My son has built a level with a simple terrain patch. Skybox is there , reflection probes, all 3 spawns for TDM. He's even built a room with a door and a window. But everytime he starts his game the player is falling. We went back and made sure the spawn points weren't below or in the terrain .We even raised them slightly above the floor to make sure. One time he made the patch and inadvertently stretch the texture but we got rid of that and replaced it with a simple terrain patch. Any suggestions on why his player spawns into space, apparently below his terrain???

Make sure his terrain texture doesn't have a '@' in the texture name because thats for alpha blending which means the texture isn't solid.

Yeah, I'd read that earlier today. It's named ch_dec_leaves. Should it be solid?

Another comment on the _ vs @ in the texture name. I"m using ch_grass_01 and not having the falling thru issue that my son is having.
