Problems with Terrain Editing

[Firewall233 1]

Hi guys,

I'm a new guy to Arma3 terrain building.I followed pmc terrain edit tutorial.Everything went fine until I tried to binarize my terrain folder with pboProject.It seems that some GDT files are missing(maybe other files are missing too).But I don't know how to solve it.I did exactly what tutorial tell me to do.

Do you have any idea on this problem?

Here's what "Dos window" said:

Any suggestion will be appreciated!

Use the arma discord for faster answers 🙂

 

Did you setup the P drive?

Unfortunately, I can't easily use discord .And yes,I did setup the P drive as the tutorial said.

Anyway,thanks for reply^_^.

Are you mounting with arma tools or a .bat file?

 

Was you using the tools before moving to the bat file method?

Did you use auto mount with arma tools?

 

"a3\map_data\gdt_grass_green_co.paa" is arma files, are they there on your P drive?

 

Are you running the p drive bat as admin?

I mounted P drive with a .bat file as the pmc tutorial said.Actually I don't know exactly how to mount P drive via Arma3 tools. 😛 

(I do believe this problem was caused by my incorrect way of mounting P drive.But I don't know which part was wrong.T_T)

I don't think I was using Arma3 tools before using .bat file.

I will check if this .paa file exists in P drive.Thank you for reminding me this!!!!!!!!

 

I recently found another tutorial on ArmaDoc.I was trying to figure out how to create a new terrain by this way.Maybe I will try to combing both pmc and armadocs ways to find out if its going to work.

Again,thanks for your reply.😀

It might be better to just start a fresh, most people really struggle to start with! But keep with it and it's such a great feeling when the map starts working all the time 🙂

 

Arma Docs is really good, just not fully finished. imo it teaches better for some stuff
