Water textures

[Strip]

Someone has SERIOUSLY got to update the Solomons terrain to include some sunken ships in Ironbottom Sound.

Who has the source files?

Wrong thread....

Thanks midi, but I'm still getting a Resource Build Fail error, even with yours.  Dangit.

Ranger, I've been looking into this and I believe that the memory requirements to build the res are too huge to run on your box.  I'll be looking at optimizing the build process so that it's not so memory intensive.  Bear with us.

Sudz,
I have the same processor as him and have done some major building in the T.E. without any errors.

I am running 3 gigs of ram and Vista 32-bit tho, have a spare gig of ram Ranger?

I just upgraded from 2 gigs of pc4200 to 4 gigs of pc5300.  Still getting the Resource Build Fail error.  I hate to think I just wasted $120 and a 60 mile round trip for nothing.
What else could it be?  Strip has the same processor with 3 gigs and the TE works fine for him. My PC is only 2 years old, not ancient.  This is gonna drive me crazy.

I got the dreaded resource build error finally,weird part was I tried the same action again and it worked.

I have noticed that you (USRanger), MrMidi and Greebo all use Windows XP, I use Vista.

Try it in compatibility mode......windows ME/2000 or something?

I use Vista and XP..2 seperate machines.

My XP machine will build up to a 128 size terrain fine, but if I try a 256 or 512 I get the Error.

Vist machine has no problems.

I am also running an XP machine and get the resource build error. Was thinking about getting more memory but if it didn't help USranger I think I will hold off a bit.

IT WORKED!

I just successfully built a terrain.  After I installed the RAM, I fired up the TE and got the ol' error.  I posted here, then, not content to give up, gave it another shot.  It worked!  Three terrains actually.  I even built the New512 terrain midi sent me.  It's a 512x512 terrain.  I'm fearful to try to update one of my terrains with all the custom stuff added, don't want to jinx it.   It appears the extra RAM did the trick.  I've built, deleted & rebuilt the new512 terrain 3 times now, no error.  Ah screw it, I'll go try on of my terrains now(with loads of goodies).  Might as well push the limits and see what happens.  Will report back (crosses fingers and toes).

[USRanger]

It failed almost immediately trying to build a terrain with custom terrain tiles & objects.

Looks like I'm stuck with *gasp* default everything for now.  I'm just happy I was able to build one though.  My monitor was looking worried it was gonna catch a left hook if it didn't.

[USRanger]

I was able to build my Joust terrain just now that contains a custom field and one custom terrain texture.  Tried on some of my more-custom terrains & still get the mighty FAIL.  It's progress though.
