Why are Grass and Tall Grass models black?

[Proxy]

Have any of you used the Yavin Grass and Tall Grass map objects? I've seen them in the single player yavin swamp and they look fine, but whenever I plop them into a multiplayer level, they show up with a black skin. Even if I tweak the lighting! Any thoughts?

 

the specific models:

models/map_objects/yavin/grass_b.md3

models/map_objects/yavin/grass_tall_b.md3

 

-thanks

I'm not sure, but I think it might have something to do with the sky. I'm not saying this will work, but it is worth trying: Put a sky shader that gives off light overhead.

Nah, I tried a sky shader and it still didn't help!

Ack!

Try this magic trick:

 

Select a model and open entity view.

enter:

 

key: classname

value: misc_model_breakable

 

press enter. If your model turns into a simple box in the Radiant, don't mind that. Just recompile the map and see if it helps.
