    If you're getting black textures on maps, like Leap of Death's Roads, here is an easy fix!
    1. Open map in windowed mode
    2. Hit f11
    3. Click on the paint brush
    4. Double click on the texture thats giving you trouble, (you can probably tell which one it is because it doesn't have a thumbnail next to it, if not double click them till you find the one that doesnt have at least 2 or three of the terrain boxes filled.)
    5. Click Edit next to Diffuse.
    6. Navigate to content/levels/(your map here)/art/terrains
    7. Find the file that matches the file name in the open bar of the file browser
    8. If you don't have a filename in the open bar find something that looks like overlay_(misingtexturename), or something similar
    9. Repeat steps 5-8 with Detail and Normal
    10. The flies should look like (missingtexturename)_d and (missingtexturename)_n
    11. Normal should be a bitchin' shade of purple
    12. Save map
    13. Rejoice for what was once barren is now laden with texture.
    If it didn't work, root around in other map's files for the textures (this may screw things up later)
    If you cant find it, pick another set of files to use as a place holder.
    If it still doesn't work, well son, there is nothing I can do for you now. Make amends to whatever god you believe in, kiss your children, and prepare to die, or pick another map.

    I put this here cause i saw another fix thread here, so place this where it needs to go mods.
