Try this cmd line:

tbin2txt.pl texture.bin

It should list whole load of text to your screen.

btw: are you using linux or win?

Using Windows.
when I put
tbin2txt.pl texture.bin >korea.txt

I get a lot of text on my screen, lots

but when it finishes it doesn't creat the korea.txt

I've used windows for the features and everything works. I even made my TE maps with windows and the tga2res.pl and it worked.

then the ">" is not working like it should :) You'd need to get that output from the perl process into the text file.

Yep I know.

I decided to replace some tiles I didn't need with the ones I made and I was able to add them to my terrain on Terrainveiw and they appeared on my terrain on Falcon 4 too. So a manage to make som ecustom tiles. Now one problem. I changed the color of the sea portion to a bit more green tourquoise color but iin Falcon 4 I only see this change when I'm close to the water and it only appear in My adyacent areas. Outside tht area the color stays the same (Dark blue) And as I get closer to that dark bleu it then suddenly turn to my color.

There has to be something wrog. Does Falcon 4 use a different tile for the water thats further away?

ok FalconPR this is your problem. you forgot to add perl at the begining it should look like this.
perl tbin2txt.pl texture.bin >(your theater name,or what ever you want).txt
i got windows and i tried that and it works just fine. hope your problem will be solved.
don't forget to write this one in the ms dos or command pormat when your following folder is
c:>perl>bin
in my case. at your case i don't no just remember to write the following command when the bin folder is the chosen one.

That happens because you dont have all the tiles done. you need the default H* tiles and also M*, L* and T* tiles. The T tiles are speacial because they all use the same pallette, which is something I've yet to done.
