Marble textures won't load.

by Teknogeek · in Marble Blast · 11/15/2004 (2:09 pm) · 5 replies

Hi, I just downloaded some custom marble textures and when I start Marble Blast, the texture on the marble doesn't move when I play the levels, and the texture looks like the top of the skybox.

Any suggestns?

    Is the extension correct? It should be base.marble.png. It may be using a default skin otherwise. The file belongs in the data/shapes/ball directory.

    The only other thing I can think of is the file might have something like an alpha channel associated with it. (Don't know if PNG stores alpha though).

    Good luck and have a (ahem) blast here!

    I have fulfilled al those requirements, and I'm not worrying about the image because Bob made it.

    When I put the original marble back it works fine, but anything else and it doesn't load the texture.

    BTW I'm using a Mac.

    Hmm. I seem to have solved it by applying a 25% alpha to the texture, like the original had.

    Odd.

    Set the opacity to exactally 25%
