Incorrect bump maps?

Black chequerboards on displacements. Incorrect bump maps

Dear all,

I am still getting odd black check patterns on some textures. Im using Valve's blendrockgroundwall004 and the ground blend is showing as back squares.

This is the vmt.

"WorldVertexTransition"
{
"$basetexture" "Nature/dirtground006"
"$basetexture2" "Nature/rockground002"
"%tooltexture" "Nature/blendrockground001_tooltexture"
"$bumpmap" "Nature/dirtground006_height-ssbump"
"$bumpmap2" "Nature/rockground002_height-ssbump"
"$blendmodulatetexture" "Nature/dirtground003_blendmask"
"%keywords" "tf"
"$ssbump" "1"
"$surfaceprop" "dirt"


}

Can anyone see anything wrong?

Grr. This is just annoying.

Has anyone got any idea why this texture is showing black squares? Where do I even start looking?

Where do I even start looking?

map leaks?

map leaks?

Nope sorry, no leaks. It's just displacements with this blend of textures. All other texturs are fine, so I'm guessing there is something wrong with the vmt (above) or my install (already tried verifying caches etc). But thanks for the reply.

Quite a few of the bend textures have an incorrect filename for the bump map inside the .vmt file. Best way to fix it is to extract the .vmt file with GFCscrape, rename it, and replace the incorrect filename with the correct one.

You can find the correct file just by searching the texture names for something similar to the bad name inside GRFscrape.

Many thanks, Thats fixed it.

Here's the correct VMT.

"WorldVertexTransition"
{
"$basetexture" "Nature/rockwall004"
"$basetexture2" "Nature/rockground001"
"%tooltexture" "Nature/blendrockgroundwall004_tooltexture"
"$bumpmap" "Nature/rockwall004_bump-ssbump"
"$bumpmap2" "Nature/rockground001_height-ssbump"
"$ssbump" "1"
"%keywords" "tf"
"$surfaceprop" "dirt"


}

Had the same issue, just used another texture. Weird though, that Valve didn't fix them and left these textures in.
