The terrain is fine up until we try to publish and test ingame. Ingame the ground is pink.. water is fine.. and the cliff sides are black.
The other thing is that the textures look fine for focke in his version and what he sees in game.. but for me.. no matter how many restarts.. comp or editor.. no matter how many republishes... or backups redone of that map... it is still messed up for me.. AFTER a recent patch update for 1.5.
No need to get offensive. It was meant to be a joke.
Honestly, whats the point of this? There was a patch for the 1.5 BETA that broke your terrain, thats obviously a bug caused by the sc2 engine. What should we do about it? Just make a bug report, theyll fix this issue.
I think I was on a streak of people apart of projects making their teams look bad. Had a member on my own team who "trolled" a diplomacy thread, meanwhile I'm working on a diplo map. The troller meant it as a joke but there was no way of knowing when u read his thread.
Hi Robert, As with all Blizzard Entertainment betas and test versions of our products we do not provide any type of support through customer service. we can only support retail or completed copies.For help will any of our betas we suggest that you post on the beta forums as this is the only way to pass the information to our development team so they know what issues are coming up and to fix before the game is released.If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to respond, or call our Billing department directly at 1-800-592-5499 - Australian Customers: 1-800-041-378 and one of our representatives will be happy to assist you, or check our online support site at:http://www.blizzard.com/support
AND here is the thread I posted in the beta bug forums:
Purpleish is just the way SC2 renders stuff if the textures seem to be missing or inaccesible. If it's pink then I have no idea :P
Cliff borders = black = cliffs aren't accesible, neither the model nor the texture.
No textures rendering + non existent cliffs. Yep, sounds like when I was trying to crack the t3height format :P
Check if you have the Assets MPQ open, either can be the editor that's messing up with the file access permissions, or another program such as a third party editor or an MPQ editor (this could be the same reason why sc2 map editor won't open if you have the mpqs open with an mpq editor).
If it's not that I'm sure a reinstall would fix it. Could easily be that the engine got its settings messed up. I can't remember the actual commands to disable/enable texture rendering.
Units, doodads, and water, are untouched also.. they appear just as they should. As for the actual tint of the color, I think it can change from person to persen and depends on screen settings. To me it is pink, the same pink u get when importing models and textures but the textures dnt set correctly.
as for all that mpq terminology. "Check if you have the Assets MPQ open, either can be the editor that's messing up with the file access permissions, or another program such as a third party editor or an MPQ editor (this could be the same reason why sc2 map editor won't open if you have the mpqs open with an mpq editor).".. very confusing/intimidating. Messing with that stuff, and making mistakes within that area is dangerous I think. Secondly, my understanding of the files, MPQ related, is slim to none..
If you don't know then you probably have neither open :P
Best guess is try reinstalling by now, if that doesn't fix it then it's an sc2 bug. It cannot be drivers or graphics card as it displays units correctly.
Do you get any textures not found errors when starting the editor?
no error messages displayed and I have reinstalled twice. Thanks for your help I will share this link with the other threads I have created for this issue.
As a small note, you have "view terrain" enabled under view functions, right? It could be that you"re viewing a black non-terrain that's messed up. Not ideal either, but perhaps a different problem.
nope. I actually just messed with all the view setting.. preferences etc.. still pink. I saw something on bnet saying that the patch was an "environmental" update.
Just hope they get back to me soon. I will call support tomorrow.
Low quality shader results in pink terrain on Geforce 9300M GS graphics card. Setting it to medium or higher fixes this. This applies to the latest 1.5 patch released on the 13th of July.
me and FockeWolf are working on a map.

Is it pink or more like purpleish shades?

Just out of curiosity, what do units look like?

so first things first..
How do I check if the Assets MPQ is open?
