Hey guys, I recently discovered this map that's been sitting on my hard drive for ages, and so I put it into the BeamNG mod folder and loaded it up in-game, but all of the ground textures are black. I think it's because it uses an outdated materials.cs file. Here's how it used to look in an older update: And here's how it looks now: If anyone could tell me how I could fix it that would be great. I'll attach the file for the map (it's not made by me, all credit goes to the maker of the map) so that you guys who are better at this can try to fix it, but I would love to get permission from the creator to re-upload this map on the repository, it was one of my favorites, so if anyone knows who the creator is let me know so I can try to get in contact. But yeah, if anyone knows how to fix this, all help would be massively appreciated.
There are 2 files, one is the original, and one seems to be an update for it? I don't know, let me know how you go though.
Anyone know who the original author is? I’m going to try to get permission to upload it to the repository. Thanks so much for the fix, as I said, this is one of my favourite maps.
I might have found the original thread https://www.beamng.com/threads/a-map-to-crawl-over-modified.11854/ --- Post updated --- AND I found it on one of YBR's videos Oh and you use Brave Browser? Me too
Hey @Average Person, as far as I can tell, the original creator was a user called Darren9, but (once again) as far as I can tell he's left the beamng community because his profile doesn't exist anymore. if that is the case, then it should be fine for me to upload the map to the repository, as long as i have your permission seeing as you were the one who fixed the map. Is that alright with you? --- Post updated --- Actually I just tried to load it up in-game, and all of the ground textures are still black. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've just put the zip into C:\Users\(MySelf)\Documents\BeamNG.drive\mods
Anyone know what the problem might be? I'm going to try uninstalling and re-installing BeamNG to see if it'll work, (and I know this is said a lot, but..) any help would be greatly appreciated.
@DangerGamerHQ I found the old thread archived : https://web.archive.org/web/2016060...om/threads/a-map-to-crawl-over-update-1.3742/
Hey guys, so first of all, thank you to @RobloxFan2 for finding the original thread for the map, archived deep within the bowels of the internet (JK). Secondly, I did a fresh install of BeamNG, deleted everything, all of the mods I had installed (except some configs I made myself [including skins] for [any Aussies like me out there will know this] 4WD Action [now called 4WD 24/7] [lol confusing]), and the map works perfectly for me now. I had a look at the archived thread and it seems my thoughts were confirmed, Darren9, the original creator of this map, has left the BeamNG community forever. The first thing that comes to mind for me is that this map no-longer has an owner, therefore with the permission of @Average Person (who fixed the map), I should be able to upload it to the repository without getting drop kicked by the BeamNG developers. If this is incorrect could someone let me know? thanks So yeah @Average Person would it be ok with you for me to upload to the repo? (crediting you for fixing the map of course)
i have some super old mods by darren9 that no longer work if anyone can fix them i will post them here. i can't seem to find the file for one of them but here is the page i found https://web.archive.org/web/2016090...om/resources/dw-competition-rock-crawler.372/
Ok, to everyone who's contributed on this thread, thank you. I've now uploaded the map to the Repository, and it should pass approval in a few days. So yeah, I just want to thank you guys for helping to bring this map back to life, and I hope you'll check out my repo post when it releases, in my opinion, it's pretty good for a first try. So thanks for everything guys EDIT: The post's been approved and it's on the repo now! Go check it out if you want. Thanks guys
