Hello everyone.

I have had a problem with my map Operation Archer for about a week now and I would really appreciate some help in fixing the map before I delete and lose the time put into it already.

The problem is that the textures do not show up in the game causing a *clear, *invisible, *transparent terrain in-game while the editor shows the terrain as normal. Has anyone have constructive advice or suggestions?

I have tried the following from the BF2 Editor forums:

made sure

1. my envmap is above ground
2. deleted and repainted Colour, detail, low detail maps,
3. re-painted a layer and resaved,
4. re-tpainted,
5. re-adjusted terrain height and resaved,
6. changed object and re-saved
7. made sure that envmaps were unchecked

in the layers


Has anyone experienced this? Found a solution?....please help... This map is a huge favourite since the rebuild and hopefully we can resuscitate it from DOOOOMM!..


Thanks

Are you by any chance playing your map while you have the editor open? Because I had something similar happen where I had the editor open while I loaded the map and my terrain was clear.

You probably dont have it open but its worth a shot asking =D

hummm. what size of map is it? scale 2 or scale 4?

1024x2
nope, the game is closed while the editor program is running...

do other systems with other GFx cards have the same prob?

hmmmmm... good question. I never thought about something down those lines...

No, I havent, I suppose I could try it on someones elses PC. But it had always worked before and I havent changed my Video card (Nvidia 7800gt)

Are you running in debug mode or windowed mode? Because windowed mode causes that for me.

Nope... BUt I will do it again to confirm...

Looks awesome. Especially loving the terrain color, and the sweet velvet look. Candyyyyyyy.

I "might" try doing as suggested and "maybe" if it works, take up mapping again.

Im really loving that invisible pistol
