the cache, and are being used on the other map, as they have the same names. As far as the PC is aware, "rock" is the same texture on each map, because they have the same names.

Rename the nightmare texture version, recompile and it will disapear

 

[The Man In Black]

Yes, that's what Squirrel was saying. Problem is, I don't think we have the thornland's source, so renaming the wads won't do any good because n_t will still be looking for 'blah' and not 'nightmare_blah'

 

[ceriux]

the source for thornlands could be really easy to get... decompile it...

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

If you decompile a map you get so many errors and missing brushes it's not even funny anymore.

 

[Gaz]

Doesn't Thothie have it from Ewok?

 

[The Man In Black]

Decompile doesn't work for other reasons, as well. It takes each face and turns it into a separate brush, so if you were to recompile and run it, it would lag you so hardcore that....MS:S would be done before you could move a foot. OH!

 

[PBarnum]

decompile the map for the source and DIE!!

thats typically what happens
