: Ok, now im god damned tired.
: I really really really really (really) can't figure it out. In 3daccel mode my level looks just fine. In non-3d the textures keep on jiggling, moving, scrambling and all. Restiching sometimes fixes it. Sometimes I need to cleave the problematic surface 94223 times in 91246 direction to make THIS surface stop jiggling and make all the other around it START jiggling. And sometimes nothing fixes it.
: I am freakin tired of it. I mean, if nobody knows what causes this Im gonna put a "For 3Daccel Users Only" label on my levels. I have delayed the release of this level for 3 weeks now trying to fix those problems.
Don't ever cleave a surface all up to fix a problem like that -- that will seriously have a bad affect on shadows and gameplay -- more surfaces to calculate=worse framerate.
Now, I've had that problem, and the ONLY way I found to fix it was to send it to a 2d-only person, and he re-stitched the bad textures.
Other than that, I can't really suggest anything.. :-( Good luck.
