VIETNAMSEA TEXTURELIST NOT WORKING!

[ignacioc91 101]

Hi!!! I've been having this terrible problem, maybe you can help me. After converting all VIETNAMSEA TGA to bmp, an having the file TextureListWOV.ini (the one that comes with the newer version of the TE), I try to open the texturelist, and nothing happens. The drop list where every single texture should appear, remains blank. I have attached some shots. Thanks!!!

Okay I tried it myself -- and I get BLANK drop list. But I did this fast and I could have spent more time on it. I think I "forgot" how to work with normal terrains everybody else uses.

 

 

I downloaded the WoV Patch 2008, and downloaded Thudwire.com TE -- that says 2006 I think so it may be old. I thought the newest SF-1 TE was 2008...?

 

Where do you get your Terrain Editor? Your WoV is 2008? I forgot, sorry.

 

Anyways, I see the DROP LIST lol. Now, the edit texture TYPE list works, but the edit MAP list is blank. Both edit lists should work.

 

BLANK drop list...

I suggest build your own Texturelist from zero, from a BLANK file, copying and modifying parts of other (working) Texturelists, and slowly building it up, and one-by-one build up a bmp tile collection -- convert to tga later. Its the closest thing to self-crucifixion (sp?) you'll ever get, but its the ~best~ way to get to know Terrain Editor. I always work with the text files, rarely with the TE texturelist editor. There are lots of tricks you can use to make the text files simple and shorter. Also, start out with tiles only. No "tero objects" until later.

For WOV editing you must use the second version of TE, not the first one which was for SFP1 only.

Any idea why the 2006 TE keeps crashing when I attempt to AutoTexture on WOV 2008? Obviously I am missing something.

 

I am using Win7 OS and have been through the compatability modes of Win98, WinXP SP2 and 3 and Win7.

 

I am stumbling along using Gepards notes. Thanks.

Normaly the CTD comes if you use the wrong version of TE. The first version is for SFP1, The second TE version is for WoX series.

Okay Thanks Gepard, I shall try the 03 version. Which compatability mode is suggested with Windows 7?. Or is better to run this on a Windows XP machine. Or does it really matter?

I have only XP. There is best to run with win98 compatibility mode. I guess it would do it in Win7 too.
