Couch Potato Props Missing file?

ReneWReneW Posts: 151

I just downloaded the free Couch Potato Props and when I tried to load it into a scene, I came up with a Missing File error message that says: runtime/textures/diane/fabtex/fabtexlinenb.jpg.  I checked in the store for that product so I can buy it but, it apparently it is no longer available.  Has anyone else had this same error message?  I know I can just use a different texture but if this set requires a texture that needs to be purchased, it should have been noted in the product description.

    Yes, I'm getting the same error message.

    Apparently its the bump map for the lamp shade.

    I just rendered it and it looks fine.  I'll just ignore the message.

    I was able to bring mine in just fine without an error message, but I checked and I own Diane's linen shader, so it works all right for me. Maybe this is something the artist who created the props might want to update using a different texture that doesn't require another purchased product.

    There is a good lamp shade texture in the recent freebie PC+ "Reader's Corner".

    You really should create a trouble ticket for this. I'm sure Predatron didn't intend to use a file that wasn't included with the product. And if the QA person testing this had the fabtex product installed, the fact the texture wasn't included in the package wouldn't be noticed.

    Any idea on when this will be fixed?

    I submitted a bug report about it a couple days ago. No word there yet.
