Visability problem on Paine Island (2part prob)

**rlmergeuser** · 11-02-2012

I decided to give track making another bash but have hit a problem on 10 mins into the build

1st prob

Im building in the "Smugglers field" area along the airstrip and i have placed about 20 of the "warehouse floors" together, from the "buildings" selection. I want to use the area selector to select all of these floors and group them toghter, however when i zoom out, the individual floors will dissapear one by one and when i have reached a viewable distance to select the lot - theyve all dissapeared??

I havnt played with the enviorment settings, so the view/object view distance is still at max ( i have checked )

The pre-laid objects do remain such as the building, mountains and jet heads, but some of the jet heads are floating in mid air?( i have touched them )

Can i do anything to fix this or is this a bug in the game?

pictures posted start zoomed in and slowly moving out ... (soz i cant figure out how to get the pics to appear in this post??)

2nd prob

when i place one of the "warehouse floors" going into the ground, on one side there is a noticiable gap at the bottom when on the other there is not? .... what ever i do i cannot get rid of this gap? is there something im missing or is this a bug again?

that 2nd problem you have is just an error with the shadow mapping, not much can be done, could try changing the suns position or place an object along the light gap.

but that 1st problem you have is quite annoying, several of the new objects have some kind of problem, do the same with the underside of the prime plane version 4 and you'll see texture map issues with the reflected light when it hits level of detail 2 but it corrects at 3 onward :/, even some of the road underpass pieces error at LOD2 now, losing polygons from the mesh!

Thanks for the reply dasraiser,

Is the fix going to be, not to use certain parts from the intventory avalible??

Looks like thats the end of my track building days then

Why don't you just not move that far away from them and select them in smaller parts, you don't have to be able to see them all on the screen to select them all, just move the area selector along the row of objects pressing A every few seconds.

Honest answer ... i cant be arsed anymore as it just makes building even longer ...

Really tho, i shouldnt have to .... i appreciate the reply fella, but this support section is a joke .... idk why RL bothers putting the section up if they cant be bothered to try and resolve probs?

I dont know why you keep bothering with this game, it really does seem to do nothing but infuriate ya.
And I didnt mean that in a snarky, bitey way. I am honest with that statement. You do not seem happy with trials evolution at all. There are a lot of other choices out there.

**rlmergeuser** · 11-07-2012

yeh i can see where ure coming from, but i do like this game .... a hell of a lot!!

ve been a fan of the trials series for a while and will continue to be).

The game itself is amazing, but im one of the few that has a lot of problems with it, im only trying to get it working as best as i can. Other forums have tried to help but all point out the obvious and tell me to try and get it resolved within the RL forums ..... which is y i have the ar****le as the "only" peeps that can answer the questions i have ...... dont??

At the end of the day, if its not fixable i would prefer it if they could advise that, then i can move on and put up with it..... instead posts in the support forum mainly get answered by other Evo users, which is great but there are somethings that they cannot answer.

The irony of the sticky`s in the support forum is that RL ask us to report any problems so they can try and fix them in the future(ie were helping them by taking the time to advise them), where as when we ask RL for support .... 95% of the time u dont get it
