Visitor3 Import sat&mask textures help!

[L!nk07 0]

Here is my problem:

I want to create a simple map but for some reason as soon as Visitor3 shows the progress bar saying "Importing Satellite Data" it crashes. I thought my texture sizes were wrong but I checked that. Maybe I missed something?... Anyway, buldozer runs perfectly before I starting import the textures. So the problem has to have something to do with the textures etc.

Please help me. I there is more information you need, just let me know and I will add it.

L!nk out...

your project folder shouldnt be in the ca folder, put your project folder in the p drive. change your paths removing ca\ . your mask and sat images must be in 8 bit color non interlaced. only image that must be 16 bit interlaced is your terrain.png

Thank you rstratton!

That worked. Can't believe it was that simple!! I blame the tutorial I used because it said it has to be there. sigh...

Thanks alot again!

L!nk out.

Some of the early User made tutorials have errors, but you can't really blame them, they were writing them starting from zero .......

But at least they broke ground for us <----- I made a funny
