problem with evironment mapping

Hi there,

I created 6 cube faces in .tif format.
When I load them in vizard the background gets black, white, grey dashed?
What could be the problem?

Settings of .tif files are:

2500x2500 Pixels
300 ppi

With other .tif files which I did not create on my own it works fine.

Settings there:
1144x1144 Pixels
72 ppi

Can somebody please help me.

Thx
Phil

Have you tried another format like .png ? Either way can you post one of the tif files or email it to support@worldviz.com.

The single tif you sent works fine for me. I created 6 copies of it and used them for a cubemapped texture and all sides showed up fine. Are all the tifs the same size? Here is the script I used to test it:

Code:

import viz

viz.go()



tex = viz.add(viz.ENVIRONMENT_MAP,'Test.tif')



dome = viz.add('skydome.dlc')

dome.texture(tex)

well what should I say, with the file I send to you it now also works on my machine. but this file was reduced because I send it by mail.
could it be that the size of the .tif matters? I just tried the the bigger one ca. 8MB per file and their the problem appears again.

I am running vizard on an mac-air with paralles and windows xp. could it be that this is too much for my graphic card?

I try to send the .tif in the original size per mail again.
would be nice if you can test it with this version also.
Thx
Phil

I think the problem is the size and the capabilities of my graphic card in the mac air.
When I reduce the size to 1024x1024 pixels it is fine.

Cheers
Phil
