[Done] terrain example 5.07b x64

[idle]

There's appears to be a problem with the blending. ubuntu 12.04 x64 Hd6670

edit
if the example doesn't run at all
sudo apt-get install nvidia-cg-toolkit

if anyone else should get the display result

Install imagemagick

sudo apt-get install imagemagick

Create this script to convert the whole nvidia dir:
and save it as convertsh under /purebasic/examples/3d/Data/Textures/nvidia

Code: Select all

for file in *.dds
do
    convert "$file" "$(basename "$file" .dds).png"
done

Then in the source code, replace the .dds with .png, and remove all the .Dat files in the texture Dir (or change the terrain cache name in the code)

Seems like you are not the only one with this strange case. Dunno if it's an ATI issue or CG one.. http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic. ... 7&p=470878

A while ago I looked at the terrain plugin in the ogre sdk and had the same sort of result.
so maybe it's not a PB bug after all.

In another post http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=69216: he suggests to convert the DDS texture to PNG, could you give it try (dds are found in the Texture/nvidia folder)

I was just reading that

but it might be a depth issue, I'm using dss in the ocean demo from the sdk and it works fine!

Tried changing the DDS to png, it still had the same result

[Fred]

Too bad, thanks for testing

[Fred]

I just tested on an old linux machine which had the issue, and converting the texture to png worked, after having deleted the terrain cache found in Data/Texture/*.Dat

[idle]

can you zip and send me the png's, pm'd you address!

[Fred]

Install imagemagick (apt_get install imagemagick) and use this script to convert the whole nvidia dir:

Code: Select all

for file in *.dds
do
    convert "$file" "$(basename "$file" .dds).png"
done

Then in the source code, replace the .dds with .png, and remove all .Dat in texture dir (or change the terrain cache name in the code). It did the trick here.

success!
