Terrain not working
« on: November 03, 2012, 08:12:10 pm »
I have a seamless picture that I opened in GIMP that i'm trying to make a terrain texture. It's 512x512, RGB, and JPEG but when i save it to terrains/textures and go into map maker it doesn't show up on the list. Anyone know why?


You are amazing <3

It should be 513 x 513, and a 'PNG' file.
Also, when you name it it should be 'BlablablaTerrain.png'. c:

Hm, perhaps we could see the texture? And actually, terrain textures should be perfect squares, I believe... 8x8, 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, 128x128, 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, etc. At least it's what I've seen. owo

I found the thing i needed but ma ask another questions (cuz im allowed ;) ) But i tried to retexture the fluorite crystal but everytime i went to object maker to try out the new material it didnt work. It said mesh not found. It was just going to make it so i could have a red crystal as well as the fluorite crystal.

if the mesh isn't being found, then this means you're not typing it in correctly?

are you manually loading up the mesh?

or are you loading up the fluorite crystal and then retexturing it?

This is an issue I have too Bloo.

I just use the default terrain, and everything works for some reason.
