Hi all,

i am working on a overgrown theme map and basically i keep noticing every other day when i am doing some edits in my map that the brushes i already done on my panels that are at weird shapes because i am doing this destroyed overgrown theme, that they just unalign by themselves and i have not even touched them.

i have had to redo these textures 5 times now, and it is totally annoying the hell out of me, why does hammer decide to just re align the textures to the grid when i have not touched them, i seriously don't understand, i am sick to death of keep redoing them, i use the texture lock a lot and i turn it on and off when i am adding other brushes and doing indicator lights and such, so i do not understand why it just messes my panels i have in weird shapes up when i do not touch them

please anyone who has any ideas why and how to stop this let me know, because as i said already twice, it is really doing my head in

thanks

LuckyRJ

It would be good to see some pics of your issue. Are you using a different scale than 0.25 in your textures? I ask because I only saw hammer messing up with my textures when I used too many decimals (0.265 and such) because it tends to simplify the value (say to 0.27)...

thanks for replys, i fixed them again now, so no point in taking screenshots of them, but when it does it again which it will, i will do a screenshot and post it in this thread,

i use texture lock a lot, i am always toggling it on or off, but when i do this i never touch the brushes that keep unaligning, basically if i can explain, it unaligns my panels i have at wierd angles, (the panels are at weird angles because i am doing destroyed theme,) i always have my textures at X 0.25 and Y 0.25,

if anyone else as any idea what i can do to fix it, please let me know and like i said i will upload a pic if it does it again

Thanks
