Title: Fluffy Mane Texture Broken On Presets
Post by: Sincerest on August 28, 2024, 01:32:07 am
I need some help figuring out how to fix this. I checked a few other older posts with fixes, but when applying another set of code beneath the base mane coding in the .material file all it does it break every mane in the game for me.

Removing the extra code, this is what shows up for me for the fluffy mane when trying to make the preset mane texture work... any thoughts? (I don't know how to resize images, sorry!)  :-\

Can you share your material code for the mane? (I can't help you fix it without knowing what the code is)

Try this code where the mane code section is!

Quote
material preset_11_maneMat
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         ambient 2.0 2.0 2.0
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         scene_blend alpha_blend
         alpha_rejection greater_equal 250
         texture_unit
         {
            texture preset_11mane.png
         }
      }
   }
}

Make sure to change the preset_11mane.png to match your preset mane file name. Same as if it's png or jpg.

@Alphabet Yes! Here's what my .mat code looks like for the mane:
@D-ead7Dog I put in the code for the mane, but ended up getting this instead:

      }
   }
}

I have a preset that uses the fluffy mane too, you have to change the "maneMat" part to "maneMat2". This mane's buggy though and if other players download your preset it'll appear as black and yellow, though.  :(

Usually if it's white and blocky it means the file doesn't match up with the name.
I'd try changing it to jpg!

@D-ead7Dog The file name matched what was in the .mat file, I tried changing both to .jpg files just to see and that kept the white blocky mane too.  :-\

@Oddonelynx I tried what you said with adding the 2 after the Mat, and while the mane texture did show up (Finally!!!) the mane is now super blocky and rigid looking. Did this happen to you?

Nope. When I did this however, I used the default Manemat2 texture from the texture folder. This mane is special and it only works with transparency, so the texture for it will have to be a PNG or at least some other format that supports transparency.
