Buldozer problems...

[Kristian 47]

Hi!

I am getting lots of errors when trying to start buldozer, for example

"No entry "bin\config.........."

"Shraders not valid (mismach of exe and data)"

What can I do??

Maybe you've loaded O2 and Buldozer on a computer that doesn't have ArmA installed ..........

[Jackal326 1182]

Alternatively, maybe you still have the "old" version of O2, with the wrong version of the bin folder, which doesn't match what ArmA.exe is expecting. Delete (or better yet rename) your bin folder in your O2 directory and unpack the bin.pbo file from your ArmA directory and put the resulting folder into your O2 Directory.

lol, well I am not a retard, so I have buldozer AND ArmA. My friend told me, that there is an update for buldozer?

[[aps]gnat 29]

Buldozer is only used with OFP and the older Oxygen editor.

ArmA.exe is used as the Viewer with the newer O2 editor.

What are you trying to do, OFP edit or ArmA edit?

[opteryx 1562]

Uh Buldozer is the ArmA.exe?? only the engine is running with no world or anything except your model, excluding Buldozer in Visitor3.

Right?

I got the same problem, but I just install the old version of BITools (2007) and now work for me.

Fortunately I have 1.08 installed and I run 1.14 as a mod.

Ok now I did have same thing after I updated from 1.08 to 1.14. Now lets see if I remember correct what I did, since I am not on my own computer there might be some margin of error.

First update your tools after updating ArmA. Attempting to run Buldozer (yes its still called same as in OFP, it did run OFP in old days too, work enviroments name is Buldozer) should produce error.

Now as it tells config in bin folder is not having all entries it needs, Shader changes for instance. There should be a folder in your ArmA folder that contains bin.pbo. Extract it and move extracted folder in P:\, remember its not a fools game to take backup of original folder.

After this Buldozer should work without issues.

EDIT: Now that I read this, jackal said exactly how it should be done and much shorter thatn my blabbering

[Kristian 47]

Now that I got the Bin.pbo extracted, I get fef files, should I make a new folder called bin and put them there, and then put that to P-drive?

EDIT: ok, got it working. much thanks to all of ya helpers

Hmm, still getting randomly this error:

"External viever: unable create viever"

i don't want to hijack the thread with this but also creating a new one just for this makes no sense, i need to ask how can i fix this?

happens when i run Buldozen in O2 no matter what.

It would appear that your texture path is incorrect. By look it seems to be missing your addon folder. Your texture path should be something like this:

P:\<myaddon>\data\wireframe.paa

looks more like the buldozer wireframe option is turned on - go to viewers, buldozer and there should be an option called 'show wireframe' - turn it off as it doesnt work, and causes that error.
