[Turrican]

Hi

I've a problem with Sky, it looks like this:









In the console:

Do you have any custom level (.pk3) files installed into the game?

Is this a legitimate copy of the game, and not some knock-off?

Just a tip:

you can take JPEG screenshots from the game:

In the console type:

/bind P screenshotJPEG

Push P to take the picture.

can you tell us the name of the map

i may be wrong but tim_km2 might be one of those textures that were never included in the original game and were fixed with an improved shader when you install GTK or qradiant fellas.



textures/skies/tim_km2
{
q3map_lightimage textures/skies/stars_red.tga
qer_editorimage textures/skies/killsky_1.tga
surfaceparm noimpact
surfaceparm nomarks
surfaceparm nolightmap

q3map_sun .5 .37 .19 90 315 40
q3map_surfacelight 80
skyparms - 512 -

{
map textures/skies/killsky_1.tga
tcMod scroll 0.05 .1
tcMod scale 2 2
depthWrite
}
{
map textures/skies/killsky_2.tga
blendfunc GL_ONE GL_ONE
tcMod scroll 0.05 0.06
tcMod scale 3 2
}
}

I'm pretty sure that's Tourney3

[blood.angel]

It is tourney 3, the shader is in pak0.pk3

Try to manually copy pak0.pk3 from the CD to your baseq3 folder. A friend had a similar problem but with sounds, and he copied it over and it worked fine.

ok, thx for the answers :icon31:


First, this is a legitimate copy of the game, bought around 2000

Yes,i've installed some custom Paks

This Sky-missing error is in every map, except 2 or 3 if i remember correctly

the map is Q3DM1

In the map Q3DM17 i can see the sky

And, Bacon thanks for the tip with p (to make a screenshot)
I didn't know that :icon25:



bloodangel: I've done that, but nothing changed :icon23:

[axbaby]

those custom pak's are the problem .. some map builder has a texture or shader with the same name or an error in the shader as the default quake3 paks and it's being used instead of the default texture or shader.

backup and remove a few paks and test till you find the offending pak "pk3" file.

[Turrican]

@ axbaby

I've removed the paks, and now i can see the sky in every map




Thank you very much
