Ahhh my old friend Tpaint. Where did I go wrong with this thing?
My surrounding terrain got painted just fine. But the actually playing area just got a "dusting" of the texture.
BTW: The "WTF?" Is what I hand painted (no duh) and the same look expected over the whole area.
Also a follow up to my last map.....Yeah I learned about backing up crap. Very important when you are buzzed and talking to people over venty while doing the MSN thing and cruising the web/youtube. BF2 editor does not like this very much and wants your undivided attention when saving your map. At this point it finds itself prone to a murder suicide. Murdering your F*%&$ing map while killing itself and your comp. Anyway it was a fun 20+ hours wasted that I learned a lot from with help from here and the guys at WaW.
