setObjectTexture black untill very close in first person.

[mindstorm 8]

Hey,

I have a sign (Sign_F) where I attach 2 1M user textures to (UserTexture1m_F). The textures I apply to them are however are black up untill I aproach them very close in first person. Then they "load" and from then on they work, also after a restart of the mission.

this setObjectTexture [0, ""img\warning2.jpg""]; this attachTo [sign1, [-0.50, -0.02, 0.6] ];

Could anyone else check if they experience the same or am I doing something wrong?

Try using the ".paa" format instead of ".jpg". That should help.

Bug report suggest it is the same with .paa. But I will test it out, also with setObjectTexture global.

Thing is you need to restart arma after each try, this makes it a rather frustrating process to test.

You shouldn't need to restart Arma after inputing a new picture?

I think all pictures cached after first load, so you need to restart if you updating picture with the same name.

I just resave the mission then preview again and it works for me, I've never restarted the whole game to "reset" a picture after I've changed it.

You mustn't use double quotes in there.

this setObjectTexture [0, "img\warning2.jpg"]; this attachTo [sign1, [-0.50, -0.02, 0.6] ];

Format needs to be .paa, dimensions HAVE to be 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024 or 2048x2048. Give it a new name with each new try!
