yes i have downloaded them
but the beta 32 editors gives me an an error saying error reading pcx file whenm i try to open any lnd files with it

[lav_coyote25]

did you put the filename.lnd in the SAMPLES folder??? all .LND files and all height map files should be placed there.

perhaps it is time again to redo the tutorials. xD

thanx
yes i placed the .lnd and .png files in samples, but when i try to open one with beta32 it tells me theres an error reading PCX file then it goes through an endless list of PIE file read errors
do i need to put beta 32 into the scource folder

ok now i see whats going on.... there is something in the map file itself that is not supposed to be there (either its been renamed or its been deleted from the lists...). have you stepped through all the errors? or does it just cause a crash to desk top or what???? the more information you give in the begining the better. especially about what errors are being produced.... i have experienced most if not all and sometimes i may need to be reminded ( ) .

hi it doesnt give me the option to set any folders
should i be putting the 2.1.3 scource i the beta 32 folder
or does beta 32 already contain all the necessary files for 2.1.3
ive followed the graphical tutorial but at every option it says error reading pcx file
know its stuck on repeatedly telling there are errors reading various pie files
should i have editworld in the 2.1.3 scource
im wondering cos when i press N it doesnt gives me the set directories menu instead it just says error reading pcx file

p.s regarding time zone and country... england greenwich LOL

sorry - i missed reading this one... all that is needed is the editworld 32 files. do not put anything else with it. see the post above this for the solution ( i hope). xD

[lav_coyote25]

now getting back to stepping through the errors - once you have - you will more than likely have a map with no features or items on it. you will have to place all the items again or do what i have done... experiment. xD

hi thanx
well the error it gives is error reading pcx file

and yes you can edit the original maps. i am now working on such a map... the original campaign alpha map... altered to make it a bit more of a challenge. xD
