Skybox missing from 2022-05-17 Update

PostWed May 18, 2022 11:33 am

I've just updated to the latest version, released yesterday, and every time I load the application I no longer get a skybox.

I've tried switching to "skybox 2" in the lighting settings, and it clearly changes the shadows, but still no skybox.

I've tried hunting around the usual places for log files, I can't find anything. Nor are there any entries in Event Viewer.

I'm running Windows 10, GTX 980Ti.

Is this a bug in the latest version?

Thanks

I`ve had a look into it and i can't grasp what's going wrong, could you delete the "sky" folder that holds the sky textures the in the "Tree It/Textures" directory. You should get a white/checkered sky this will help determine if its the shader, or failing to load the sky texture.

Result as attached, without the Sky folder the result is the same.

Thanks

P.S. Thank you so much for developing & freely releasing TreeIt :-)

So it seems to be a shader issue then, but Im not sure as to why its not rendering correctly as it should be fine on a 980ti.

I will try the program on some different pcs to see if the same issue occurs.

The skybox is working fine now! There seems to be a crash with the 23/05 update, If you try to enable the cone setting for the leaves it crashes, especially on the default tree, I somehow got it to not crash by messing around with the leaf/trunk settings but for the most part it seems to crash.

I also wanted to say a huge thank you for continuing to update these apps and putting them out for free, it's literally insane how flexible TreeIt is.

I'm sorry to report, I've still got a black background with the 25th May build. Is there any log/debug information I can supply?

SO, The .exe file give problem, if you use the zip file and uncompressed it in a folder the software work well, the exe file give problem with skybox and give also problem to load the trees.

I hope this is usefull!
