problems with slick effect

[zgaz]

dont know how but i lost slick effect on some maps, on maps where slick is on flat ground everything is ok, but if there is little angle no slick for me. for example that hapens on maps like frcup30-2 and jan_mucki. is there some console command to fix or...

[<hk>]

Isn't slick a shader thing? Maybe it evaluates the texture parameters on runtime. That would mean you may have accidentally deleted the shaderfile. Shaders can be in other pk3s, too.

dont know bro, im sure im not deleted nothing. have any advice or solution?

and tnx for such a quick reply

weird... like hk says, slick its a shader, or a shader property...
dont know if this gonna work, but maybe you can try whit this:

put it in a notepad file call common.shader and then copy to /baseq3/scripts.

no still nothing.. will try to uninstall it tnx for help anyway guys

[Le another black niger]

bs, physics surfaceparms are getting baked into bsp

zgaz, do you get that issue online or offline?
also would be helpful, if you showed us a demo

[-O-marky]

Was your engine compiled using 'fast' math instead of 'precise' ?

[TittenIgnition]

It happens to me on my terrain maps that if I make everything slick, sometimes when I cross over from one brush to another, I will gain friction - the ground is no longer slick. Only the edges of the brushes, which makes sense, but still sucks.

it's how such surfaceparms work in q3
noob surf has the same bug (or feature?)
just tried with cushion - same shit

[zgaz]

sry for not responding guys, was realy busy with job last couple days.

@Le another black niger, that hapens ofline and online.

@-O-marky, about my engine to be honest i dont know, i know just to start the game

here is the demo so..
