[Solved] — FATAL ERROR: couldn’t load material ‘$default’
I’m having a problem getting radiant to work. I can’t even enter it. Every time I doubleclick the project file(the thing you need to do the first time you run cod4radiant), it crashes and reports an error:
FATAL ERROR: couldn’t load material ‘$default’
GetLastError() = 0
An unrecoverable error has occured. blabla exit…
Any ideas what might cause this problem? I removed all the mods from my mods folder, the main folder is empty, the raw map(where the materials are) is in the call of duty 4 folder. I vaguely remember something simmilar with cod2radiant but I forgot how I fixed it that time.
Help would be appreciated.

maybe you should say how you solved it so if any other people have that issue they know how to solve it as well.

Yeah, the problem was with the iw_01.iwd file(where the default texture is). All I had to do was copy the same file from the DVD into main and it worked.

A bit old topic, but I recently installed Mod Tools and I’m getting the same error. I’ve tried different things (including your fix) but nothing worked. Help please!
EDIT: Quick fixed. After 3 hours of googling and testing different solutions, I got it working.
Solution was to move out the shortcut to CoD4Radiant to the main CoD4 folder (where the MP + SP exe files are) and open it from there.
You can once again lock the topic, hehe.

hi man,
I have few questions for you?
1. did you have the materials and material_properties «$default» ? so no, create one
so yes then go the next step
2. did you use a texture that called: «$default» ?
can delete it in your mapfile from using notepad++ (BECAREFULL: MAKE FIRST BACKUP FROM YOUR MAP)
delete the $default name with that lines on it, it is difficult to say but if you see it then maybe it is easier to know that 
I hope that some of this options will help.
best regards,
Gamer9294

$default is automatically loaded for radiant, it’s a required material for pretty much everything.
If you’re missing that material in raw/materials & raw/material_properties then you should run converter (or reinstall your tools).
