I just noted another difference in the Mip-Map .Pngs

base.wz are 96dpi @ 8bit depth

Grim's are 72dpi @ 32bit depth

Hmm... I wonder if that could be the issue ?? In other words - Would making an 8bit depth copy of Grim's 32bit depth tertile page and then using Kage's tools to make 8bit depth Mip-Map .png sets from that... ? Hmmm.... thoughts anyone ?

Nope... that wasn't it........ Entirely that is... :-S

I did convert the 32bit Tertile Page to 8bit but when I ran the Python script it only converted the 128 set of Mip-Maps to 8bit .pngs - the other 3 sets of Mip Maps it converted to 24bit .pngs O_o

So I ran the compatibly mod with just the 128 8bit Mip Map .pngs and it loaded the Arizona map (did NOT CTD, boy was that a relief) and I could see the new tertiles in game but only at one cast.... because I was of course running without the other 3 sets of Mip-Maps: 16, 32 & 64

THIS is what that looks like in-game where it's using the 128 Mip-Map set from the compatibility GRIMmod.wz and the other 3-sets of mip-maps from base.wz

So... something is up with the resultant 16, 32 & 64 Mip-Maps from the Python script conversion and I honestly am not zeroed in on what exactly... O_o

In base.wz the Mip Map 128 & 64 sets are 8bit and the 32 and 16 sets are 24bit - and I tried that same bit depth combo with the custom tertile mip maps and it still CTDed. ... so where do I go from there is the ?

I made a dedicated thread explaining stuff for the new compatible download here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=3419

But if you think you can do without that info then here is the d/l link: http://www.filedropper.com/extractgrimwzmod
