Easygen Terrain not showing in Gtkradiant as it should

(gamboo) #1

Hey, getting ‘Shader Image Missing’, just gonna make some pointers on what I have done

Given the same name to the .map .pcx .shader files

The (.pcx) file is located in etmain, (.map) in etmain/maps and (.shader) in etmain/scripts

I have included the name of my shader file(without .shader) in shaderlist.txt

The path to the textures I used are etmain/textures/textures/desert_sd and with this I have changed the paths in my .shader file

e.g. textures//terrain_0 -> textures/textures/desert_sd/terrain_0

notes:
link to my .shader file -> http://www.freewebs.com/yaghli/test.shader
I have simply named the whole thing test, doubt this matters.
using gtkradiant 1.5.0 and easygen v142
windows vista

Ehr… Is it normal you included the folder textures twice? Because it would look like something you wouldn’t do unless you know what you’re doing…

ive been following a tut, im actually having another attempt with the second texture folder removed, but i dont see how it would effect the outcome.

just read about template_wolfet.zip
but I cant find a working link for it

I never needed those templates because I retrofitted the shaders myself when there was a problem with them, but take a look at IL Banca | Files | EasyGen. The updated templates can be downloaded at the top, right under “Downlad Easygen”.

still got shader image not found

used the template and moved terrain_base up to the top

this is my shader file atm:

What shaders are actually missing what image? W:ET should print out more information to know where to look…
