Terrian BMP Map
« on: October 27, 2002, 04:08:30 AM »
Hi all
I have a question about the terrain editor. I've been making some terrains lately and have a pretty good handle on it, but there's one thing I have trouble with. When I pull up the terrain in the HtH arena, the clipboard map is incorrect. It shows a default terrain of grass and dirt similar to a peace sign.
The fields will be oriented correctly and I have created the bmp map using the terrain editor "make map" function. I copy the bmp file over to my terrain folder and rename it and can use it with my terrain editor, but I can't use it in the HtH arena.
I know it has to be simple, can anyone help me? :P
Thx. :)

All bmp's ( clipboard map, plane  and shape skins ) must go into the texsrc folder of your terrain.

C:\Program Files\HTC\aheditor\terrains\MyTerrainName\texsrc

look for map.bmp, convert that to 256 colours, rename it to the name of your terrain, put it in your texsrc folder

hey presto!

you've got a clip board map
