[SOLVED] Custom Map has light, after noggit it's gone?
« on: February 09, 2016, 07:36:25 pm »
Edit: Finally found something (yeah, same page as this <_<) and creating adt's with taliis caused this. Well, it's working now. Yay.
Leaving original message in-case anyone has the same issue, and is as dumb as me.


Hey,

For some reason whenever I create a custom map and zone it has light. The default grass is nice and colored and I can see something.

However, the moment I add ANYTHING to it on Noggit it all turns black:
Code: [Select]

Is there something I overlooked? I did add a skybox to it in the Lights.dbc, but I'm still somewhat confused why it turns black. I tried searching but nobody had the same issue.

What am I doing wrong ;__; It didn't used to do this.  For reference, I followed this guide (along with older ones) to creating the zone:

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=26

It works.. until I save anything(even just a m2)  to the map or make modifications :x

I hope someone has.. something to me with this issue. Thanks already in advance!

Just an advice for future edits, simply don't use Taliis. All things it can do can be done better by newer tools. Its horribly outdated.

Yeah, I had to learn it the hard way. But I suppose that's the best way of learning.

What other tools are better than using Taliis, though? I used the sample map provided by ADTAdder, but I assume there are others? And WDT creation, are there better ones than Taliis for that?

Been trying to add new floor texutres, but they don't seem to want to add them usable. *shrug*

There's GruulMeWDT or ZoneMasher for WDTs and ZoneMasher with ADTAdder can handle ADTs well. DBCs can be edited reliably with MyDBCEditor, but there are few which can't be opened by that app, so other options need to be used in such situations (Taliis can work in such situations sometimes).

Should contain all tools, but for some reason is GruulMe missing. Here is mine:
