Material error
by Duion · in Torque 3D Beginner · 03/25/2013 (3:16 pm) · 7 replies
Every time I load a level I get several errors in the console, it says "[MaterialList::mapMaterials] Unable to find material for texture: soil_rough_base" this goes for every terrain layer and after that there is "[Material::mapMaterial] - Cannot map unnamed Material" also for every layer.
This does not do anything visible, but I would like to solve that, I don't like a list of red error messages each time.

Quote:Some... not all. To be honest I've not even looked at clearing this particular message. But if anyone would like to present a solution pull requests are welcome.
Console spam. I believe that it's marked for cleanup in the next T3D 2.0 version.

You could also change it into to a warning instead of an error; as the blue doesn't look that dramatic as red.

I commented it out at line 351 and 357 from materialList.cpp when I couldn't look at those any longer.You could also change it into to a warning instead of an error; as the blue doesn't look that dramatic as red.

Issue has been fixed in the T3D development branch. The problem was incomplete material data.
