terrain blending (sockters tutorial)

(Wezelkrozum) #1

I had downloaded the example-map at sockters-site but when i open the map sockter-test8 i get this:

The alpha textures or something must be invisible and non-solid and there must be blending.
And now i’m afraid i shall never create a good terrain. Can somebody tell what’s going wrong? :frowning:

Did you download the shader file and add the name of that shader file to your shaderlist.txt?

Also, you might need the newest Q3Map2 build. It is supplied with GTKRadiant 1.5, but you can copy it to GTKRadiant 1.4 as well.

not really
i was making my own terrain and testing it but i get this:

it’s is half blended :?

why works it half?

this is my shaderfile:
(blue = snow1 and yellow = rock_snow1)


textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/blend_snowrock		// Normal texture blending
{
        qer_editorimage textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/blend_snowrock.tga
	
	q3map_nonplanar
	q3map_shadeAngle 120
	
	{
		map textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/rock_snow1.tga	// Primary
		rgbGen identity
	}
	{
		map textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/snow1.tga	// Secondary
		blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA
		alphaFunc GE128
		rgbGen identity
		alphaGen vertex
	}
	{
		map $lightmap
		blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
		rgbGen identity
	}
}

textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/snow1		// Decal blending
{
        qer_editorimage textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/snow1.tga
	q3map_nonplanar 
	q3map_shadeangle 120 
	surfaceparm trans 
	surfaceparm nonsolid 
	surfaceparm nomarks
	polygonoffset
	{
		map textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/snow1.tga
		alphaFunc GE128
		rgbGen identity
		alphaGen vertex
	}
	{
		map $lightmap
		blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
		rgbGen identity
		depthFunc equal
	}
}

textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/rock_snow1
{
	q3map_nonplanar
	q3map_shadeangle 120
        qer_editorimage textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/rock_snow1.tga
	{
		map $lightmap
		rgbGen identity
	}
	{
		map textures/terrain_wezelkrozum1/rock_snow1.tga
		blendFunc filter
	}
}

The line
alphaFunc GE128

basicly means rounding. Try it without that line for a smoother blend.

Nothing beats the feeling when it works and you can fly around and walk around in your own 3d world.

Hows about winning a grand final (of the major competition on your continent) on it?

Been there :smiley:

(Wezelkrozum) #13
