Level Design Problem with the grass?

[[SM]TOPSGT]

I have used this MaterialInstanceConstant
" 'ENV_Paris_MAT.Vegetation.Env_Paris_Grass_MIC' " on a published map and a map I am working on. I get an error msg about not compiling and the grass does not show up when played in game and is replaced by the blue and white blocking but is visible in the SDK editor. Suggested alternative or replacement and or work around?

Tasty Youtube for your time.

I suggested to the staff that same thing in the bugs area... they actually just changed it to that yellow brown and green mossy brick texture... yea ... i was using it in my map as well...

I just used the dirt material for now. Might look into getting a grass texture from another source here soon as my transient map sorely needs it lol

I found that this one worked.


Material'Env_Mat_Lib.Vegetation.Env_Grass_Ground_PM'

It does compile without errors and can be seen during game play.

Don't know what I'm doing wrong but this still does not work for me. Can someone test and share?

What would be a great workaround to get the grass texture working?

^ I can't tell exactly to what you are referring, but I think that you mean that you had the Paris grass and tried to replace it and it is not quite working? I had somewhat of the same thing happen. Go to the properties of each mesh and manually remove the rendering line item and replace it with the one you want.

So I come back after some investigating. To be quick, I still can't see the 2 grass textures (I hope people see what I'm talking about).

I got a friend that can see both textures tho, but only if he hosts my map on his server.

I verified cache of KF2 and SDK.

On a map like Hostile Grounds, the grass was missing for everyone, probably because it's still the Paris one I'd guess.

[SM]TOPSGT I will try your tip and see if it fixes it for me. Will continue to do some trying with my friend seeing the texture on a server.

EDIT: I should add I tested the Vegetation Grass on new stuff and it still did not work so far

Just to say that I verified cache of both KF2 and SDK, re-downloaded both, re-applicated both textures on different objects.

Able to see the grass in SDK, preview included, unable to see grass in my map in solo mode and multiplayer.

Also something weird, when I go on the Paris map (where I can see the texture both SDK and in game), if I click the grass texture and "Find in content browser", it redirects me to another texture.
