Wrong tiles!
« on: October 06, 2002, 02:47:40 PM »
Next problem with new TE:

In whick folder I must put the own tiles (textures) that it works?

I have tried "FinRus12" main folder and "texsrc" folder but it creates always the HTC's "preset" textures when I built a terrain.

And when I put the tiles to both folders, it crash...

What i make wrong?:confused:

You place the tiles in your "TerrainName" file which in this case would be FinRus12

Here are the original tiles which would have been found in your C:\Program Files\HTC\aheditor\terrains\textures folder which I noticed that this Editor version doesn't create.

http://accesswave.ca/~tscott/AH-stuff/AH-Editor&Stuff/Original-Textures.exe

If you copy and paste for example, the water tile "Terr0000.bmp" into your FinRus12 folder, and then open that file with paint ( or some paint program ) and scribble in it with different colors, and then save.  
When you open up the editor you'll see this new water tile with the scribble stuff.  All the other tiles will still be the default.

This is interesting:

I see in Terrain Editor my own tiles (mostly originally Jihad's) and for example coastlines what I have made by myself. Tiles are in my FinRus12 folder like in early version.

When I click "Built" and then paste the "FinRus12.res" file to AH's "Terrains" folder and go to Offline / H2H, the landscape is made by HTC's ORIGINAL TEXTURES!

I DON'T UNDERSTAND! :eek: :confused: :eek:

Sorry kanttori for the misinformation.  
I guest anything to do with "plane" and "item" skins placed in the newly created "texsrc" folder now will also need the Clipboard Map and any new Tile Textures.

So place your new tile textures in your C:\Program Files\HTC\aheditor\terrains\FinRus12\texsrc  folder

Thx Pokie!

Actually I tried it earlier but I had the tiles in both folders: "FinRus12" and "texsrc". It crashed the Editor. Now I have them only in "texsrc" and it works! :D

Ps. I think I'm the first one who has made new skins to Tower. Now it looks more Finnish: old gray and rotten house!:D :D
