Im new at mapping but have read some tuts and can add a lod terrain and items and so on.
I have a map im testing. One version has only the terrain and a skybox and it works fine. Another version of it just has minor changes on the terrain image (i replaced the old one by selecting it and then reloaded the new one), and thats all. The image size and the terrain size are the same. However, this newer version doesnt work properly. Once the map is loaded the loading screen stays there and your hands and mouse cursor leave bad trails on the screen. Lights and sun are set like in the previous version.
So im quite whats causing that. Could it be that the minor changes i made caused too many polys or something like that or what. I have also tried the new version from the very beginning but still the same results.
Yes, i noticed. Thanks for the info. I didnt pay attention at it because the prior version has a leak too and it works ok. And since im new, by leak i mean a small part of the terrain comes out of the caulked box. In the gameplay there are no more errors except you can see black line on that edge. Thats why i thought thats not the issue.
As i mentioned i have tried the new terrain with several times by starting it all over and made sure the whole terrain was in the caulked box. Also these turned out to be not working.
I use dday3 sky as the sky texture. It works ok in other test maps.

I believe its ok. However if i uninstall radient and then reinstall it, it still has old settings on. Also it lost all textures as well. Perhaps i need to uninstall mohaa too?
Getting the basepaths right can be tricky. After installing/unzipping Radiant it loads the 'Default.qe4' file (located in your MohTools- folder). So you need to make sure Radiant starts loading your new project (.qe4) file. Here's what you need to do:
- start Radiant and click OK through the "set basepath" window. Wait till it's loaded and open your map.
- go to "Edit->Preferences" and check the "Load last project on open", "Load last map on open" and also the "qe4 update model" checkboxes, then click OK,
- then go to "File-> New Project" and fill in a name, e.g. "SgtKIA.qe4".
- next go to "File->Project Settings" and fill in the correct paths, click OK,
- close Radiant.
To test the settings start Radiant again:
If for some reason Radiant tries to load the Default.qe4 again, just delete it. When it can't find it, it gives you the option to browse to your own .qe4 file. With the option "Load last project on open" checked your own .qe4-project file will be used the next time to start Radiant.
whats causing that. Could it be that the minor changes i made caused too many polys or something like that or what. I have also tried the new version from the very beginning but still the same results.
trying to uninstall radient and reinstal. Now it cant find any textures.
