stg58fal Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I want to put a lake (only part of which will be in the playable area) and a few creeks/small rivers into a project I'm working on. When I fool around with the land and water heights, it puts a huge black square over everything if the water height is less than -100000 or so (land height is -2048 like all the tutorials say to do, which is the same as the Capital Wasteland), so I decided to use placeable water instead. Big mistake, that. Worked fine when I was experimenting with putting a small pond on another part of the map, but when I scaled the pieces up to make the lake, after placing a few I got a black square. Then GECK started crashing so much I would save every time I duplicated or placed a piece. I've had black squares show up before, and disappear when I restarted my system, so I tried that. Didn't work. Finally I just deleted all the water pieces. I figure I'll put off adding the water for now. Plenty of other stuff that needs to be done anyway. So what am I doing wrong? And how do I correct it and still get the water on the map? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostone1993 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 hmm, is this a new world space, could be you have specified the texture for the water, but you could have corupted your mod perhapes, it can be a number of things, were you zoomed out a bit?, was the sky on ?

stg58fal Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yes, it's a new worldspace. I didn't have a specified texture for water at the time (could that maybe be the rpoblem?). Sky was not turned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
