Title: TEXTURE PROBLEMS
Post by: adam.ni on 28 Sep 2003, 16:38:17

I have problems trying to use textures(doing it on o2light).  I am making my very first addon a crate but after doin everything for the crate model prior to texturing is fine its when i try to finish one face by pressing B at the end of texturing the first face.  An error message comes up which says this

"Background Mapping Error-maybe invalid mapping region specified or no texture is selected"

Could someone please give me some feedback as a soloution to this problem.

O2 is an incredibly unforgiving program that borders on sadistic...

Did you still have the faces selected which you wished to map?  It's easy to unselect them when figiting with resizing.

Also, I may be wrong, but I think there's a bug where once you unload a previously loaded texture, it won't recognize that any new textures have been loaded until you close, reopen the program.
