mapping error; loadtga

knifepoint · Post by **knifepoint** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 3:04 am

I presume this is a problem with a texture, but i have no custom textures or anything. the problem is when i try to load a map im making in mohaa i get an error and kicked to the main menu

error: loadtga: only type 2 (rgb), 3 (gray), and 10 (rgb) tga images suported.

does anyone have an idea of what could be causing this?

I had this problem a while back. can't remember what caused it though.

You said no custom textures...... any custom pk3 files.... maps or mods, dots etc.. ? .. pull them.

As i have spearhead and breakthrough i added all the textures into one pk3 and placed that in the main folder because some of the textures im using are from the expansion packs but they dont show up in aa. i just looked in my main folder and found a glass texture lol. thats the only one i have downloaded though. mods i have are ckr realism mod and admin pro

There are a handful of stock textures that cause this error. It should say which texture is causing the problem (look further up in the console).

it says cant find textures/interior/sp_townhall_carpet.tga

usually if it cant find a texture doesnt it just not load any texture? you see the yellow or some other colour lines

I know that happens when you use the SH SDK to make a map and then try and load it up in AA.

Did you try and run the game cd again, and when it asks to install there should be an option for repair or something like that. Perhaps the missing texture will show up.

I'm sure you don't need to place all pk3's together. You just need to set the Radiant's project settings to "/maintt", which is Breakthrough, then you will have everything else. Also, do you have the Spearhead SDK?

If you are using the expansions then you won't be able to play in regular AA, you need to play it in Breakthrough.
