Dot where your clouds built into the terrain, or are you trying to upload a cloud file also?

If the latter I'm not sure the abillity is there yet to upload weather files in the Custom Arena's.

The .awa file was in texsrc (whatever the source folder is), so I figured it would be built with the cloud file as default clouds for the terrian.  I'll play around a bit more tonight.

Try putting your .awa file in the terrains root folder rather than the texsrc folder

The weather file (.awa) must be in the same folder as the .oba file in order for it to be built into the terrain.

Sweet. Thanks Skuzzy.

...new version of Canyon coming later tonight.   :D


PS.
Skuzzy, any chance of it being available for the AvA? I submitted it back in March...

Let me know when it is uploaded and I can make it available to the rest of the arenas.  Please note; If you make a change to the terrain, the change WILL NOT PROPAGATE across all the HTC arenas unless I make it happen.

Does this mean that the new automatic terrain check process replaces the old approval process and that new terrains can be added to say the AvA, much more quickly?

That if they pass the auto checks you will place them on the AvA server without further ado?

I think it means I'm special.  :banana:




Don't ruin it for me.  :neener:

I cannot make a blanket statement like that.  The system is new.  It will be a case by case basis, for the moment.

Just so you know, I'm holding you to that statement. :)

Hey Dot,

Post some screenies of your terrain!

I could do that, but it would be quicker and easier for you to create a custom arena and choose "canyon" as the terrain; it will download for you. Then you can fly around (in a plane or CM Eye "God" mode) and check it out in person.  ;)
