Convert exported textures into *.paa files

[Niedobity 0]

I have a problem, I can not check the option "Convert exported textures into *.paa files" when generating ground textures

[soapboxsubmarine 0]

don't think you need to..?

[Funkdoc 46]

yes i think we need. in the rvmat files in "DZ\worlds\chernarusplus\data\layers" are  *.paa files refernced, for the satellite texture and the mask. so we should make this also in this way for our own map.

I have tried to use the tool ImageToPAA located in the Dayz tools\Bin directory. i converted the pile of *.png (tiled by Terrain builder using the mapframe->processing->Generate Layers function) to .paa files.

But Dayz -buldozer runs this without texturing the  ground. its simply balck. declared surfaces seems to work without a problem.

Seems to be a configuration problem. i will have a look at it today.

You cannot see the ground textures and this is the effect.

In TB with A3 Tools everything is good, generates and shows sat image, I turn on TB with DayZ Tools and it does not work.

[Funkdoc 46]

it looks like daysz_x64.exe having problems in any way handle LCO, or it is a config problem... maybe devs can help out.

I noticed that after being generated in TB with A3 Tools (I saved from project). The option "Converted textures into *. Files" in TB from DayZ Tools is unlocked. After regeneration sat image is not shown.... A few days ago I tried to solve this problem, I even sent a photo for a friend, I tried in the same way only that it does not work...

i believe its a DZ buldozer related problem

use the  imageToPaaGUI.exe   in the dayz tools  point to folder  where you wish the files to be generated

I meant that it does not show a sat image, It's black everywhere.

So you have  now generated PAA files and it  is now not showing the  sat as above ?

Check bulldozer .rpt  log  it will mention if there is a path problem  or cannot load _x  etc

the individual satellite  paaa files  look ok when you  open them  ? 

 

[Niedobity 0]

Yes, they look good

[ofp2 9]

well if there is no errors  , i think maybe its unsaved  Pew  file and loading wrong  one  or possibly Nvidia shader problem 

 lets see  p_0004_012... rvmat ?

Hmm  ambient and Diffuse values are something  i don1t normally see   but i don`t think its the problem here  .possibly a setting in buldozer.cfg  

no errors is hard to find problem :) 

 

Upload a satelite file from your layers folder an i will try here on my  map

@ofp2 as i can remember, u also had a problem with no textures of your sat img. just black ground... did u solve your problem? or why do you speculating around here
