Custom Texture Suffix problem

Hi,

I have spend some time making the custom textures for statics and have added my own custom suffix to my init.com (aul)


For example.


roadsigns_pr_aul.dds

and added aul to the suffix name in my init.con

- The map is built and working
- I textures are in objects_client.zip in the correct folders

Why do the textures not load?
Have I saved them the wrong format or am I missing something further?

Any advice is very welcome.

TIA

Did you make a clientarchives.con file? ( See other maps for examples)

Yes I have, I am esepecially baffled.

You know when you spend hours looking for mistakes but just cant put your finger on it...

I have the custom textures working in the editor and navmesh's no problem.

I will take a closer look at it all and report back, thanks for your advice sir.

The main algorythm: start from 100% working state.
I.e., put you custom texture near the stock one, and check if it works.
If it is not, so the problem is in the suffix itself.
If it works - so the problem is within your custom archives (path, con files, etc).

I have the issue fixed now thanks guys.

I regenerated mipmaps and set the format to DXT1 and then to DXT5 inpolated aplha and it seems to have worked.
