Ground is all black in Bronzen doors section (is PS a goth game :P ?)
« on: July 15, 2006, 12:16:37 pm »


It's almost impossible to play, how can I fix this?

It looks the same way here.
Maybe a "relight" would fix it -- no clue. I'll wait for the official client.

By some reasons it is black for Linux users and (I guess) it is the same for Mac users.

Relighting  makes it better, but doesn't fix all the black areas as can be seen on this screenshot.

You're right, Bereror, I'll try to /relight next time I go to the Bronze Doors region.

Try to log in, while your char is on bdroad map (i tested it on bdroad1). When I log in there and go to bronzedoors, the ground is ok. This (and all other lighting/checkerboard isuues) are because textures are not organized well. It is already reported on bugtracker.

Relight probably won't fix it, but I can't check it, because 512MB of ram + 512MB of swap is not enough to relight bronzedoors :(

I don't think people are impatient, but rather confused.

At least I was when I went to the waterfall yesterday. Looked awesome, but between the valley and the waterfall area there was much blackness. I didn't proceed because I wasn't sure it was safe for me.

Have You tried to run updater ? The map was relighted several days ago and the ground looks much better now.

Tried it yesterday before playing since I got a "there are updates" message.

Afterwards (nothing to update), I ran the game again and got the same message.
This time I ignored it and played PS. Then I noticed the "black earth".

Same for me. I updated a couple of times but it didn't solve the problem.

I've tried it again yesterday evening,
this time the script from Xordan came in (ran it) and now I don't have the "you need to update" - message anymore.

It removes a lot of ambience, but I was able to get the black terrain to display normally using the -fullbright setting...

The -relight option fixed it for me.

1. Start PS and log on.
2. Travel to the bronze doors region
3. Log out
4. Start PS with -relight option and log on again
5. Wait! Loading took around 1,5 hours on my system. ( AMD Athlon64 3200+, 1024 MB )
6. Everything should look fine now. Log off again and start PS without -relight

Hope that helps.

Greetings

Thanks, Peeg, that did fix it for me as well, though it took a wee bit longer (1 hour, 45 minutes :) ). Hurrah for the green, green grass!

This isn't a linux specific issue. I get it on my mac.
