[Ted Strykker]

I got some desert tiles from faint,when i put them into the texsrc file,and rename everything ,after i go back into the TE too re-build my map with the new tiles there is no res file for my map?

Can i put the  tiles skuzzy hooked us up with into the TE for makin maps,and if so how?

You don't open res files.

You must "Build" those edited tiles to "shapes" in the Object Editor: for ex. build the "ter0003.til" to "ter0003.shp".

After building you find the "ter0003.shp" from the userlib folder. Drop it to the texsrc folder and that's it!;)

again probably a confusion between a tile and a tile. Is it *.til or *.bmp?

Anyways, you should not rename them. They need the terr**** names to function properly.

Wait, I think kanttori has the correct naming, the difference is the single 'r'.

Yes?

The tiles have 1 r, the textures have 2. It seems likeky ted doesn't know the difference between the two.

I think Hitech is trying to confuse me.

But hey, that's too easy to be any fun.

Thanks for clearing it up zmeg.

What I meant was that when people talk about tiles, they can mean either *.bmp or *.til and that often causes confusion.

[kanttori]

It's better use "texture" when speaking bmp- terrain texture files and "tile" when you speak terrain tile with objects' overlay. That's clear!
