common textures missing


(mrfin) #1

Hello mapping types

After a while I have to reinstall et. which i have just done.
Thing is I can’t for the life of me find all the ‘common’ textures. When I request radient to load up the common textures it lists them all but displayes the ‘shader image missing’ icons.

When I dig into the texture folders there are only 3 in there.

Any ideas?? :???:

make sure in radiant “file/project settings/basepath” points to your et mapping installation, e.g. D:/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory/etmain/
further you might want to extract your pak0.pk3 again…

Thanks Thore

Have checked radient paths and all is ok
Have extracted all main files again…

alas…still no joy!

any other ideas?

Check “Show shaders” in the Textures menu. It sounds like they are hidden.

Thanks Shaderman

Still no joy though, all the available textures were being shown

??? :???:

…it’s as if they don’t exist in the ET installation!!

…am confused, surely they couldn’t have gone missing from the et.exe???


(NullZilla) #7

do you have common.pk3 in your etmain folder?


(thore) #8

is “wolfenstein: enemy territory” selected as the game to map for? check “edit/preferences/globals/game settings/”

and yes the editor is set up for et…

Thabks again both

Have tried both these and lo and behold I’m still lacking the common texture shader images.

Am going to try to install the previous version of radient and am redownloading ET…grr
