Problem with animal textures

Post by Gonzalo »

Hi everyone, my name is Gonzalo (aka Michael 34) and I have contributed some animals and buildings to 1.5 patch. But I have a problem with my animals that I don't seem to be able to fix: when two animal models, even with different model and texture, appear at once in the game, one or the other apears without texture, in a blank black colour...any help or hint would be much appreciated.

It sounds like a missing texture problem. Make sure UnitModel for the same UnitType exists.

Thank you, Excellence. Nope, the problem, I think, is that I have many animals with the same skeleton (deer, wolf, etc) or perhaps I used the same model (changing just name) with different textures. Best regards...
P. S. Thank you for feedback =)

It's possible to use the same model file / textures multiple times.
It might also be related to: https://www.ee2.eu/help/#blackunits
But it should be fixed in version 155011+ which was released ~2 years ago.

Thanks, I will try this way. Indeed I have the same model of horse in 4 colours (black, dark brown, light brown and white) and I would like to see all them at once in the game with correct uv textures!!

Thank you Leader, but I have unchecked both directX 9 and high detail on settings in models and in animations and the problem persist (((

The question is, what version of UP1.5 for Developers do you use at the moment?

Mona meant this: https://www.ee2.eu/patch/developers/

Mods or other things dont use the Official Patch with the new ingame stuff like scenarios, units or campaigns.

Hm...
Rename the Model and and add the other texture to there. Its simple, but i think that work. I maintain, that every unit in EE2 has a own model.
