patrickm28 Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 I am currently experiencing a problem in certain mods where the textures are very distorted. This only happens in certain mods, and doesn't have an effect on gameplay. When I look at the vehicles from the normal camera view, it appears as if the texture files have been rotated. If I zoom in on the vehicle, however the texture is fixed (I discovered this in the Wegberg mod which changes the camera boundaries). If any one has any suggestions, please feel free to leave them below. FYI: I have an Intel Graphics Card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPPFAN134 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 I seem to be having the same problem... It's been happening more frequently with newer mods (like West Coast for example) Some units (like the Tahoe) are fine; but others (like Crown Vics) are affected...

MikeyPI Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 looks to me like it is the alpha reflections your guys cards cannot do correctly may be to blame, disabling the alphas on the textures or in the editor on the prototypes of the vehicles that are offending themselves may resolve the issue.

OPPFAN134 Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 I just checked, and the alphas are already off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 They may not be on the textures themselves, you may have to open the textures and delete the alpha channel directly, the fact that some things on the vehicles appear correctly but not the bodywork leads me to believe that it is probably related to the alpha channel. You may have to load the texture in a paint program and manually delete the alpha channels.. The other possibility is the format the textures are saved in isnt rendering on ur card.

OPPFAN134 Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 How do I delete the alpha channel on the textures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Depends on the program you have unfortunately, an easy way would be to change the texture format to .bmp (BMP cannot have alpha channels), to do that open the texture in your paint program and save it as a bitmap, then re-open the BMP and save it as the original file format... PNG/DDS whatever it was originally and it should remove the alpha channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPPFAN134 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 I tried that with the PNG files in the Models folder. Didn't work; should it be in a different folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 The engine to the top-left in your image appears to me normal, the one below it does not, my best guess would be that there is something different in the texture files causing that one to appear right and the others not, alpha reflections is all that I can think of.. Note that on the vehicles the wheels appear normal, the same is true of other parts you would not want to reflect... I believe I am correct in the cause of the issue... You could try saving them as a BMP format, opening the v3o files and changing the texture it references from .png to .bmp using notepad on one of them that does not appear correctly.. BMP doesnt support alpha channels so it should remove the alpha channel from the skin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastyBill88 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Have you tried turning the graphic setting down to low in the settings menu while in game to see if that fixes it? I know that with my intel graphics on my laptop I get problems on high settings where the vehicles/personnel are shiny, etc. Just a thought, if it doesn't work then I have no idea...

OPPFAN134 Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Been away from the computer for a few days... I did manage to fix it the way that Mikey PI had suggested. I needed to download a file converter in order for it to work though. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
