aw :(
« on: April 19, 2011, 02:49:28 AM »
Thinking of learning how to do this, (I couldn't remember why I kept deleting the editor) but every time I open the editor I see a white box and then when I try to do anything it freezes, tells me there's an error and it needs to close.  :cry

At the top of this forum you will see a sticky titled MrMidi's TE Tutorial. Follow it step by step. Take your time and before very long you will have created a basic terrain.

Make sure you have the current version Marine.  Crashes on opening if you don't.

AHEDIT2213.EXE is the latest version. If that's the one you have then you should be good to go.

Does the TE crash as soon as you click the icon, or after the program starts and then you try to do something?

Sorry so late to respond, I'm on vacation.

After I try to do something. Doesn't matter what it is.

I do wonder if the OP needs to shut down non-essential resources when running TE. It err'd when I first ran it, but later was OK. I do recall similar using the Film Editor and now shut down resources to use that. (My Win XP can use FSAutostart)

I down loaded the TE today and I tried your tutorial as a first time user today - Very handy thanks. :aok I completed the test exercise. btw I think it's left click and hold to paint over the sand not right click and hold  ;) - At least it got me clicking  :)

Why should you not use upper case in naming a terrain?
