Waterfalls are brown+ characters don't display correctly
« on: February 11, 2015, 06:49:41 pm »
All the waterfalls in my game, both in default and downloaded maps are brown. I checked the material file and made sure I had the correct texture and I do, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I don't see how this could be affecting the waterfalls in my downloaded maps because they all have their own material files and textures. All bodies of water work correctly. For whatever reason, the falls look like poop. Does anyone know what's up? Also, for a while now, all in-game characters that do not have presets have been showing up black and white regardless of their colors. I was told to re-install the game, but that didn't fix the problem.

Seems to me you got your waterfall texture messed up. May I suggest re-downloading the game again but delete the FH folder completely? This will completely delete the game from your computer allowing a new version to take it's place.

Hope this helps ya bby <3

Sorry to hear about your bizarre texture issue, ~Lenore-Lucian. Definitely make sure you are completely deleting the Feralheart file, as started above by Whisperingwaves. If that doesn't work for you, and/or you do not want to reinstall again, take a look at this quote below.
Quote from: AlphaEclipse (edited a bit for your specific problem/glitch.)
Before you reinstall, download this: Feralheart Media Folder (source: [link])

Go into Feralheart\Media\materials and copy all of the material files in there to your Feralheart's material files (located in Feralheart\media\materials) and replace the already-existing ones with those new ones. Also try putting the default fur textures from here: [link] into Feralheart/media/textures and click replace. After that, try replacing the Feralheart markings.cfg file with the one from here: [link] Source above. Replace the markings.cfg file located in C:\Feralheart with that new one.
I'd also recommend maybe changing your game's rendering system by following this tutorial. [link]

That didn't fix anything :\

Either try set your Rendering System to what works best for you or look at the the version of your Graphics Card if it needs an update.

If you don't have one but need one, here is some more information about it that Red explains to someone with a link to download it:

http://feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&lang=en&jfile=index.php&topic=514.0


Despite this quote is about black missing textures, I hope the information can help you out quite a bit for your messed up ones if it works the same way.

It appears that you are missing some files. Check to see if you are missing the highlighted file from LocalDisk(C:)\FeralHeart\Media\Terrains\fhmaps\fhPodium.fhm

Maybe you're missing a few textures? Try looking in your Texture folder by going into LocalDisk(C:)\FeralHeart\Media\Textures. Such as grass textures/other textures to do with that.

Or maybe you need to switch your rendering subsystem by going to Options\Video\Rendering Subsystem and change it to Direct3D9. After that restart FH. If nothing has changed - restart your PC.

Try updating your graphics card also. Go to your start button then right click 'Computer' then select 'Properties'. After you've done so, go to 'Devise manager' >> 'Display adapters' then Double click 'Intel(R) HD Graphics'. You will then come across something that mentions something about updating your graphics card.


Wish you best of luck! If neither of those worked, feel free to ask again and share it!

My game is always set to Direct3D9 and my graphics card is up to date. My computer has processors that are specifically made for game rendering. I think my game just hates me

hmmm.. I don't know what to suggest otherwise. Though, as a last, look at your Colour Depth in top of the row in the white pop-up when starting up the game. Usually it can be 32, which is normal. If not, click higher or lower to the game colours as you prefer. Glitched colours might change with it.

Maybe share a screenshot how it looks like so people have a clearer view on what you experience?

The game also decides when it's going to let me see that pop-up, which is rarely. I usually just get the black command box when starting up the game. I took a couple screenshots. It seems the browns/blacks show up fine, but unnatural colors don't work.

LMFAO can i see a screenshot of the poopfalls? sorry im immature

Are you sure that the textureless players don't have a marking pack that you don't have and it's just your game acting up? Just making sure.

I don't think THAT many people would have marking packs. It's a good 95% of everyone and like I said, it's only unnatural colors, excluding red that don't display
