Problems with TGErad and QuArK

by James Brad Barnette · in Artist Corner · 05/28/2004 (10:48 am) · 3 replies

Having some trouble with the tgerad I cannot get the teastrad batch to run correctly.
the whole thing runs then it says Writing Resource: persist..(D:/TORQUE/tmpQuArK/testrad/testrad/testrad.dif


And I get the thing that pops up and says
The Title of the box says:
Fatal-ISV:(C:\torquerad\mirrors\torque\engine\interior\interiorRes.cc @ 217)

and inside it it says:

Unable to write detail level to stream

I get similarly flakyness with I try to load the scene into QuArK and export to dif

what is up here?

Using the current TGErad and Quark 6.4

Any help would be appriceated

Unable to write detail level sounds like it is attempting to create a map with LOD... are you trying this? It might occur accidentally if you have two .map files of the same name but with different trailing numbers (eg. testrad20.map, testrad10.map) in the tmpQuark directory. If you are "building high detail dif", map2dif might think that you were trying to make multiple detail levels and complite the two files together into the dif. This would probably fail if you havn't set the detail values in worldspawn of each of the maps to be different.

Nope simply trying to run the test map that comes with it. it won't compile with the .bat file that comes with it eaither. Well I tak etha tback it compiles but the says something about not being able to write file. And yes it is the only .map file in the directory structure

You must provide -o "C:\Path\Where\To\Be\Exported" in Map2Dif
