I've created some of my own arches but they wont load into gridarta.

[Mamoru]

Could you post the contents of the .arc and .anim files you created?
(Put their contents between [ code ] ... [ /code ] )

Lava Waterfall - Animation and Arch files.
Anim:

Code: [Select]

anim lava falls
lava1_fall.131
lava2_fall.132
mina

Arc:

Code: [Select]

Object lava1_fall
name lava fall
layer 5
type 79
face lava_fall.131
material 64
weight 1500000
no_pass 1
blocksview 1
no_pick 1
animation lava1_fall
is_animated 1
anim_speed 4
speed -0.02
end

Object lava2_fall2
name lava fall
layer 5
type 79
face lava2_fall.132
material 64
weight 1500000
no_pass 1
blocksview 1
no_pick 1
animation lava2_fall

Lava Trickling Cave Walls:
Anim:

Code: [Select]

anim lava wall
wall_lava_cave.111
wall_lava_cave.171
mina

Arc:

Code: [Select]

Object wall_lava_cave.111
name lava cave wall
face wall_lava_cave.111
blocksview 1
type 77
layer 5
no pick 1
end
Object wall_lava_cave.171.
name lava cave
face wall_lava_cave.171
blocksview 1
type 77
layer 5
no pick
end

These are what I was trying to upload.

[Mamoru]

One thing I see right away is that there's an object named
Object wall_lava_cave.171.
The dot shouldn't be there at the end.

Another bug is the
no pick
at the end. This should be
no pick 1

Could you provide the names of the image files?

Try recollecting the arches using the bat file attached to this post.
(Save it in the folder with the other w32 bat files of the mapmaker, then run it)
Does that give any errors?

And if your interested in my work... I personally like the lava falls

Well being that there are no floors for the bright color of my falls i am of course gonna make some

[Mamoru]

That explains the problem.
Make sure the file extension is not capitalized.
Images should be in .png format, not .PNG

I really like the images.
You've done a great job

[ghost101]

edit: The new Trickling Cave Walls.

[Mamoru]

So how did the arch collecting go?
Have you tried the new mapmaker package?
~Kiana~

[ghost101]

[Lippy]

No, it's 20100726.

[ghost101]

file extension capitalization, or lack thereof, matters in windoze? o.O

Yes it does.
And it does for the server, client and editor because of that.

I can't seem to transparent the background. Anyone know anything?

[Mamoru]

Use alpha transparency for the background.
