If the Block 5-5-6 is build in a Stadium-Map the Shadows don't compute correctly. The computing display says 0,00 Texel/m. After saving the map the size is about 90k (~5300 Coppers). If the Block is deleted all is OK.

Screen 1 - this Block sucks


Screen 2 - The display of computing shadows


I have tested all other Blocks and this bug appears only for 5-5-6. Can anyone confirm this bug?

Since Release Maps build with Block 5-5-6 there is no shadow calculation possible. Always show 0,0 Texel, no shadows visible and .GBX-Size not big enough.



Thats a biiiig bug, pls. fix this as soon as possible!

hab den block auch schon verbaut aber kein bug beim schattenberechnen. hab den schatten in hq berechnet . http://tm.mania-exchange.com/s/tr/41945

Please post reports and replys to reports in English only, thanks!

Translation of the above:

have used this block also, but without shadow calculation bug. shadows were rendered in HQ.

Bitte Fehlerreports und Antworten darauf ausschließlich in Englisch verfassen, danke!

mees ist definitely broken, we testet it on 4 different PCs, as 5-5-6 beeing used the calculation stops working. Try it yourself and you will see ...

Just build a map with just a start, a finish and block 5-5-6. Wonderful shadows... So maybe it's a certain combination or another block that causes this?

Thanks for the report. This will be fixed.

@mees (and the others), i try to download your map and see the filesize is only 106 KB. This is definitivly not an normal size. On correct calculated maps the filesize range is between 300 - 600 KB !!!

Test your map again and look at the display for "texel/m" while calculation. This will be 0.0 texel/m !!! This is also not normal.

It is def. a Bug and will fixed soon hopefully
