Dune is genius. Kind of a Game of Thrones before its time. Would be amazing to have worms. lol

Try use Materials 2 mod

You must use materials mod. But at this moment it suspended material selection function in the game. I do not know how it will affect the map.

Why the world is not the same as on screen? He just dark gray and all = (

Can you mske these materials into a planet-like surface, but based on a flat surface, kind of like your Planet Surface with Ores

:)

i got it to work! A+ mod

Try other maps, magma ....... maybe is problem only in folders.

i just cant get it to work, and not sure why.. but i thank your for your help

And from zip file copy only texture folder, into same folder in Space Engineers game folder. Not root folder from zip file.

Delete from your map folder in windows, not in game. Then run game and click again on game workshop menu - copy and run.

what i did was download materials put it in folder and subscribe to it here and enabled mod in game menu. Not sure what i did wrong. what do you mean delete a map?

might be a problem only in the copying textures from *.zip file.

Have you tried manually delete a map from the directory and download it again?

yea cant get it to work.. sucks cause this ball of sand is my dream come true

Now I've tried it

I can not tell what you're doing wrong. Try to manually delete a map from the directory and download it again.

yup its there. then i downloaded material mod

You copied texture folder from *.zip into *:\Steam\SteamApps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\ ?

ok i did all that. enabled before game and still no big sand planet :(

You must read description, "Sektan materials" is in each map with my new materials.

I dont know where to find sektan materials zip

You must download Sektan Materials zip , extract and read install info. Then download material mod ( http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=300853481 ) and enable this mod before you start map.

how exatcly do i get this to work? and for multiplayer too

WWWWWWWWIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Materials as MOD for multiplayer
http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=300853481

Try this http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=300853481

Yes I known where is problem, I must make this mats. as workshop mod, not local.

Hosted. As in when I activate your materials mod in world settings and also have the game set to "Friends" or "Public," it pops up a message saying offline mods can't be used in multiplayer. If I set it to "offline," though, it works just fine.

And you mean hosted game or dedicated server?

It works, but it says I can't use it in multiplayer

Before starting the maps enable MOD - SektanMaterials

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

The file with materials is updated, please download and read the install.txt

Try copy only folder Textures - into SE folder and folder Data - into MODS\materials (for example) and try run map with this MOD materials. But i still have problem with last 2 patch with new materials. I try make as MOD but it still does not work.

This was working great until an update just happened. Now, after the update, the texture is just showing up as regular rock type stuff and the ore that's laying around are just these little neon purple cubes. I copied the materials stuff with the textures into the contents folder again like I did when it was working, but it's still just showing up as normal asteroid rock and little purple cubes. How do I get this to work like it was before?

Just have the textures in a separate download, like how it currently is. Yes, it's a pain, but odds are EVENTUALLY custom mats complete with textures will be possible through mods alone.

The key is to have the mat definitions available as a workshop mod so that people can connect to worlds using your planets as a template, since currently local mods won't work online.

Yes I also tried it but how to do that MOD textures copied to the directory *: \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ SpaceEngineers \ Content \ Textures \ ?

As it turns out it does work. If the textures are placed in the Content directory and the data folder is placed in its own mod, it works perfectly. I'd upload an example, but I leave that to you. I'll just explain how to make it work:

1. Create a new directory in your mods folder (usually located at C:\Users\(yourusernamehere)\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods) and call it whatever you want.
2. Place your materials.zip's data files in that folder.
3. Place a preview image of those planets or your logo or whatever (your choice) named thumb.jpg in the folder.
4. Load up Space Engineers.
5. Access any world's settings and select Mods.
6. Select the mod with the name of your folder and select Publish
7. Finished! You can now tweak the workshop file yourself.

I look forward to an online version of your mat definitions :D

I just looked into it myself. The textures for new mats will not load from the mod directory currently. HOWEVER, I'm 99% certain the materials will load properly if the definitions are in the mod folder but the textures are in the content folder, thus still allowing the grass, dune, and volcano worlds to have unique mats. I will be testing this locally, but it should theoretically work.

I'll look into it.

You can enable and disable mods for individual worlds, you know. So for example it's possible to enable the Sektan Material mod on your planets, but have it disabled on, let's say, a fresh New Start 1 world...

I don't know if I'll do as MOD. Materials are intended only for planets which I create. It not applicable as MOD on any planet.

I'm not yet make materials as mod. I'll look into it.

Any chance of getting the material file snipped down to the essentials and uploaded as a mod? Would make it way easier to check out these maps.

FEASTFORBLOOD: If you would like a special surface, join in my group http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/groups/sektancorp , and write it into the discussion: Ideas for new materials

How do you add the texture?

Download the te file and the map will look even better.

Trust1985: If you used the map "PT 08 DUNE" so there can not see the texture of sand. Do you have downloaded the file, with the materials? The planet was made ​​for sand.
