[Help] Undergrowth won't show in editor or ingame

[Spyker2041]

Hey guys, got a problem. I am finishing a map off for someone, they have set up their UG and it is painted on the map as you can see but the UG won't show up in the editor or ingame.



Here is his undergrowth.cfg

This happend to me before. It was because there the undergrowthatlas.tai and undergrowthatlas0.dds files were missing. These files control the texture of the undergrowth.

Im not sure what I did to fix it, but try making a small change to the undergrowth by painting something like 1 square and making a small change to one of the density values and then save.

[dunem666]

copy undergrowthatlas from a different map, re open in editor, replace small fraction of your UG and resave. The TAI files are missing.

your random size scale needs to be set at 1 or more especially with the materials your using, they will simply not show up or be much too small.

set x and y to 1 and try again. regenerate.

here is example of some UG i have made that works.
