Shader + pk3 problems

([MOS]StiloMAN.pl) #1

When I use bsp files and play in sv_pure 0 game use my shader file for my texture…

But when I try to play pk3 file, game doesn’t use shader file…
what I have to do?

This is PK3 file:


+ Maps:
   map.bsp
   map.srf
   map.prt
   map.bak
   map.script
   map.arena
   

+ Scripts:
   map.arena
   map.script
   stilo.shader

+ Textures:
   stilo_snow_64
   (other textures)

and code of stilo.sader:


// stilo.shader

textures/stilo/stilo_snow_64
{
	surfaceparm snowsteps
        surfaceparm landmine 
	implicitMap -
}

is code of stilo.shader file valid for pk3 ??
EDIT: More informative title

is map.shader in shaderlist.txt?

([MOS]StiloMAN.pl) #3

Well,

Write propertly structure of the files in pk3.

I have /textures/stilo_snow_64.jpg and I wanna use shader for this image in pk3 file. When I use sv_pure 0 and .bsp files I can use shader files.

Please write step by step :drink:

I Think it should be textures/stilo/stilo_snow in your pk3 file.
IE Make the folder stilo in your texture folder then and stilo_snow… and it should work if all is correct, cant see anything wrong with your shader

I still don’t know what in my pk3 is wrong :banghead:

This is my PK3:

Dir /maps

mos_kk_0_06.bsp, mos_kk_0_06.script, mos_kk_0_06_tracemap.tga

Dir /levelshots

mos_kk_0_06.tga, mos_kk_0_06_tracemap.tga

Dir /scripts

shaderlist.txt, stilo.shader, mos_kk_0_06.arena, mos_kk_0_06.script

Dir /textures

Dir /stilo {brown_wall.jpg, stilo.shader, tex_wall.jpg, stilo_snow_64.jpg, other}

I have added file shaderlist.txt:

@Drakir, in that thread I haven’t found anything about placing shaderfiles and using them in pk3 file.

I need works shaderfiles in pk3. I don’t know why this shaderfile doesn’t works in pk3 :???: :bored: :eek2: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Ok, do these:

  1. remove shaderlist.txt from your pk3. It is bad!
  2. rename your stilo.shader into mos_kk_0_06.shader

The shader file needs to be the same name as the map. The shader file itself can contain any named shaders.

What does the mos_kk_0_06.script file do in scrits directory. It needs to be only in maps?

What does lm_0000.tga > lm_0006.tga files in pk3 ??

(Loffy) #11

Hi!
Im pretty sure they are externally stored lightmaps.
But don’t ask me more - I do not know alot about these so called lightmaps. They are used by the game to draw the environments and light these surfaces. (I think.)
My question is: are lightmaps always “created” by the compiler, or only when there are outdoor environments?

(hhhmmmmm) #12

I think the light maps are always in game if you complie with light , as my current map which should go to beta this weekend (v57) has them and there is no outdoors in it.

Are you sure the picture is correct drakir? [MOS]StiloMAN.pl had problems that the engine did not realize that the shader file “stilo.shader” has shaders for his map and did not loaded the shader file. But when he changed the shader file’s name it did work. I thought that the shader file must be same name as the map?

In your image there is your_shadername.shader it should be mapname.shader just like mapname_levelshots.shader must start with the maps name.

Well i am sure that the .shader file dont have to have the mapname.
In Northpole i used a shader for all my stuff that did not have the mapname.

Think of it this way, if you are using “caulk”, it comes from common.shader and that still works right!

(svenni) #15

So that is why you should never edit the original .shader files (like i.e. common.shader) but instead create your own? But what happens if someone uses the same name in a shader (i.e textures/silo/silo_wall)? Is the shader which belongs in the correct .pk3 automaticly chosen? And what happens if two different maps are named the same (i.e silo.bsp)?

Just good to know…
