For some reason i got this weird texture error or missing texture on the bottom of the water texture. It looks normal on top but its missing the texture on the bottom. Plus the water fog is not there either. This is the dod_anzio water texture 001 i believe.

hummm ... never used the texture but check the console for error messages.

Are other water textures OK?

dod_lutte look a bit like the old dod_snowtown :kitty:

Yeah now i am using a different water texture but people cant see the water but knows its there because when we shoot it it splashes but all we see is the sea floor.

yeah i did that.

what happens is i can see the water but no one else can.

is it because i havent built cubemaps or placed any cubemaps.

EDIT: OFF TOPIC: hey tx, our forums are down. Do you know why?

you dont need cubemaps to make water work, generally the checkers mean they dont have the texture you are useing.

no, I dont know why your forums are down

Hmm.. for me i placed the water texture only on the top, i have a water lod control entity, but no cubemaps. And the thing is i am the only one who can see the water but no one else can. They just see the river bed but when they shoot at it they still se splashes and when they are under water they see the underwater fog and they can swim.

The anzio water doesnt have a bottom water texture for it. If you look in Anzio you never see the bottom of the water as its always shallow so they never made one.

Ok. Well i am using a whole new water texture now and yes this is a compiled map. The top water texture is just clear. This is the anzio water texture a new one that does have the bottom texture.

All my clan mates can see the water fog and the bottom water texture but they cant see the top or the surface water texture. Its just clear to them but when they shoot their it splashes.
