Hello all,

Let me briefly say that I recently bought MP 4 and when I placed the characters into the editor with full shaders on they looked fine but in test game they don't - they're completely black. When I turn full shaders off they all look fine - the texture appears correctly. Why this is I don't know, because none of them have shader maps. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you,

dont know, but if they have no shader maps, i would say "create shader maps." and try.^^

some shaders use D/D2 maps to get done, some need the shader maps, mostly the newer bond-shaders. mp4 is simply too old for this. but look into your tgc-account if there are any updates for this mp.

other one: see if the fpi-attached shader-path is still there.

Maho76, you nailed it on the head!

Just erase the file path in the "effect" line of the FPE of the character and it's all done!

Thanks guys!
