Hi Everyone

Whenever I try to use env_cubemap on any of my textures to make them shiny all it does is take select textures and make them pink. What gives? Help would be most appreciated.

thanks

I don't believe env_cubemap support has been added yet. I think you have to wait for the full sdk to be released to use them. Look at the front page of the Collective and read the news about it: collective.valve-erc.com

I get this in the game a lot of the time (CSS), and I dont think its cube map related, just a funky random error that occurs in source. [addsig]

but the env_cubemap doesn't work anyway so i think it's that in this case.

maybe it occurs when you're trying to use an entety that is not yet supported???

There is no such thing as "random" when talking about any type of technology. Not to mention when speaking about a software error or bug. [addsig]

"The upcoming release will include Half-Life 2 mapping support and additional sample maps, support for cubemaps, and the mod source code."

The purple-black texture was already seen in HL, it just indicates a missing texture. Run a map with CS: S textures in HL2 and you'll see those textures are then purple-black chess pattern too. Same applies to non-existing bump-maps.

Hi, i know the error you got. try typing "buildcubemaps" in the console after loading the map, then restart it..should do it.

Yes, the cubemaps need to be adapted to the map. Typing buildcubemaps in console will add the data to the bsp so you only need to do it once per compile. [addsig]
