Unkn0wn 10 Posted February 7, 2010 hi i am a newbie at map making i figured out how to finally get a satellite image in visitor 3 so im done making my map and i clicked export world and it says export as .wrp file and when i export it comes out as a .hpp and the file size is 0kb so i was wondering what i have to do after this step to set my map up to be ready for arma2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 28 Posted February 7, 2010 It generates both a hpp and a wrp file. The hpp is usually an empty file unless your naming locations. Are you sure theres no WRP file there ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unkn0wn 10 Posted February 7, 2010 yup positive ---------- Post added at 10:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 AM ---------- yup just a empty hpp file no wrp file Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phaeden 0 Posted February 7, 2010 You've probably already done this but I would save it with a specific name and then run a search for that name. If it is generating the hpp it is likely generating the wrp file as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unkn0wn 10 Posted February 7, 2010 alright thnx man ill run a search ---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ---------- yea something is messed up i exported it to a folder and there was only a hpp file i ran a search it found the wrp file but when i click on it, it says file no longer exists i dont know why when i dident even mess with it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phaeden 0 Posted February 7, 2010 That's strange indeed. Try exporting again. First, make sure your program preferences are set correctly. Very odd... let me know if it worked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unkn0wn 10 Posted February 7, 2010 yea i am using sgtaces tutorial i followed all the steps and at the import satellite + mask i got an error message that might be why but i am not sure i get an error message saying :Error saving 'p:\p:\tut\tut_samplemap\data\Layers\S_000_000_lco.png after the import mask layer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hsvmann78 10 Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) Make sure your path is correct; if the path is as you posted then visitor does not like the double p:\. Come to think of it, visitor doesn't like a lot of things... Edited February 7, 2010 by hsvmann78 why do they have two slashes anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unkn0wn 10 Posted February 7, 2010 ohhh i see what i did wrong lol it already had a p: included and i added a extra lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phaeden 0 Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah, little things like that or a missing ; will really cause problems. On the bright side, it gets worse the deeper into map making you get... oh, wait, I guess that's not a positive at all. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
