Track creation guide

[EVO]

i think the problem is my specular map has data in the RGB channel so it throwing it off. we will see

[Schwoni]

or you missed to check that 2 checboxes before export?

[EVO]

This problem only affects the aspahlt.  Ii thought we only have to do shadow maps when we export?  we also have shadow volumes? when I move the .SHD files out of the folder shadows come back after export

Put here your shader file (bump and/or specular), the code you used on SHD file and the asph file, we can help you better this way

here are my files for track surface

again the shadow comes back when i stop using the .SHD

i dont use .shd for any of my files

You should, because there is a big difference between this  :



and this:

I can't see any problem with the files... Do a test and make a bump file for the asphalt, the track will be better and probably the shadow problem will be fixed

It seems that there is a bug with starting lights texture when rains. WIth sun or clouds, the off texture is dark, but with rain, the off texture is bright, like ON texture...

i already noticed that,too but it hasnt disturbed me.

[EVO]

Are piboso track like that? I havent had chance to check

Can you confirm that it's a problem with Map Viewer only?

[Aritz]

I'll try later

I'll try later

Are there other unresolved track rendering problems in Beta8? Please note that Map Viewer hasn't been updated in a very long time.

[Aritz]

Yes, the no-darkened 2nd channel textures when rains. Opaccity is used for dirt on grass or whatever, but in wet the grass is darker but not the dirt.

The track is rendered differently in krp than mapview i noticed
