Dawn of War Codex

As the title says the units with customized textures don't have their texture displayed once graphics are set to low.

Any idea what causes this?

This has been happening in the previous releases as well. Not sure what causes the problem though

I've been noticing this as well on a number of units, most of whom were new ones added by Elite: new Dark Reapers entirely black except for their guns, so are Dire Avengers except for helmet and catapult, as well as bits of the Whirlwind.

The Alpha Legion Elite-colour scheme also had that problem for a couple units from what I saw, such as CSM's and Havoc's shoulderpads being black as well as the Sorcerer's helmet.

Most of the people who made the models didn't define low-detail textures. IIRC Shuma's models don't suffer from this, and I'm not sure about Bloodravage's either.

Do you know how he did it? When searching through the folders I couldn't find anything hinting that something would be used as a low-res texture and didn't see it in the modeling space either.

Compare his models and yours in Model Editor & Max? I understand nothing about models.

I use the highest settings and dark reapers don't display correctly for me. I can see textures on their weapons but models seem black.

mipmaps my dear boy, mipmaps!

i'm not actually sure that it's mipmaps but that is what i would guess.

i run the game on highest settings and i haven't seen any issues. it's possible something got missed. i also haven't had a chance to play beta 6 yet.
