Sorry to bug you all..I'm just really lost.

From the looks of it, your images have two file extentions, i.e. image.tif.tif, but you probably dont have the right folder permissions to see and edit the proper extensions. Open the folder, then go tools > folder options... > View and turn off "Hide extensions for known file types". That should let you see the extensions to every file. You'll need to remove any double extensions then run tool again.

Thanks for the help, I'll keep that in mind.
I decided to just scrap that map anyway..so I'll just be starting a new one.

That's not an error, tool always does that. Also, you need to upload images to link to them, such as with a site like imageshack. That aside, what are you trying to do with tool?

[crashter]

im trying to build a map. i have a new weapon and vehicle in there but they dont show up.
also wat was that about imageshack? i am using the basic hek tutorial and i didnt see it mention it.

I meant to link a picture to the forum, you need to use a hosting website like imageshack. (Your post tried to link one from your PC.) As for your new weapon and vehicle,

-Did you add the vehicle to Globals?
-Did you place the weapon in an item collection?
-Does the vehicle and/or item collection have spawn settings?

Check all of these. There's also a good deal of tutorials on how to get these things ingame, check them out as well.

[crashter]

i did everything except place the weapon in an item collection i think becasue i dont know how to do that. is there any way you could help me a quick little tut or a link plz.

disregard that. i got the weapon in now i just need to get that vehicle in. i edited the globals.globals, opened sapien and added it and then placed it on the map. did i miss anything?
