It'd be easier to help you, if you'd give enough information so someone could know what you're doing.

I'm going to call your simple terrain map STM

Q1)

A1: do you mean that you placed the plane that you are reskining while in the editor in your STM terrain and you can see the skin changes on that plane?

A2: do you mean that you built your STM terrain and when you copy your STM.res that the editor made and paste it to your C:\Program Files\HTC\Aces High\terrains folder that you can't paste it? or can't select the terrain when running aceshigh?

Q3)

also when i click set destination nothing happen
A3: not sure what this is referring to?

1)yes i put the shape of a A-20g on SMT and i looked the new paint job over on the plane and i liked it. it is a perminate structure outside the base on SMT that when i change the planes paint job i can open the editor up and look it over

2)this is the problem when i go click copy in the terrain editor (that makes the SMT a .res) nothing happens

what is spoused to happen......... is that the editor makes a copy of all my files for SMT together (new map, new skin for the planes in the map yada yada yada) and put the new copy of SMT in the system folder of AHeditor

basically i can't get a new copy of SMT taht i can just cut and paste in the AH folder to use as a day to day map

3) next to the copy button  there is a button u can click that says set destination it is spouased to make it where i can send the copy of SMT to a certin place but when i try and opean it nothing happens

vort say

to create the .res file

you go to the file button and click on build

you then quite the TE and click on yes when it asks you to save

then you go into the terrains subfolder in the te folder the .res with the name of your map will be there

then you copy it (ctrl c) and paste it into the aces high terrain folder
