Shaders not defined

EwoudCP · Post by **EwoudCP** » Sun Jul 11, 2004 1:57 am

I just followed the tutorial of HEK with the only difference that I used other textures and made a different landscape and all.

Now when I run tool.exe, it first asks me to define a shader type for the material i made "mazs_ground"
I pick number one (shader_enviornment) and I did the same for the other material I made.
But then, after I defined every material (exept +sky), it says "some shaders were not defined" and it stops.

I've tried changing about every material and I even tried to put the material count to 2 (+sky and mazs_ground), but it still gives the same response.

This error is not listed in the tutorial and there is no error file created.

What's wrong and how do I fix it?

Have you tried repeating the command, it works for me.

if you just repeat the command it works, however its better to create you shaders one by one in guerilla (make sure to make bitmaps first)

same here, just redo the command

I redid it, but then it gave me another error.

Then i deleted the material tags (the only tags created) and retried it.

But the error just continues to occur.

I always find it works when you repeat it, try going over your shaders again.

I redit it 5 times in a row. First it said shaders not defined and then it gave me 13 "couldn't update edge # (red)", a "failed to build collision geometry" and a "failed to import collision bsp" error everytime I redid it.

that has nothing to do with your materials. it should have created a wrl file to import into 3ds so you can fix it

The wrl only appears when the second errors occur. It doesn't make a .wrl file when I get the 'no shaders defined'

the shaders were created when you chose option 1 so you don't have to worry about that. to fix the second error you have to import the wrl into 3ds and fix the bad edges.

It worked and I just made my first final version of a map... The only thing to solve is the complete darkness there, but that's something I must find out myself.
