Re: (WiP) dust thrower update and a tour - - - Updated - - - UPDATE more screens extended hillclimb area new trails and update on the TTC oval style track
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 ALPHA RELEASE 1ST POST - - - Updated - - - added the zip sorry guys tired dont judge me lol xD
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 no i did not i'll see why it did that taking zip down till then
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 Okay. It's a common problem I've noticed among early released maps. I'm not sure how to fix it, but to test it I'd recommend you transfer the folder to another PC running drive (if you have one) and try it out there.
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 i did not add the heightmap on accident try re-downloading it
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 No difference sadly, when loading it gives an error that it failed to create the .ter file.
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 k i'll see what i can do later this is gonna be a open testing thread i guess :/
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 You need to change the .mis so its looking in the correct folder for the .ter, its currently looking for "levels/create_a_map/pure offroad.ter" instead of "levels/Dust Thrower/pure offroad.ter". You will also need to fix all the .cs files in your art folder to look for the correct folder as well to prevent problems later on.
Re: [alpha release] Dust Thrower UPDATE 3 oh..thanks lol did not even know there was a area like that i needed to change i'll update it now and you can try it to see if it works - - - Updated - - - map should be working now IF YOU DO get simple texture errors let me know
Re: [now working/alpha testing] Dust Thrower UPDATE 4 It works! 2 no material errors which are shown in this image. Also it would be nice if it had a preview image. I think you just name the image (map name)_preview.
Re: [now working/alpha testing] Dust Thrower UPDATE 4 thanks yes i was gonna change the textures but i was gonna see if it worked for anyone else, and yea i need to make a preview image but im gonna wait till the map is done for that. dont know why it does that with the mud texture, i'll fix this real fast check back in a hour should have it done by then
Re: [open testing/alpha testing] Dust Thrower UPDATE 4 yea seen your create-a-map thread was like "welp guess im working on a map for a good 5 6 months" gonna be my first map to. - - - Updated - - - small update but needed if you get texture errors fixes improvements show in the list of things added/fixed/improved
Re: [open testing/alpha testing] Dust Thrower still in progress if there are some map critics/lovers out there this map is still in progress its just becoming a bit slower due to trying to find some ideas and taking my time on it. most of the problems you see now on this thread are fixed i have added a few more things and improved the short course track gonna wait a bit more on the new open testing release cause i want to add more stuff that is gonna make it a big update, in the meantime throw me some ideas if you got any im more then welcome to include a idea into the map
Re: [open testing/alpha testing] Dust Thrower UPDATE 4 Hey Skull, awesome looking map. I tried to load it up, but it gave me this: "Failed to create resource: [levels/Create_A_Map/Create_A_Map.forest]" "Failed to create resource: [levels/Create_A_Map/art/shapes/groundcover/grass_field_closetop.dae]" Any idea how I can fix that or work around it?
Re: [open testing/alpha testing] Dust Thrower UPDATE 4 i'll upload my recent version see if that works
