textures missing from game

Post by apostle »

Do you really mean textures missing (would show as black, white and yellow plaid) or surfaces missing (nothing shows)?

hm bit plastered but if ur textures show in radiant then they wouldhave to show in game as u alreayd have those textures in main directory, if they are showing as void or black.....i dunno what causes this but ive had it before, make sure u got nothing filtered delete that brush n anything else that maybe there :? and redo it.

the textues are missing from one side of the brush.... one side its fine.... the other side it is just blank

i have tried to re-texture the whole brush but it is still playing up... im not sure if it could be because i have the compiler on fast for vis and light options

ill get some screen shots so i can show you what i mean

i had the same problem in the same places before..... i deleted the brush.... then drew another one textured it..... and now i dont just have the problem on the texture not showing up i also sometimes have the old brush showing.... notice the different shape in these to pics

as the last pics above show.... in radiant i have one brush.... and i cant selected the one that i deleted.... but in mohaa the old (DELETED) one shows up :twisted: :x


i have tried snaping it to grid (Ctrl g)..... retexturing the brush..... deleting the brush and drawing a new one..... i dont know what else to try apart from move the building/wall to another spot (move it 8 units and try it there)

Your screenshots are not showing up, but missing faces are a vis problem. Try moving the missing face one unit from its curent grid plane, and make sure it is on the grid lines--if not, cut it, or use "snap points to grid".
