:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

In the map editor there are separate terrains available for Ice and Beach Ice. There are also two separate texture files (g_ice.dds and g_ice_beach.dds) for these in the game’s texture folder. However, both Ice and Beach Ice are set to use the g_ice.dds, and thus look exactly the same in-game. This means that the g_ice_beach.dds is included in the game download but not actually used for anything as far as I can tell.

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Open AGE and check the graphics used for Ice and Beach, Ice

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

I assumed the Beach, Ice terrain should use the g_ice_beach.dds texture file.
