dod_snowcity_b4 texture problems

The author of this map isn't listed, so it's kind of hard to get in-touch with him. But there's a problem with the textures.

The author has referenced official dodmod wads (like glider and kalt), but the team has been trimming out unused textures and bit by bit, the map loses a texture and is replaced by the default black-purple checkerboard pattern.

Does anybody have an idea of how this could be fixed (without replacing with the old wad files that are very large and screw up the new versions of the official maps)?

(snowcity can be found @ http://www.dayofdefeatmaps.tk/)

WARNING: texture lump "sandbags1" not found
WARNING: texture lump "fd_vmi_mz11" not found

there's a 3rd one, but i forget which wad it was in, and I've replaced it in the past.

What i'm thinking, is that I can track down these textures that are missing and put them in some outdated wad that's small and won't be overwritten... like hlbasics.wad

I think you may be able to ripent a new small .wad into the map and place all the old textures in there.

The author of this map resides in Japan. About a month ago I sent him an e-mail regarding the texture problems. I haven't heard back . . .

Well - you could edit the wad file yourself - just place the missing textures into the correct wad - since HL reports it can't find them there obviously aren't any other textures with the same name in the official wads, so it wouldn't screw up anything ...

Problem with this solution is that it's no good if you want other to be able to use the map with all textures in place (ie - offer the map as a download for your site/server) everyone would then either have to dl the fixed wad, or manually edit the wad using wally themselves ... :rolleyes:

I'm going to try putting them in hlbasics.wad

Thanks for the work Gorb.

hi all.

I found the map currently regarded as having erased.
This is before patrolled with the Japanese server.
The Texture is also Fixed.

I made you trouble.
It is glad if I have you enjoy myself now.

Good Bye
