Visitor 3 / Buldozer Crash

Recommended Posts

Could be any number of things... it's a little difficult to tell without further info...

An outright buldozer crash could be... eeeh... missing Sat & Mask files??? Check your "Layers" folder is being created in the correct place in P:\yourtag\project\data\<layers folder should be here>

The "buldozer.rpt" file on P:\ might hold some clues... Maybe you could take a look at that - post anything that seems relevant...

I'm not familiar with the tutorial you've followed I'm afraid... at a quick glance some of it seems a little dodgy... There's some severely non-standard Layers folder conversion trickery (dating from 2007!) suggested, and the fact it dismisses the whole concept of having roads on your terrain as "not possible yet" is a bit scary too!

If you're dipping a toe into terrain making for the first time then - well done! - it's a fascinating aspect of modding - a real jack-of-all-trades hobby that you'll have endless fun with, but it might be a good idea to start out with a basic tutorial thats a little more up-to-date and coherent...

For a "Quick Guide" covering all the necessary steps for creating a simple terrain, your current best bet is Mondkalb's Terrain Tutorial

That - quite briefly - covers just about everything you need to know... however, as it says in it's opening paragraph, it doesn't explain every mouseclick you need to make in detail.

Sometimes it's good to have an ultra-simple, click-by-click explanation - and a full set of working example files - right at the very beginning... For that, you might want to take a look at this Total Beginners Guide (Use the "Armaholic Mirror" link for downloading, and make sure you grab the Source Files package from the link on the same Armaholic page)...

Awesome, thanks! I've been trying to find a more recent tutorial/guide.
