it's a leak, something's pointing through your skybox. find anything that might intersect any of the skybox brushes and move or delete it.

Fence masks

Post by tltrude »

*** Entity 0, Brush 404, bounds (1264 408 64) - (1272 680 128)
^-- Fence masks must only be used with fence or nodraw.
FloatPlane: bad normal
Entity 0, Brush 974: degenerate plane


These are bad brushes.

Brush 404 is too big, but it also has texture problems. A texture with a"Fence mask" mean it is a see-through texture, and the only other texture allowd on the same brush is common "nodraw" texture.

Brush 974 needs to be deleted and rebuilt.

to find a specific brush, go to edit>find entity / brush and find it. delete or move as necessary.

nodraw is generally used as a universal "invisible wall", MOH has a lot of specific brushes such as hint, clip, and playerclip that play specific roles for nodraw, for other games where there are no hint or playerclip brushes, nodraw is used. but as tltrude pointed out, some textures can only have nodraw on their other faces. so the answer is "yes, but it isn't conventional in MOH."

for cars and tables, i suggest you use metalclip, and woodclip. They act as a default texture for a specific type of material. they're in Common.

Edit > Find Entity / Brush > Brush number [ 404 ] > OK

Edit > Find Entity / Brush > Brush number [ 974 ] > OK

Use [Woodclip] or [Playerclip] texture for your table.

If you are makeing a fence that you want to use to stop players from walking past or thru, make it with the no draw and texture just the visible side with your fence texture. Then place a playerclip (from common menu) just infront of the fence, this will stop the players from moveing past it, but they wont see the playerclip, just your fence. Make sure the player clip is taller than 64 units, as this is how high the players can jump.

This is a good tutorial that explains most of the textures in the common menu. You pretty much have to know how most of them work.

try un-installing allied asault and spearhead. go into windows explorer and delete all mohaa folders. go into the registry and delete anything mohaa related and then re-install your games.

start/run/regedit.......... hit enter........ open ( + ) plus marks til you see software. open ( + ), look for mohaa and related goodies. don't open the first one, but the ones underneath it, but not the last one either. The "hkey" things. .... in the fourth one, under the second "classes"... with all the numbers and letters, open til you hit software in that one also.

after re-installing the games and patches, don't put any downloaded pk3 files in. leave it as fresh install. see what happens.
