Help me with rocks!

Post by RogerN »

Greetings,

I've run into trouble using the rock features from LathanStanley's feature pack. The rocks are appearing in my map, and are functional (reclaimable), but they appear totally black instead of textured.

I can't figure out what the problem is, because I'm also using a few other features which are working fine. Cactus, palm tree, etc... are working. But the rocks are black.

Any ideas what the problem might be? I can see the textures inside the .sd7, and Spring isn't complaining about missing files.

I have solved the problem... though I'm not sure why.

I overwrote the GreyRock*.s3o and GreyRock*.tga files with different versions (extracted from the map Tangerine). Now it's working. I guess there are multiple versions of the rocks floating around out there?

possibly, maybe I need to check the datafiles on the pack you d-loaded, the files off the forum pack may be outdated, but the files off the featuretestmap are good to go...

if you do that lathan notice that on the dds for the easter island head no 6 (eistature6) you're missing a "=" between damage and 500 that causes a non fatal error when used if not changed. it appears as "damage500" instead of damage=500". I really like the easter heads by the way...
