WRP to PEW

[Rain^^ 10]

Hello

Help me please I can not understand how to use this utility (ConvertWrp)

I'm installed it on "D:\Bohemia Interactive\ConvertWrp"

Created run.bat file

convertwrp island.wrp 2 pew.cfg

But I don't understand what I need to write in pew.cfg

If I just droped my island.wrp file on ConvertWrp.exe in directory create file island_8WVR.wrp

I think "2" is not a valid parameter. As far as i can remember you should use "40". However the simpler way to convert a wrp to pew using this dos tool is to get it working through the mikero great tool Eliteness https://dev-heaven.net/projects/mikero-pbodll/files. It is an interface that make the work for you.... ;)

Hope this will help you.

This is how I do : (there may be easiest, but just so I can , I am layman in programming)

1 - Download the files ;

***- ConvertWrp1.73a.Installer.exe

- DePbo4.17.rar the link :

*** https://dev-heaven.net/projects/mikero-pbodll/files

2 - Run / Install ConvertWrp1.73a.Installer

- It will be a folder created Mikero in C:\Program Files(x86)\Mikero

NOTE: I DO NOT USE THE MIKERO.EXE . USING THE TOOLS THROUGH A FILE.Bat

4 -Copy the folder ConvertWrp ( C:\Program Files(x86)\Mikero\DePboTools\docs\ConvertWrp )

created in item 2 and paste somewhere on your preference .

5 - Unzip the DePbo4.17.rar this folder

6 - create a file ConvWrp.bat :

echo on

convertwrp NameMap.wrp 60 pew.cfg

pause

7 - Your folder would look like this :

Convert2tPew.txt

ConvertWrp.Fixes.txt

ConvertWrp.ReadMe.htm

ConvertWrp.Uninstall.exe

ConvWrp.bat

Pew.cfg

DePbo.dll

***and several txt files

8 - Copy and paste file.wrp the folder you want to convert .

9 - Open ConvWrp.bat and replace NameMap.wrp the name of your map, Save.

10 - Double-click on the file ConvWrp.bat and will create a NameMap.pew

PS: Maybe your computing needs of DLLs msvcp110.dll and msvcr110.dll .Maybe you have in the folder C:\Windows\System32, if not download them ( google ) and paste in the folder above.

PS:sry, Google Translator

That's a nice, informative post by Vovo folks.

 

the only discrepancy in this discussion is that Eliteness will not convert wrps. It only views them.

 

the correct syntax is

 

convertwrp NameOf.wrp  60

 

this will produce an arma TWO   pew file

 

convertwrp NameOf.wrp 60  some.cfg

 

will use the details contained in 'some.cfg'  to:

 

• give you vegetation(green) versus 'artificial' (red) object icons in visitor,
• make the icon-objects round or square

the cfg supplied in the documentation is generally more than good enough.

 

convertwrp NameOf.wrp  8

 

will produce and arma2 unbinarised wrp which looks identical to the one created by visitor or Terrain Breaker.

 

When importing into Terrain Breaker It is your choice to use either the pew, or the unbinarised.wrp
