You really have too?

Hi mappers…
I have question for you: Do you really have to use oasis water!
It is really ugly , and some places can use lightmapped water ( especially places where is dark ) , i hope you will stop using that ugly thing soon…
BTW: remapshader ( or how it is ) can be used to load new shader or it just load new texture ( because it didnt work for me … )

if you dont like the water, make your own, one you like, and spread it around. its the least you could do, instead of complaining.

who ruffled your knickers ?

post what you’re trying to remap and exactly how your planning on putting in in the script file.

remapshader “textures/jaquboss/complaining” “textures/jaquboss/nicer_jaqu”
remapshaderflush
(shaders as well as textures can be remapped…there are several similiar looking shaders that are default in-game. You’re probably replacing it’s twin that isn’t used.)

ok , i tried it EB, but it complains that it needs texture… Ddo i need for example that “textures/jaquboss/nicer_jaqu” even if i will not use it in new shader…
I complain cos i my friends hate it too and well u think that releaseing some textures mit shader will make mappers use it ? I dont think so…

Actually, I think mappers would use it. What would actually be nice is a test box map with 7-9 identical rooms with a different sample of water in it. That way, people can look at the water, see which one they like, and use the assets that are included with the pk3. I know I’d use it, if I was still mapping.

I can make that easily, even with tess’d water…I will start work on it today.
@Jaqu…can you post the errors u receive ?

Yeah that be great idea, kinda like the light experiment map, whoevers decides to make such a map could use water types like, river water, sea water, still water, dirty water etc etc, i for one would like such a test map.

hmm i deleted my scripts…
When i will find time i will try to make that map and some water textures ( I hope I will )
I will also give second try to shader remmapshader …
