.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

aaaagggghhhhh!

I have a terrain with only one texture plus a sky and I get black squares and in some spots "holes" that do psychadelic stuff with the texture but can't fall through...

Maybe you could be a little bit more specific (especially on the 'psychadelic stuff')? I assume you textured your terrain?

sry newbie to asking for help...

my map has one texture for the entire terrain...streetgravel
in mohrad everything looks great...no visible errors

after I compile and launch map I get black spots like two textures don't blend well, but I am using only one texture for the whole terrain

then I have a couple of what looks like voids in the ground, they are white holes when seen from a distance but when you walk up to them they take the terrain texture and do this type of vertigo effect where it looks like the texture is spinnging in a whirlpool

Well if your map is only a skybox with a terrain patch in it, you might as well consider recreating it.

I'd also love a screenshot 'cause I've never seen a gravel whirlpool

I think I tracked the "holes" down to something to do with flat triangles.

In Easygen v1.42 I selected the show flat triangles and the same shape of my "hole" appeared highlighted in red on the terrain, I edited the terrain so it wasn't flat in that spot and my hole went away...but I still have the black spots like the textures don't blend...I'm only using one texture! how can textures not blend with themselves?

I also have four screen shots from the holes, I can post them or email you the links if you's still like to see them.

Regarding Terrain issues, I am having a similar one with my latest map. I have bridges in my map, and when I am underneath them I see no gap where the bridge meets the ground, but if I am a distance away, a gap appears. It must be a visual error, because when I throw on the binoculars, the gap dissapears. I have the LOD Terrain scaled to 25 triangles to avoid lag in Radiant. Any way to stop these popup gaps from showing at a distance? They appear under the roads and walls too, and even though there isn't really a gap there, it takes away from the visual effect I am trying to achieve. I can post some screenshots if you need more specifics.

MPowell, are you using our staff avatar?

An edited version of it, yes. Will it conflict with something? If so, I'll take it down.

Hehehe it's cool 8).

I'll ask Surgeon to send you the pink jv_map fanclub badge as well .

lol. I don't think I would look good in pink.
