View Full Version : I think I've found some kind of strange bug in the Sandbox.

I placed some lava texture on my map, and then without knowing it, my surface texture disappeared! I have tried to generate a new surface texture, but that didn't do anything.. So how can I get my surface texture back? Is this a bug or something?

For those who are wondering what I'm talking about, check this out:

On the Rollup bar, click "Brush", then "Buildings", "m11" and choose "lava".. VOIL!! The surface texture disappears!! http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/1072.gif
What's happening??

I've had that Lava problem causing my surface texture to vanish. Well actually it didn't completely vanish, it became slightly see-through! I tried several things to rectify the problem but nothing worked. I just had to close the editor and restart from the last time I saved! Lucky I save my work very often otherwise I would have been really pissed.

Unfortunate for me, I saved my map after I did that lava-thingy.. Hmmmm.. maybe I'll do a massive indoors-level instead?

D33dub, you're absolutely right about that transparency. I hope someone comes up with a solution to this problem..

Yeah, I ran into this problem. But the fix is very easy (Atleast for me). After you place the object, Delete it, Save your map, Close sandbox, Re-open and load. Fixed! (for me)

ive had a problem like this before, and i couldnt get my textures back. I reloaded the map, same thing. I had to start over.

Thats ok though, cuz the map blowed anyway.

I would guess the object itself is bugged, not the editor.

Now I'm more careful about what brushes/materials I play around with. No big deal though if you save your work constantly. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/16x16_smiley-wink.gif
