I am working on a map with no custom textures or anything.

it looks fine when I play it. when I posted it on this site as a WIP, it was all purple and black for other people.

what went wrong? how can I fix this?

here is the original thread about it.:

agito-t960.html

by the way the map is not on the site anymore.

You're probably using non-Portal games, and people who don't have said game don't have those textures.

If they are reporting purple/black squares, then you should be able to tell from their comments and pictures exactly WHICH textures they are missing from your working map (and you can look up its name, of course).

When you find that out, report it here, and we'll see if its portal-specific or not.

if you look at the topic, the whole level is black and purple squares.

yeah.

not good.

edit: actually, looks just like its the black squares.

the texture with the big black squares is missing.

edit:sorry, ignore the whole thread, I was wrong, I forgot I was using combineshields
