Texture color problem in TSE
by Chan Chi Kit · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 10/29/2006 (7:13 am) · 4 replies
I export my model and add it to TGE, the texture color performance is same as in 3D Max.
But when I add the model to TSE with following material script:
new Material(materialName)
{
mapTo = myTexture;
baseTex[0] = "myTexture";
translucent = true;
};
The texture color in TSE is more darker than that in TGE.
Is this true for TSE?
How can I fix the problem?
It is really difficult for artist to define the color in 3D Max.
Thanks ~

Hmm..maybe this is a gamma correction issue and that you need to make the game screen brighter. Have a search for gamma correction in TSE.--Amr

Suchs as
You should read over the materials overview section on TDN for all the available options.

It probably looks dark because you didn't give it any lighting properties.Suchs as
pixelSpecular[0] = true; specular[0] = "0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1"; specularPower[0] = "8.0";

It could be that it was emissive in TGE, so you can try that parameter. You also didn't apply a blendOp for your translucent material; the default is LerpAlpha, which is darker than additive.
