describing the texture would be helpfull..

is it bright yellow crosshatch? That is what missing textures look like.

empty your mohaa main folder of custom maps if you havent yet, otherwise you might use non stock textures

medal of honor reads its pak files and pk3's that you add in exactly the same way, so does radiant. Anything in your main folder that has a directory structure of:

textures/
scripts/(nameofscript)


will show up as a texture in radiant (listed in a group on the textures menu as (name of script).

If you have custom maps, chances are a few of them have custom textures. You can avoid using those textures by using the list carefully, but if you search(which I do 90% of the time for stock textures) you will not necessarily know waht is a custom texture and what isnt.

If you give a map with a texture you have not defined as custom, to a person who does not have the map that it came from as well, they will see neon crap instead of a texture.


----anyway, this probably isnt your problem unless you removed pk3's between mapping and testing. Still, its good to clear your folder of other peoples custom work, unless you are VERY carefull what textures you use.


-edit-

oh and as to how.... just remove any custom maps pk3's you may ahve put in your moh/main folder

also you could remove the poll, it's uneeded

Also if you use a SH texture and play it in AA you'll have problems.

As for cleanup try mohaacleaner [url]http://www.lost-trenches.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=52[u[/url] , once set up, it will automatcally take out the custom pk3s and put them into a backup file. Then you hit restore and they're all put back in your main, just remember to run it before mapping :P

P.S. it may not catch every single pk3 so it helps to check manually

I have yet to see the value in using those tyep of things. At least for me they are useless, as it would take less time to do it manually then trying to set it up, get it working, and figure it out...

it's useful for such a time when clans who use the most idiotic program Reverand which checks your folder for anything interesting or looking like a cheat and wont let you play if you do. in other words, i need to screw my whole main folder every time i go to a match wit hmy clan, this is heaven here if this works.
