Hi guys,

I got a weird texture problem.

I searched the forum for 2 days but couldn't find anything similar.

I had to reinstall my complete pc and lost a year of mapping work.
Now I started all over again and decided to do it more carefull.

I just completed a couple of rooms with some custom textures in it and went on to test them.
Compiling went ok, couple of errors about textures repeats to many times, but no big deal.

Weird enough, a stock texture doesn't show in game and some of my custom textures are white and others show correctly.
Also on some of the surfaces the custom textures show up blackened

After I saw that i did the textureconversions again in Asset manager, made the .IWD again and compiled again.

Guess what-- still the same issues.

I don't know if the problem is in the name, coz I used _ in the names, but those textures don't show up.

Can anybody help me out of my misery ( and I don't mean to shoot me )

Here some screens to show what I mean

Here you see the stock texture not showing.No error message in the compilelog.


Here you see custom textures not there.
In radiant image and game test image you see left and right a custom texture on the wall, but floor is missing.


Here the blackened texture, one side hasn't it, the other does! WTH


Hope I can get this solved.

Thanks for the help and for the great job you guys are doing.

Well, I have solved most of my problems.

Turned out to be the compression software.
I did use winzip, but I guess it was a bad copy, allthough I downloaded it from the official website.

When I did it again with powerarchiverit worked like a charm.

I'm still missing the stock texture icbm_metal_vent.
And the blackening of the custom texture still remains.

These problems I have to solve with something else.

Thanks for those who looked at the post, but didn't reply, made me find it myself.
