Parented Worldspace landscape texes and scene info broken.

[Rua]

Hi, folks.

 

I have a couple of issues causing me trouble and I haven't found any reference to them on the internet. I think they're straight up bugs in the CK so I'm not sure if anything can be done.

 

1. I don't think the editor window in SE CK is updating the texture load. When I go to the Scene Info window, all textures register as using 0MB. 

This leads me to think that the numbers at the top of the editor window telling us how much memory is left are also way off.

 

2. When I make an external worldspace with a parent world, instead of reproducing the texturing of the parent as it should, the ground textures are all messed up, and even the normals seem to broken, just like the normals on a bad model mesh. In the editor window I can smooth them out, but when I go into the game, they're still showing up black patches.

 

If I go into the Whiterun world with just the Skyrim ESM loaded, it looks the same.

 

I wonder if anyone else can confirm that this is happening to them? If anyone happens to know a fix, I'd be mighty grateful.

 

 

Thanks a lot.

It looks like what happens when you have too many textures listed for that block. You can't have more than 6 per exterior cell. (That includes grass/nograss versions) 

 

Press H to bring up the landscape menu, place your camera view over the land with problems, then press the 'i' key. That'll bring up a new window telling you what textures/how many you've got for that particular cell. Delete the least used (Other than the one you're trying to place) or the least prefered texture. It'll change that black texture into the texture you originally designated it to be. 

 

If you've already done that, well I'm stumped. But for me, that's the only reason black textures have ever shown up on the landscape.

Also, you need to follow your own post (top right) otherwise you won't see people trying to help you.

You're editing and saving the main file?   That's not good.

1. 6 texture limit: Yes, basic stuff, that

 

2. I only have one post to check. I don't need notifications.

 

3. You can't edit an ESM. I don't know what made you think that's what I meant. I was just illustrating that this doesn't only apply to my custom space.

 

If you could just fire up the CK and tell me whether the problem is happening for you also, that would be genuinely helpful.

 

Thanks, anyway.

Sometimes the simplest things get over looked.

 

And the quote I asked about, made it sound weird. Didn't know how you were doing it either. No caffeine yet, so blame that.

 

It isn't happening for me because CK is loaded currently and it's not having that problem. 

 

Sorry I couldn't be helpful.

It's not happening for you. Ok then it's not a bug so maybe I can fix it. Can you confirm that you're looking at an external worldspace attached to a parent?

 

Thanks a lot, mate.
