I know I haven't skinned much in this photo. In fact I only skinned the grass so far, but the little plant things sticking up from the grass are annoying. How do I kill them?

Thanks

to get the grass out just find that grass bitmap, and open it up and clear everything out. dont change it to black, clear it. then inject it

Ok, how do you mean clear it?
And which bitmap is it? The only grass bitmap I can see is the one I skinned.

clear the image,
I.G. remove everything from it, so there is no space in it

look harder, i know its in there. use entity if your using ch2r, cause its much easer to find a bitmap cause its all layed out, not in category view

Ok, i have found it.
scenarios\decorators\grass\grass_field\grass_field

I am still not sure how to clear it.

EDIT

If you turn the whole thing black, including the alpha, then they disappear. Thanks

For future reference, the alpha is what tells the bitmap where to skin. The black part is where NOT to skin, and the white part IS where to skin. Just thought I'd let you guys know for later :wink:.

Easier Way: Go to the scnr tag then go to the DECR reflex and null out its tag reference.

Ok, thanks fox and shade. That is why the grass turned black when i didn't black out the alpha i guess.

thats why you clear the bitmap. if you clear it then inject it it has nothing to skin it. so therefore there is no skin

but Shades was is easier. but im telling you this for further reference
