Ok. without implying stupidity on anyone, its not really likely that I would
host a site full of PMI tutorials that dont work......

The most common error for file placement is the fact that when you
recursively extract the item you only select the outer most folder and
HMT creates the sub folder tree.

However, when you extract the raw model from the CSV file you MUST go
into the the folder tree to the exact folder required. This is not as hard as
it sounds. If you take a few seconds and look at the item listed in the CSV
file, it actually tells you inthe file which section of the folder tree and the
exact directory to put it in.

If you get an error message of verice and indice not found, you need to
pause the PMI process right there. Locate the missing indice and vertice
files and move them into the correct folder. You can then call the decrap
popup and try again.

can you put a PMI into a SP level? when im rebuilding it says cannot locate file blah/blah/blah/blah/a10.sbsp.meta and the file is right in the stupid directory.

Zenaku213 · Post by **Zenaku213** » Thu Dec 29, 2005 7:03 pm

That error is typically associated with two sessions of HMT running while you attempt to rebuild. Go into Processes and end HaloMapTools.exe there. Then continue the rebuild.
