No Vehicle Taillights

[chris1384]

Hi there! For a while I have this strange issue with my taillights shader. I tried using a different texture but it seems it doesn't show up (it's black) and it stays like that even if the taillights resource is restarted or stopped. Is there a way I could fix it? Thanks.

Clientside

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, function()
local shader1 = dxCreateShader("texreplace.fx")
local lightsoff = dxCreateTexture("vehiclelights128.png")
engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture(shader1,"vehiclelights128")
dxSetShaderValue(shader1, "gTexture", "vehiclelights128")

local shader2 = dxCreateShader("texreplace.fx")
local lightson = dxCreateTexture("vehiclelightson128.png")
engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture(shader2,"vehiclelightson128") 
dxSetShaderValue(shader2, "gTexture", lightson)
end)

Shader

texture gTexture;
technique TexReplace
{
	pass P0
	{
		Texture[0] = gTexture;
	}
}

  engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture(shader1,"vehiclelights128")
  dxSetShaderValue(shader1, "gTexture", lightsoff)

  local shader2 = dxCreateShader("texreplace.fx")
  local lightson = dxCreateTexture("vehiclelightson128.png")
  engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture(shader2,"vehiclelightson128")

end)

Try this and make sure that the paths for the textures in the script are correct. Also, did you add the textures in the meta file? What does the debugscript say?

[chris1384]

Yes I added the textures to meta, also the debugscript shows nothing.

Maybe it has to do with the modded vehicles but I'm not sure..

[Dzsozi (h03)]

Check the modded vehicle's txd file if it has any light textures and replace them as well.

If the modded vehicles txd has any light files delete them, having vehiclelightson128/vehiclelights128.png in a vehicles txd file will cause it go black.
