track_cube.dds

copied the isi track_cube.dds into my maps folder but im getting an illegal tex map size error when trying to export. It is the 1536 x 256 original file. What am I missing here?

Did you accidently re-save the cube map as a 2d texture instead of cube map?

I'm still using the identical ISI cube map from rF1 days and neither the sim nor the plugins complain.

I think there's a checkbox in the gtex to tell it that its a cubemap. Sorry, I don't have a computer in front of me so I can't check it out myself atm.

There isn't one as far as I can see. If you set the shader to one which includes a cube map stage, it's set automatically.
Doug, perhaps you accidentally tried to assign a cube map to a regular texture stage (for which 1536 would be an illegal size)?

so for stage 7 of the realroad material, what texture are you using? I just assumed it was that since its the only cube map I saw in the mod files.

You can use any texture for stage 7. It gets replaced with the REFLECTEDENV. Just make sure to check "live mapper".

ah, that explains it then, thanks.

Yeah, I guess that was just what I was thinking of. Like I said, I didn't have 3dsmax in front of me to double-check. Sorry for the misinformation.
