Noob question: How to view ground texture in BF2Editor

[Ski-Racer]

Hiya...noob question.

I am trying to learn how to alter the ground texture on a custom map I downloaded but I cannot even see the texture when I open the level in BF2Editor.

Can someone tell me how to view the ground texture?

Note that I only have the "server" zip file (there was no "client" zip file). Here is what I see in-game...


It does not matter what I choose to render from the menu (texture, detail texture, etc.). Here is what I see in-editor...


Any help in viewing the ground texture in the editor would be appreciated. Thanks!

i think you need to disable rendering of undergroth.

Hi guys,

Thanks for your help!

Here is detailed texture with undergrowth rendered...


Here is undergrowth mode with undergrowth rendered...


I am beginning to think that somehow it's done with a patch or server option. Any ideas? Thanks!

If it's not your map, do you have the ground textures in the editor folder?
