dude, i have just started too, and there is a thread sumwhere on here that links to the new tools and stuff, cant remeber where it is though

and also to #2, i know but it takes along time cos i coat the map in grass or watever the main floor is, and then add as i go along, but it takes along time even on the smallest map, i was wondering wether there was like a button to fill the map with a certain thing like grass, a shortcut similar to the sims when you can fill a room with the same carpet instantly. if you dont have sims then ignore that bit, but I find it a bit of a slog really,, but i havent properly tested it yet so

I'd considered that comissarpat but i have a few maps which have all the textures missing in game yet they are all in the folder, plus I have seen no such comments on the boards at the download site, logical assumption never the less.

now that i was not aware of, i'll go do that and post the results thanks lq8110

No dice fellas the question marks are still there, I also tried copying the map information from the W40k folder into the WXP folder nad vice versa, no effect.

Just to let you know, we try to encourage people not to bump their posts. Posting three comments in a consecutive row isn't helping us do that.

Try posting once per time please, give others a chance to reply before you do

Man, I have tried mapping and it requires to much patience for me to handle. I used to make maps for Starcraft and really enjoyed it but this is a lot more of a complicated system. I tried just making a simple jungle map and I had to spot making it cause it sucked to bad. I don't know how you have to patience comissarpat.
