Unded 1

Post by spysmily1 »

I'm using the Unded 1 editor for Undying. Some of the textures don't load when creating a new map. Even when trying to load them manually, they don't show up.

Whenever I load an already made map, I do get extra textures. I believe only if the level used the textures do they show up though. I haven't fully tested this but I have loaded a few maps and it seems to be the case that if the map is using it they show up.

How do I always make these available? Thanks for any help ahead of time. I've been a fan of this site since early on and thought I had a registered account but had to create a new one.

Try loading the texture package out of the texture browser. This should give you the missing textures. This is actually a common UnrealEd problem to just load the referenced textures and not the whole package.

The Human Head guys actually added a PrecachePackage feature to their EditorEngine to force load the load of specified packages so they always show up.

Installing unrealedfix4.exe (to a random directory) usually solves the missing files for UnrealEd 1 issues.

I tried loading by the texture browser first and nothing happens. If I change the name of the package to something like aaa.utx then I can load it. I can't load them with the default name. Only if I load a default map will it load the textures with their default names. As another note, I can't load default maps unless I change their name too. I'm guessing this is to protect changing them because they are part of the game.

Another question is, can I decide what textures load when I startup UndEd?

Revised: So I found out the problem was the length of the path. This is a GOG install and the path is extremely long (C:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\Clive Barkers Undying). I ended up realizing that in certain directories aa.utx would work but if an extra letter was added it wouldn't work. This goes for maps too. I ended up copying the whole undying directory to c:\ and it now works for everything. I can load any map with default names and any texture package with default names.
