!Polytrn Color Map not specified
That's the error message I get when trying to play a map I made with the BHD Map Editor (which I got from here). After saving, exporting to .bms, etc, I start up the game, go to test out the map, and I get that error message. Any ideas on how to fix this? I AM a newbie to map-making, so it could be just pilot error, but I figured it can't hurt to ask...Thanks.
Okay, I'm a dumba$$...I forgot the fact that there IS a mapping forum here, and just posted under BHD in my short-sightedness...Sorry. Last edited by Romeo Eight Jul; 11-28-2002 at 08:20 PM. |

you need to after you save and export go into bhd folder and drag the .bms into the packit . the packit came with the editor dnld after ya drag .bms into packit and it packs . you have just over written the original map and now yours should show up for hostn

Yeah, I've saved, exported, packed it, etc...it just doesn't work for me...I can't find any mention of the polytrn color map anywhere, and it's getting frustrating...I can make a map, I just can't play it...grr...
I know there's a Force checkbox in Packit, should I check that, or will it not have any effect? |

Have fun!The BMS files must be named either TDMM01a.BMS TDMM01b.BMS TDMM01c.BMS or TDMM01d.BMS. They need to be packed so I have included a custom packit.exe Outlines are now shown. Using the "3D wireframe" mode will show the objects in side view. Z values usually have to be adjusted. The choppers should work well with AI-Textfile H_BHAWMP. After exporting the BMS file, run DV's C4BHD.exe to "fix" the BMS before packing it. Thanks again DV!!! (This step may not be necessary, decide for yourself) is the map named like 1 of the 1's above in red ??? this iss the bhd med read me file . if its named as 1 of the above red bms then srry dont know why |

I have the same problem. I did all of the steps the same way and I still have the same result.

for me (at least) I did that also and of coarse the same result.
Does anyone have a complete walkthrough of every little step they do? It would make it alot easier.

OK...Well...after all this time, I'm still having no luck (sorry about the absence, I've been playing Batlefield 1942 for a couple weeks). The maps are named correctly, and I've run AND NOT run the C4BHD exe and it seems to make no difference. I DID just notice, however, that I had TWO TDMM_01b.bms files...one was an IGOR file ...so I, in my infinite wisdom, deleted it...It made no difference. Mebbe I just wasn't meant to be a mapper, I suppose....hmmm...
