Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy

As you can see, the dock texture on the Aeolus' dock is mismapped. I noticed it after glow-pointing and I wanted to point it out as I have no experience with textures though I bet it's more of a UVMapping bug if anything.

Seems okay to me.

Can you explain what's wrong here ?

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy
IIRC in previous versions, the warning labels (yellow and black stripes) looked better than that.

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy
Did a punny detail like this deserve a new thread, whene there are so many un-HTLized ships hanging around ?

Well, yes. This isn't Wikipedia. There's nothing wrong with posting a thread about even a minor issue.

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy
What's wrong is that there are strips of the texture which is applied correctly and there are those black, pure black strips in between which mess up the detail.

Did a punny detail like this deserve a new thread, whene there are so many un-HTLized ships hanging around?
There are no puns here!

and uh, would you rather me make a thread about every damned ship out there that isn't high-poly stating 'this isn't high poly' or actually DOING something by pointing out a texture error?

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy

Take a look between the two, I'm sure you can see the error on the Aeolus.


I hope this is more noticeable.

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy
I'm much more weirded out by the lighting on the protruding rod to the left than the dock texture.

Had--! Fix them both! :)

Re: Weird Aeolus Dock Texture Thingy
I would but if it's a texture issue I can't since I have no experience with textures and if it's a UVmapping issue (more likely) then I'd need the source files to fix any uvmapping error but I still wouldn't be able to convert it.

Also, that second Aeolus picture has no lighting. :)
