Solved Can't select meshes in forest tool

When I create the Forest I need to select mesh and when I click on add new mesh no thing happens:

When I try to select it in the inspector it says none:


Please help, I've been trying this so many times now and I can't figure out. I can place separate trees through the aseet browser by the way.

 

You first have to select a (geometry) mesh (dae file) whithin the forest mesh section. This opens a file selection dialog.


Then, within the forest brush, section you can select the above prepared mesh object. This opens a object selection dialog (you show above).


So there are kinda two stages: forest meshes and forest brushes. Aaand above that there are brush groups.
Hope that helps

 

As I mentioned, when I click on add mesh in the meshes, nothing happens - the screen flashes once and then nothing.

 

At least something like the following should appear.

Does it?

There you would select the dae file... If it only falshes once it might be a bug, idk. Maybe delete your "the Forest" item in your scene tree and then you'll be asked if BeamNG should create a new one if you reselect the forest tool. I hope maybe that helps...

 

No, this doesn't show up. I'll try to reinstall the game and try it again. Thank you for all your help!

 

Did you try it on a vanilla map?

 

Ok, I just reinstalled the game and in both my map and the default map it's this same issue.

 

Ok, I recorded a video to make it kind of more clear:

 

That's crazy: in your video I can see some ReShade window opening?! This is at the wrong place at the wrong time, idk. Maybe try the thing without using ReShade .
Did you took a look into your log files just before and after that window opens? Maybe you can find some error massages in there. But I am pretty shure there is some conflict with ReShade, imo.

 

This problem was present before I had reshade, so that's not the issue. Where can I find the log?

 

Hi,
The log files are in your user folder's root, should look like this:

1. Delete all of them
2. Start BeamNG and load everything
3. Then trigger the issue and make a copy of "beamng.log" just after that
4. Scroll form bottom to top
5. Provide the file here so I could take a look into it, too.

Another way to aquire some error messages is to open the console window. Check your keybinding for that. It should then look like this (the red lines are errors in this example):

Also trigger the issue with the console opened. Maybe we can find a clue

 

Ok, there's clearly a huge error in the console:



Haven't got the log file yet and thank you very much for your help!

Ok, I finally gave up and deleted all mods except my map and not it works. Sorry if I wasted your time.

 

Nothing wasted . Did you mean "now it works"?
Anyway I took a quick look into your error messages and in the first line it says something like the "file selector box" (that is the window that popped up and disappeared) crashed due to an unsupported character somewhere in your (mod) files. If you find this file and character, that might be the direct entry point for a solution without deleting all mods .

 

Yes, I mean now it works.
