Title: darker texture
Post by: croduh on August 22, 2006, 12:22:33 PM

can you see the problem?

ground texture from road is just a copy paste from terr texture so it should look the same, but it doesn't.

Can this be fixed?

Maybe something to do with materials? What material your road is using?

First: road isn't mine, just re-textured

Second - what are materials for anyway.I never use them in objects?

1. Is your re-textured road partly transparent? Only a tire grooves are visible?

2. Materials define example how 3D object is reflecting the external lights or object is emiting the light or how transparent object or how shiny object is.

Maybe the teture is "grayscale" and needs to be changed to "256" color bitmap.

No, i tried before with transparent road ground texture but road bridges looked wierd.

nope the problem isn't in 8-bit.

Well i can't change the materials of the pre-built road so i'll guess i won't edit the texture too.

I know what your aiming for duh, but to me it looks fine. Not that it would help, because in your eyes everything needs to be perfect (No offense).:aok
