MX Simulator

When opening my track all of my tile maps randomly just turned into this weird gradient color. Even though the actual tile is one solid color.




most of the tiles have been changed into the weird gradients. Even though when opened in photoshop they remain one solid color. Not sure what is going on here. it remains like this even when restarting the game and re saving the track. Has anyone ever had this problem?

wat. I've never seen this issue occur before. I've had some weird shapes form on the map but never have I seen a gradient tilemap in the editor show up unwillingly. You think it could be something wrong with your tileinfo file and reading the image file incorrectly?

honestly have no idea what is going on. The tiles are the ones used for the 19 nationals so I assume they would be read fine. Its kinda giving me eye disease looking at this all the time though.

If you use the same texture for a decal or object does it get the same bug on the decal/object?

Yup, just the sand.ppm into a decal that is shown in the Photoshop image above. As you can see the ppm is a solid color.

result is a gradient again.

Would you mind sending me the files over discord so I can take a look?

If you could post the file I'd like a look as well.

didnt post the link nice

Try scaling it up to 16x16. There's some stuff in the mipmap generation and software texturing that might be confused by a 2x2 file.

I'm not having any luck reproducing it but definitely try scaling up. 16x16 is only 768 bytes so it's no big deal memory wise.

We also get that error with our tilemaps. However it only seems to only happen like 10% of the time. Normally it looks fine, if it doesn't, we just restart the game to fix it.

yup I just scaled them up and the problem stopped. its still super interesting because It just changed out of no where. I wonder if its a hardware specific problem.

But thank you!

Yeah that's interesting. Ive restarted my game multiple times but it didn't seem to fix the problem.
