Applied RVMAT's on a Rifle - Game crashes

[Sakai 1]

Hi there!

With help I managed to get rvmats for one of my weapons and with honesty I never worked with rvmats before however all I need to do is apply RVMATS to the section of the gun for example I have RVMAT for a magazine because its a separate texture and so I apply the magazine RVMAT to the magazine and then the whole weapon to its own RVMAT however when I go and test out the weapon in the game, the game crashes when I want to load up in editor with the gun...

RPT file shows nothing but if needed I will show you.

Sorry how do you know it's being caused by the RVMATS?

Because without RVMAT's assigned it works perfectly...?

[PuFu 4600]

can post the rvmat here?

[Sakai 1]

Sure however I believe its nothing to do with the RVMAT's inside but maybe I applied the RVMAT's wrongly? I don't know really..

I thought all textures must be put into a "data" folder, maybe im wrong, maybe im not, give that a try isntead of your textures folder, be sure to change all the paths after if you do try

Nothing like that applies, you can name your folders whatever you want.

[Alwarren 2767]

I have never seen useWorldEnvMap = "true"; being used, have you tried to remove that?

Still crashes :|

[PuFu 4600]

seems fine over a brief look over it. You certain all your textures and in 2^n format, yes? (including normals, speculars etc)

Would you be able to explain what you mean by 2^n

[Alwarren 2767]

A texture were each side is a power of two pixels, like 1,2,4,8,16 etc... typical sizes are 512, 1024, 2048.

Aite that made my brain understand yes they all are in 2^n format

2^0 = 0, not 1 :)

i have no clue out. have you tried using an existing rvmat that you know it works already?

Its a fresh model so It never had a RVMAT so one has been created.

[PuFu 4600]

try one of bis

[Sakai 1]

try one of bis

Not gonna work out well due the magazine has its own texture & rvmat as I wrote in the first post I believe I could of screw something inside the Oxygen when applying?

[Alwarren 2767]

2^0 = 0, not 1 :)

Actually, no. 2^0 = 1. Any number to the power of zero is one, actually :)

what happend if you remove

{

texture = "aks74u\textures\74u_smdi.paa";

};

?? I never use this line in any rvmatt

oh the shame! :)

[Alwarren 2767]

Hehe :D

[shinkicker 5]

Are you binarizing your rvmats?

I have the following options, under binPBO for 'List of files to copy directly'

*.pac;*.paa;*.rtm;*.sqf;*.sqs;*.bikb;*.fsm;*.wss;*.ogg;*.wav;*.fxy;*.csv;*.html;*.lip;*.txt;*.wrp;*.bisurf;*.rvmat

I might be wrong here, but I remember not having the above clause for .rvmat and it either stopped the material from working or it crashed the game.

[redstone 14]

I have never seen useWorldEnvMap = "true"; being used, have you tried to remove that?

This is new parameter for rvmats, when it's true, as enviroment map is used map defined from island config(each usermade island can has own one.)

I think it should be caused by stage6...

Try this one:

class Stage6

{

texture="#(ai,64,64,1)fresnel(10.4,8.3)";

uvSource = "tex";

class uvTransform

{

aside[] = {1,0,0};

up[] = {0,1,0};

dir[] = {0,0,1};

pos[] = {0,0,0};

};

};

Do these work with the binPBO we have? I know that e.g. the unhide for the hide animation needs a new binarization and therefore cannot be used with what we currently have...
