Title: Tiles or Shapes from OE?
Post by: BlauK on February 22, 2005, 04:27:31 PM

I am still slightly confused with OE.... "Save" and "Save As" create .til to tiles folder, but it is not used if I am making an object... I use "Build" instead, right?

The .til is a saved work file only.. or is it? Is it also used as a terrail tile or are they also finished with "Build"? Is a terrain tile also a .shp?

When converting .ac I get a .shp and .htx files into usrlib folder.... when I "build" I get a .shp into newshp folder. Then I copy the .shp from newshp and the .htx from usrlib to texsrc folder for the TE.

Is this the way things should be done, or am I doing something wrong? :)


I dont actually even want to learn the TE... I just want to be able to provide models and air fields that can be used in TE by just placing them there.

I like the sound of that, because I dont want to make objects, just use them in the TE:D
