Well that's unusual to say the least. That nothing loaded at all is troublesome. Granted I've never tested with vista, but I know people who have it who haven't had those kind of problems.

I'm on XP not vista.
I was on msn with breny for like an hour trying to get it to work today and got no where.
All I do is open a map file and then I see what is in the above picture.

Will wonders never cease?

My first instinct would involve the map file but that's clearly not the case since it was able to find all of the tags. Just to be clear, we are talking HPC right? Of course you are, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to find the bitmaps.map file. That is exceedingly strange. I made sure to remove any possibility of using the Open and Expand option and removed the associated folder for it so that's not the problem. I wonder if it involves issues with the API. But that looks like a standard theme. Have you encountered similar issues with Eschaton 0.6 at all? Is there anything particularly special about your computer hardware or software wise?

How do I add plugins?
I changed the tag organization and the bitmaps folder appears now but sill nothing loads.

you cannot add plugins to 0.7 bitmaps demo. the bitmaps stuff hardcoded into the program.

Works fine for me on XP.

What is the process you go through to open a map and view the bitmaps?

DeadHamster · Post by **DeadHamster** » Wed Sep 03, 2008 4:15 pm

I click file, open, browse to my .map file, open the bitmap branch, select a tag, and thats it. Nothing special

I guess I'll never be able to edit cubemaps...
Well at least I'll be able to start halo 3 modding next week.
