Custom maps missing textures

[Lumpenmann]

Im having some issues with a few custom maps.
F.e. Silent hill shows nothing but pink black textures and a lot fo ERROR objects.

The map used to work before is there any way to evaluate whats causing it?

Btw, ive verified my gamefiles already. Nothign missing.

Maybe its because you don´t have CSS
L4d2 works in the same manner as garry´s mod
YOU need CSS to be able to see models & textures!
Counter strike source can be downloaded & purchased through HERE:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/240/CounterStrike_Source/
If that doesn´t fix the issue,
Maybe its because you´re missing out other source game in the l4d2 mounted section

as "Typical" linked, usually all you need is what we call a "missing content fix".

but it depends on what the maps are you are playing.
there was a time during Cold Stream's development content had to be removed.
as well as Valve forgot some content when they ported over the first Left 4 Dead's content.

the fix that was linked was a version I made simply combining everything.
it's also the one that actually works and restores content actually missing.

any others i wouldn't trust because who uploaded them has their own definition.
they also require extra steps and kind of defeats the point of the workshop and mods.

most of the time when it comes to Left 4 Dead all content should already be included.
unless it's some kind of "port" then it's possible the author forgot to include them.
for example, Half-Life ports would need content from the Half-Life games.
but you don't need to buy and install extra Source games unless it's Garry's Mod.

I'm not trying to make this little argument of yours worse, but this is indeed wrong.
Left 4 Dead would already have CSS and HL2 content included where necessary.
The question would be just how much is there, however.
Some ports of CSS and HL2 maps would already have any extra content included.
You really are thinking of Garry's Mod where people need to mount additional content.
This is not only not necessary for Left 4 Dead but also not even possible.

-snip- That is only for GARRY'S MOD

nope its for any valve game really the issue isnt something realated to the game but rather the source of a texture

make it you dont have hl2 installed, l4d2 may have some hl2 assets in l4d2 so you have a clone of these said textures

but if you have something hl2 had and l4d2 did not and then play a custom campaign that uses all half life 2 textures any textrue you did not have because you only had left 4 dead 2 will become error

its mostly knowen for garrys mod as its the most common source game that will have textures from other source games (like half life 2 ep 1 / ep 2 or css / csgo)

so people with these textures makeing a map end up useing css textures into there maks creating a problem for anyone who dose not own the game

this can go for any half life game, counter strike etc its just most common with gmod

the problem is the source of the texture and if for whatever reason you do not have it will cause an error

custom campaigns may have there own textures aswell as part of the map / campaign file them forgetting to add osmething into that addon (may it be some texture) will instantly cause problems

also theres probibly just some ccs textures addon in the workshop wont require to buy a game just for its textures

Thank you guys. Honestly im not sure if downloading css and hl2 had some impact because after i deinstalled it again it did not cause more textures to be missing again.
Maps like Silent Hill Other part of life work now.
On the other hand the map called Chernobyl chapter one still dosnt work properly.

The missing texture fix solved some of the issues but its like im still missing 60% of the textures or so.
Ive installed HL2 and CSS.



Whats strange about this is that i am 100% sure that i didnt have installed css (maybe hl2) back then when ive played those maps without issues.
Is there anything else i can try?

i kinda knew about that but i didnt know that it had an big impact on custom maps, well good thing to know now

it dose mater depending on who actually makes the custom campaigns

the problem is created from the map maker not knowing the source of these textures and then use them

then they dont actually add the css (or whatever game) textures into the campaign file creating that "gmod" texture problem

But then there's the matter of theft isn't there when it comes to this forum's workshop.

There may be some other custom maps or additional texture packs for them to create conflict files so some maps not work correct. Since i have more than 200 custom maps, and my Silent hill works correct, i may give you list what currently i have disabled in addon folder so other may work properly: A forgotten place, fatal fright, Dead destination, DeepPhobia, The Bloody Moors, The Ravine, Unholy ground, Symbiosis textures, Beyond dead, Wild ride, Hl2 textures, Chernobyl, Diescraper redux, Road to f18.
Some of these may have modded weapon or texture that may lead to other custom map not work properly.
What version of Silent hill you have?

[Olik]

Maybe try to change your shader quality in the video settings. I once played a map that only worked whith medium shaders. On both (very) high or low I also had these missing textures

Sounds like a plan, ty.
