Hi. I'm having trouble with my map:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
I added FOILAGE and edited my PRP file but it comes up as boxes ingame. Here's my PRP file:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Layer(0)
{
SpreadFactor(0.1);
Mesh()
{
GrassPatch("nab_prop_grass.odf", 50);
File("editor_grasspatch.msh", 50);
Frequency(100);
Scale(1);
Stiffness(0.0);
}
}

Layer(1)
{
SpreadFactor(0.4);
Mesh()
{
File("end_prop_fern5.msh", 30);
Frequency(20);
Scale(1);
Stiffness(0.0);
CollisionSound("foliage_collision");
ColorVariation(0.2);
}

Mesh()
{
File("end_prop_treeclump_1.msh", 50);
Frequency(80);
Scale(1);
Stiffness(0.0);
CollisionSound("foliage_collision");
ColorVariation(0.2);
}
}

TreeLine()
{
Path("jungle1")
{
Distance(28);
BorderOdf("end_prop_treebill.odf");
}
}
In ZE I set the layer to be 0 when I splashed the foilage. Any ideas fellow Gametoasters?
Thanks!

Make sure end_prop_fern5.msh and end_prop_treeclump_1.msh are in your world's MSH folder. Open both of those files up in Notepad or a hex editor and search for the .tgas they call for. Find those .tgas in the assets (worlds\END\msh) and copy and paste them over to your world's MSH folder. If all of those files are already in your msh folder, then I have no idea what else is going on.

Well I copied the whole of the END folder's files over (mshs, tgas, odfs) and still nothing.
Should I just have bushes? I don't really want treeclumps, I just copied from the docs.

Rather than just trying to do a blanket fix, you could try to make an effort and actually do as he suggests.

Have you done this? Do it, and then make sure you have all of the tgas you need (Check the world1 folder as well as the msh and msh/pc folders for missing tgas)

You know what, forget this. FOILAGE is too hassling. All I wanted was some simple grass but this is just...

You're never going to get anything done with that kind of attitude.

In fact, the documentation that comes with the modtools tells you how to do foliage. It's not a tough tutorial if you just start fresh and follow it step-by-step.

Yes sirs, but I read the tut over and over and I understood, but now it doesn't seem to be working...

"Not working" isn't very descriptive.

Oh, yes, I have, I made sure I did that earlier on. I have everything from the MSH and the MSH/PC folder from END in my msh folder.
