QUESTION GRASS FX not working

[Raoulemilian]

Hi.I created my map, i want to assign the grass fx to the material named grass1.
I also added the lines
HEIGHT_MULT = 0.3
COLOR_FACTOR = 1.06
And it is not working at all. Please help.

1- Don't EVER use *.png files as textures for your tracks.
2- re-read the first rule
3- let us know if that worked and solved your issue

Thank you a lot, now it's working ! I am still figuring out why i don't have shadows from the trees. Shadows from the trees on the ground appear in KsEditor but not in the game.
Could be the same reason that i am using png textures?

First, the correct place for the cfg is...
"content\tracks\yourtrack\extension\ext_config.ini"
edit: oh i see its already in the right place

other than that ... png should not matter

less important (meaning it should still work without this) is the "TEXTURE=" you mentioned, not neccessary for your case, it only matters if you also use another method to spawn grass with those:
[GRASS_FX_TEXTURE_GROUP_0]
[GRASS_FX_CONFIGURATION_A]
[GRASS_FX_ADJUSTMENT_...]

The official doc mentions multilayer shaders: (also look at examples mentioned above that)
