Model cant load textures in game

Recommended Posts

Hi all

I have been working for some time on a model plane and have gone through nearly all the tutorials and forums looking for advice.

I have created a plane.p3d and textured with UV mapping (although I didn't do a complete seamed unwrap...too complicated !) All my animations work in buldozer and the textures look fine.

I run BinPBO and create a PBO, then start up the game ARMA2OA, using my model.... except the textures are all missing (error "cant load texture XXX\XXX\XXX.paa").

I am packing with BinPBO without binarizing (as the model crashes to desktop if it is binarized ???!!!!). Also all the texture .paa files are copied straight over without binarizing.

I thought initially it might be BinPBO cocking up.... so i used Eliteness and CPBO.... both create a working PBO, but the textures still dont work.

I thought that if the model worked in buldozer.... it would work in game...... clearly I am missing something here :confused:

.... if this is covered elsewhere, I am really sorry for not finding it on the forum or google: please could someone point me in the right direction.

Any pointers would be most appreciated.

Are you sure the pbo name is the same as the start folder name of were the textures are stored?

myplane1.pbo = path myplane1\texture.paa

DOH......... stupid me!

How did I not notice this...... thanks m8.... sorted.

EXCEPT....now the textures dont work in Buldozer..... duh?

Presume this is something wrong with my buldozer cfg.....

(you would not believe how many times I have changed my files around, guess I stopped checking paths after the zillionth time)

oh well, at least that is easy to sort out. thanks again :o

Yeah paths are OK... I hadnt changed path for textures in O2.... didnt know I had to (it was working last week.... must've changed it somehow when tinkering with settings..?)

Anyways.... here is some images of my Tornado WIP..... :)
