[Help] Undergrowth problems

Post by StyrmanKarlsson »

My Undergrowth are black and they fade out way to close.

I set viewdistance to 85 and still my Undergrowth fade away in very close range until they are gone.

what do I need to edit to fix it?

Looks like **** right now.
I did not have this promblem in bfv editor, sorry.
Any good tutorial somewhere.

when I get the undergrowth looking good I will post some screens on the map Im working on.

try ajusting the lighting scale and the view distance in the general (that is, not specificaly for each material, but in the general settings above it) settings for undergrowth;
if it doesn't work, try adjusting the terraincolorscale for each material

if you aint done your lightmaps i think that your grass will be black on low settings.

also undergrowth in BF2 "should" be a dertive thing, should not go over 30m draw distance or it will have a very big effect on the fps of the player.

ye, same for me when i was doing OGT. What you do is press the "resume previous" button and it will not re-render the lightmaps that are allready done ;)
