Title: Funny Base Textures
Post by: hkboondoggle on September 04, 2011, 12:58:28 AM
Hey there, just drop by and showing some weird base texture of some of the buildings in my game.
Not sure which dependency is missing in my desktop. If you can identify what the missing files are, please let me know. Thanks.

Hey hkboondoggle

The listed dependency textures for Jestarr's Leather works are:
BSC Textures Vol02
ncd_Railyard Texture Mega-Pack Vol01
jes_EmpireTextures.dat - included

Go to the LEX. Find this building. The links for the textures are in the description.


SimGoobers Claridge is in his Mega Residentials Vol 1 on the LEX. However, all the textures for this home are in SimCity_2.dat so there are no external dependent textures.

The last three homes are al maxis homes. I'll just have a look at "Hendawi Place". And unless it's been re-lotted is also made using textures found in SimCity_2.dat. 

Good Luck

- Jim

Thanks for the reply Jim, yet now things are getting a little bit spooky.
I double checked dependency textures for Jestarr's Leather works, all three files were installed:

BSC Textures Vol 02.dat (10,265KB) & jes_EmpireLeatherTextures.dat (9KB) located at C:\Users\hkboondoggle\Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins\BSC\BSC Textures;

Railyard Texture Mega-Pack Vol 102.dat (4,131KB) [Rail Yard and Spur Textures, Mega-pack 1 VERSION 1.02] located under C:\Users\hkboondoggle\Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins\Dependency - Props & Texture

And concerning other buildings, well I'm kinda puzzled now. Indeed most maxis default lots have this particular texture issue. Maybe there's something wrong within my SimCity_2.dat?

Have you checked your graphics settings? if your lot/building setting are set to "low" it won't  show a lot of textures.
I have simcity settings set to low to check and the lots look the same like the ones you're showing

Thanks for tip Elydion, the graphics settings do actually affect base texture of the building. Nice one!  :thumbsup:

So the only remaining problem is the 'transparent' ground of Jestarr's Leather works.
