[Help!] Lightmap and Roads problem

Post by **Outlawz7** » 2007-09-17 09:03

I generated my lightmaps and this is how the grass looks

I basically have no idea, wth I messed up in the Lightmap options, so if anyone can enlighten me, which options to use to render proper lightmaps, I'd be grateful

Also, roads never render further than like 20-30m, anyone know the solution to this?

ehhh what texture are u using for your grass?

and to fix your roads, go into the terrain editor and save the following:

Ironic, eh

And save only the Terrain option or all of them ticked off (in your pic)?

try a diffrent textuer and also try relightmapping your terrain under diffrent settings, it dont look lightmapped...

And save only the Terrain option or all of them ticked off (in your pic)

Ohh, the famous psychedelic hippie grass!

I have had this several times.

It happens when the colormaps gets distorted (like when you change groundsettings etc) and somehow information about the color is lost towards the undergrowth.
But dont worry, it is an easy fix.
Choose terrain and the texture palette. In this pallete there is a button which says colormap. Press this , and resave your map. The colormap is now fixed again and the undergrowth gets the right info. Then resave undergrowth to be sure.
