its all invisible.....

i dont think its the shaders..i mean granted when i turn them off they all show up..but...if i do shaders active with anything that came STOCK with fps creator..and use shaders..it works fine..as you can see shaders are active in this screenshot i took..but my floors and walls are not showing..the basement..which is made up of stock cellar segments is showing tho.

anyone know what i might have done wrong?

all the textures for my models for the wall and floor were put into it using segment maker and the floor and walls have D, D2, and N maps for them...

did i mess up something?

anyone else have this problem?

please let me know if you do and or if you fixed it

I would say it is the Segment Texture Error, where some single model segments would lose their textures and allow the player to see through them, but not to this extreme... what are you system stats? This very well might be a system problem either with incompatability or drivers or DX version.

Oh, and for the less fortunate (TGC is stuck at 300kbs download, flucting around 250 however.

my computer stats are

2.6GHZ
256 Nvidia Geforce FX OC 6200
around 800MB of RAM

but i dont get it..

can you use bump maps on segments?

i mean...the stock fps creator segments have noise maps and all that

jazz and the cellar seems to be loading fine..

but my custom ones wont...

i wanna give up almost but i refuse to accept that no one else

has had this problem

im using the segment creator from the fps creator

and im using the latest fps creator PATCHED to the most recent version

i just dont understand whats goin on

also

can some explain to me what shaders are and what they do

cause when i turn shaders off the segments show..but they dont show

with the detail i provided....

when i turn shaders off it seems to be only using the base texture

and not all the layers i created

anyone have any clue whats goin on?

shaders are kind strange right now. they seem to make things disapear, get miscolored, and generally wacky. I would not reccomend using them.

Did you try updating everything on your machine?

Try updating your graphic card, your dx and if you don't have already, install SP2 on your winxp (if you're using xp).

In my low-end pc, i found out that lots of crashes, strange textures and stuff like that, were caused becouse i didn't have SP2 installed (dunno SP2, but seems it has some files required for some games and apps., i really never cared to know what SP2 does), and i was lacking really long update from dx.

Try doing this, then feel free to come back and tell us if it fixed or not, your problem.

My love is seperated in 2 parts, 1 of them is 3ds Max 7, the other; FPSC.

have you download all the updates for fps creator.Because i had this problem a long time ago,and when i ran test game/build game it turn every thing black but i dont have this problem any more sence i Fix it by reloding fpsc, my proble though was i download some free entitys from here and they had the self install thing go on (make things alot easier but hey hade to do what i had to do meaning installing all of them through make entity from x files. )but with the updates that dont happen any more either.
