Langerd Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I know that the shaderlist is made in the good way because the fog works ... but water and lava doesnt work :/ I am as classic ... Jesus walking on the water brush...How to fix that? ... It happend after i install the gtkradiant 1.6.4 ... and when i came back compiling my map in the older one (which i was using whole time) it didnt work...I checked that the shaderlist was changed ... And now it doesnt work at all.. help

Now i will check the lava . It is strange because .. before the water and lava worked but with NORMAL Caulk not caulk_water and caulk_lava.O.o This is strange... that is why it didint work.
Ramikad Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 NORMAL Caulk not caulk_water and caulk_lava. That's weird, normal caulk is supposed to be solid. Langerd likes this
Langerd Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 That's weird, normal caulk is supposed to be solid.Yep but it worked before. But not now XD So i used the option that Asgarath83 said and voila! It works
ensiform Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 You should not be using caulk on the other liquid surfaces, regardless if it appeared to work before. The compiler will randomly pick a face that the contents of are used, its not set which one is used all the time. It's not really random but it isn't always the same face that gets looked at between either the ordering from saving .map file and or something compiler does. Your best bet is actually a nodraw water and a nodraw lava. They may have to be created for your map but that's the safest way to ensure all sides are the correct contents.

Mmm, that's explain this weird issue i got sometime with water compiling, on the sides of water brushes, sometime i get some strange issue, other times the water \ lava is not... water... just is trans. Nodraw shader... good to now. well, i was based on rich diesal mapcrafting tutorial. : \ i not know this trick.many thanks.
ensiform Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Not the regular nodraw shader, that will cause same issue.
Asgarath83 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Not the regular nodraw shader, that will cause same issue.So, a custom water shader with nodraw as surfaceparm. o_o
ensiform Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 The water one *might* be included as common/nodraw_water but you'd have to make one for lava if you really think you need it for connecting lava tunnels. Otherwise for lava it really doesn't matter if the lava box sticks out of the walls. Asgarath83 likes this
