Changing Ceiling Texture

[CrazyWolfSoul]

I'm a little lost on this and I couldn't find an already made thread, can anyone help me? There is this rock texture I want to put as the ceiling on one of my custom maps, and it doesn't work to just type in the name. I've made sure the capitalization is correct and I've also tried it both with and without .jpg on the end if thats the problem. I'm thinking I might have to make an actual .material file because it calls it Ceiling Material instead of Ceiling Texture or whatnot, but I have no idea how to do that if thats the case either. The texture is download, so its not from the original game. It works fine everywhere else though.
Does anyone know what to do?

Nyah~ You'll need a material file. You can do this by opening up notepad and typing '.material' at the end of it.
It should look something like this in the end-


material <insertmaterialnamehere> (This is what you type in the box)
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         texture_unit
         {
            texture <insertnamehere>.jpg
         }
      }
   }
}

Thank you so much ^^

I just have one last question if you're up to it, if not I'm sure I can figure it out myself. Do you put this new .material file in textures or somewhere in terrains?

[SoulRevenge]

You can put it where ever you want, Feralheart will be able to recongnize it anywhere.

Oh, that's convenient. Thanks again for all your help.

Your welcome, also, random note, xDD.

If you put your map up for download, remember to include your texture's '.jpg' file and '.material' file in the download too! x3

Be careful not to necro threads there and make your own help thread so that way floofs can help you more easily / quicker c;

As for a possible solution , make sure that everything ( the name, file type , the works ) matches with the file.

Please don't bump up old threads, Korra. If you need help, it's best you make your own thread ^^
