Dif model Crashes on Lighting

by Frogger · in Artist Corner · 03/23/2004 (4:13 pm) · 4 replies

My DIF model, which is a simple bridge, by the way, crashes Torque when I relight the scene. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

EDIT: I get the errors:

Could not locate texture: starter.racing/data/interiors/racing/NULL
Could not locate texture: starter.racing/data/interiors/racing/ORIGIN
Could not locate texture: starter.racing/data/interiors/racing/TRIGGER

Are you sure that all the polys have a texture?

That particular error doesn't usually cause a problem. You can throw in the /racing/ direcotry some textures named "null.png", "origin.png" and "trigger.png" just to make sure, but I'm pretty sure that's not the problem.

Well, maybe do I have to add those entities to my map? I guess I'll just recreate the map, Its not that hard y'know...
it's just really strange.

Nah...I've seen those errors before and they weren't the problem. My guess would be a stray poly untextured. You might try selecting the whole structure, applying one single texture on the whole thing, and then see if it will load like that.

Yeah that's the first thing I would check. I'm no modeller, but i've seen it time and again. If there is any mesh with no tetxure assignment, Torque will crash.
