texture not showing up in ARMA?

[Guest]

Well when i first tried to get my addon to work in ARMA, it didnt work. Originally it was being used in VBS1. Basically the same thing as OFP. The addon worked fine.

First thing that got the addon to go into ARMA was a small config change which JAHVE helped me get sorted. I can post the config if anyone wants to see...but the topic here is more related towards the texture issue...

So once the addon successfully showed up in the editor, I placed all the objects.... and for some reason about half of them showed up with no texture.

I tried a few things out as i had no idea why this was happening.

anyways Im not going to write down all my failed attempts...

The solution for me and hopefully you is in O2...

I selected the object and hit SHIFT E

and for the surface properties you have several things you can check.

Normal, on surface, above surface, etc etc

If there is nothing checked when you hit shift E on your selected object, then this is where the problem could be.

I solved the texture issue by checking NORMAL

Hopefully this helps anyone who is getting an object into ARMA who is having this texture issue...
