Clutter issues are killing my brain

[colddna 5]

below i added my configs, but i just can not figure out why my shit is not showing up i narrowed it down to just one clutter and i have no idea anymore any help will be appreciated

Says page removed. I had this before, think it was due to upper case in surfaces...

i guess try theses ones

[RoF 241]

In your layers you don't need to put the rgb colours in the top bit.

 

You have

        texture = #(rgb,243,237,105)color(0.5,0.5,0.5,1,cdt);

Mine is

    texture = #(rgb,1,1,1)color(0.5,0.5,0.5,1,cdt);

I did that before and it stopped one of my textures loading.

 

 

Also in surfaces i think this bit should be the same as the class name

 
                 character = "green_grass_character"; < dna_grass_green_Character

Same with at bottom

        class green_grass_character < same as above dna_grass_green_Character
        {
                probability[] = {0.99};
                names[] = {"grass_green1"};
        };

This is how its set up on mine, from the Atlas guide files...

[colddna 5]

ok, im not near my pc at home but i will try that i was just test the RGB one to see cuz i tried the 1,1,1 but something wasnt showing but ill go back thank you and i will report back if anything is still lets say fucked up

[RoF 241]

It's 1am here so I might have missed something really obvious lol

[colddna 5]

no worries man thank you

[1para{god-father} 105]

In fact you don't need anything  below works just fine all my texture are "".

texture = ""; 
material= "Kapaulio\data\god_grass.rvmat"; 

[colddna 5]

yah i had it at the too but i was just playing with it, it actually worked on the layers just not clutter the rgb 1,1,1 worked and rgb 193,255,80 worked and also the "", worked but just no clutter at all

[jimbop 25]

whats with all the '\\  ?

 

why not a single '\' ?

[RoF 241]

whats with all the '\\  ?

 

why not a single '\' ?

 

I thought the same thing, but I think it's a paste bin thing. Click "See Original" and they don't show up then.

[colddna 5]

ahh yah its a paste  bin thing

here is my clutter and surfaces and it is still not working

    };

};

 

In your layers it's down as dna_grass_green, you seem to have mixed "grass" and "green" up in a couple of places

[colddna 5]

So my question is the files line, that points to the actual file name?

[RoF 241]

yep

        dust = 0.15;
        soundEnviron = "grass";
        character = "dna_grass_green_character";

Do you have your clutter in your project folder at all?, I think it might be my clutter file messing it up because mine matches your pretty good but I did notice you are putting the cfg surfaces character name different then me and that is probally were mine is going wrong can u give me an example of yours pls

[colddna 5]

Or it may be I have dna _grass_green_* but it should be dna_grass_* right so that it matches the layers class name, I dunno I'm lost now, Iol gotta love the challenge

Can I ask, What folder it is that you pack into .pbo? The folder named "dna" or "oahu"?

[Mattastic 97]

Or it may be I have dna _grass_green_* but it should be dna_grass_* right so that it matches the layers class name, I dunno I'm lost now, Iol gotta love the challenge

 

Indeed the challenge is what makes it fun. The naming convention could be a problem. I would recommend using the same name that you used for layers for your surfaces. I'll post my layers.cfg so that you can see what i am talking about. Compare the names of classes between my layers and surfaces.

please tell me your jesting here!  ;)

 

ive just got some clutter appearing in my map...by more luck than judgement I fancy.

 

everything about TB is a right pain in the bollox! I bow down to every terrain builder out there who has got a map up n running 

 

my kingdom for a detailed tutorial on pond/river placement now.
