tomb raider fan Member Posts: 579 From:England, Sheffield Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 03-26-2002 07:23 AM 1. Why does it say "ERROR: SPRITE30 W32 H32 DOESN'T FIT" When i convert my level cos it doesn't say that when i convert other levels? ( It's a custom wad ). 2. Why have my objects in my wad gone transparent and all of the textures are wrong? ( It is proper and looks fine in the game ). 3. When i delete an object from my wad on TRWest, For example it says "You need to add PUZZLE_HOLE11 for the SIXSHOOTER_ANIM to work properly. Wot does that mean? 4. Where can i find a good CAD program from the net ( Doesn't matter if it is shareware of freeware, Either one will do ) which all of you use that is easy to use? 5. What is most number of objects you can have in one wad? PLEASE Answer these questions iam really stuck without the answers. cheers, TRF IP: Logged

I don't know 3. for some reason some objects rely on others to keep the wad working correctly. 4. I downloaded a cad program, meta, from a stie a while ago, but now the site's down. If you would like me to send it to you though, i could. it's 1.88 mb 5. i'm not sure, but in TRWest you can count how many. ------------------ Visit my site! Sign my guestbook! IP: Logged

It's nothing bad, since it works in-game, but don't try to make your wad bigger (usually something like this happens when you have toom much enemies in your wad) IP: Logged

[2]I had this problem also with a older level, too many objects in your wad which drains memory can create these transparent textures. The mixed textures are caused when you edit your wad too much with trwest, they get mixed up... I fixed my problem cause i had a backup wad which i always make when editing them [3]Some objects need eachother to function correctly, its expirmenting with this, mostly the Six_Shooter item depends on alot of objects, Uzi_anim, Flare_anim, Bird_blade and Doortpe4 ( from cleopal ) need SixShooter anim and also puzzle hole_4 it was or something, anyway you should expirment, i got my custom wad perfectly using coastel.wad, i was able to delete all puzzle holes and key holes and door types which pleased me alot [4] already questioned from other people [5]Depends on how meshes a object has, a dog has more meshes then a rolling ball, also depends on the surface of the object, like the more wired surfaces it has the more textures it will drain. As soon as you bump into memory limit your wad will be corrupted or it will act weird and textures might mix... ------------------ The best thing and last thing is to try ( ^_^ )=b IP: Logged
