Vehicles look black

[fr0zt]

Hey, just wondering what I'm doing wrong... I reskinned the ghost, it looks fine when I go right up close to it, but when I'm just a few feet away it looks completely black. I asume that this is something to do with shading, but I have no idea how to fix it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

it might be the multy purpose if you changed that
or look at the min maps

you need to use machinima compainion (LOD remover) it ups ur level of detail and ur xbox's frames go quicker i think. just download it and then apply lod remover to one of your maps

oh also if another skin is to larg it will overlap into the skin you are viewing
so only at close range can you see the skin overlaping

I only want to change the skin of a vehicle, I am only altering shared.map by injecting the new .dds... I don't want to have to change each individual map... Is there any easier way I could fix this, or could it be another problem?

this only affects the skins. i just ameks it so skins dont turn black. just do this on shared.map

I tried machinima compainion but firstly, it didnt work with shared.map, then once I found our i had to patch each individual map, it didnt work, only the cameraman feature worked...

i just applied it to one map, that map also had shared.map in the same directory on my comp, then sent them both over to the box
