The wiki is an example, you need to use your BRAIN and figure out what to put in the material...
Should Be:
Make sure in the object you are applying the material to, you are using the name "example_material".
Code: Select all
material
name example_material
texture http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t157/corgi_04/tadd_hazard_stripe
end Code: Select all
material
name example_material
texture http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t157/corgi_04/tadd_hazard_stripe.png
end

The texture MUST be PNG.
You cannot use JPG or GIF files.

Well, then its something on your end that needs to be figured out.
This is what the material should/could look like:
material
name SuperCoolMaterial
texture http://insert.org/proper/BZFlag/approved/path.png
end'
Also, you can't host the texture there (since the client, by default, only allows textures from certain URLs), you need to upload it to the BZFlag Image Submission System:

Only if you want everyone to be able to see your textures with a default DownloadAccess.txt.Murtagh wrote:i have to have each approved?
The approval process is to be sure no inappropriate images are hosted on official BZFlag resources.

Read the licenses, some images may not be allowed to be used on your own map, without consent from the author of the texture.

...OR!
You could click on http://images.bzflag.org and get some yourself!
It really isn't that hard to do. There are different texture authors on there, each of them may have a license that goes with their textures. If there is, then go ahead and read it, and check to make sure it is fine to use their texture. At least give them credit in the server message, or the map file's comments.
If there is no license, then it *should* be safe to use the texture, but I would ask the person first.

Murtagh, here is a tutorial on downloading images you may find helpful:

A few admins get a email, saying that a new upload has been made, they will then choose to approve or deny your image, based on content, licensing, etc.
You will then get an email back, saying that your image has been approved or denied. It should probably take a day or so, it all depends on what admins are active, and when they check their mail.

If you have a material, to be able to see it you need a mesh with the material applied, no?
Right?
Code: Select all
material
name example_material
texture http://www.yourimage/img.png
end
Code: Select all
meshbox
name meshyboxy
matref example_material
position 0 0 0
size 10 10 10
end
Right?
