I want to run a map but to change the name and the wad file.rni.e re skin the map textures. The problem that I am having is that the textures from different wads seem to mix on map change ? rnrneg mapcyclernrndod_map1 using dod_map1.wadrndod_map2 using dod_map2.wad rndod_map3 using dod_map3.wad rnrnetc etc all the same map but wad file name changed using bspedit and mapname changed.rnrnnow when first map loads all is fine but when I get to the third map i have remnants from the first wad files textures.rnrnI assume that the textures are cached and i need to clear them the reload the new wad on map change but how ?

If the .wad files you have listed have the same content then you will have to rename the textures per .wad file so that you don't get texture bleed over.rnexample: dod_map1.wad has a texture called kl_wallpaper1....change it to kl_wallpapar2 for dod_map2.wadrnIf you have many of the same files in each .wad you will have this problem. The other problem you may be having is that on each map you listed.... it may need all 3 .wads in each map.The problem with some mappers is they tend to list .wads that are not even used in the actual build of the map. So..you can test this by removing some of the .wads (one at a time) listed at the top of the file and start the map and if it runs then you have just removed what is not needed.rnHope that gives a little help...or maybe I am not understanding your problem very well.

Thanks MTCoors that makes sense, there is only one wad for the map and it does seem like a bleed problem. rnI don't think that I can rename the textures as I do not have the source for the map so the reference to each texture cannot be changed in the actual bsp :( rnrnSo I will just end up with missing textures. I can test though
