CSV Problem
Snakeman
I downloaded all my data. I used Dem2terrain to create my l2,tdf, and objective csv file. I used tacedit to extract just the airbases and created a new airbase csv file to use with CATE for the airbase config file.
When I loaded my BMP to see how the objectives looked with it, the map and the objectives were not in "synch". I tried different zoom levels, but it looked like not all the objectives were there.
At first, I thought it might have been caused by using the Korean save0.cam, which is 64 seg. My theater is 128. So I used Balkans save0.cam cleared it out imported my csv objective file and I had the same problem. Have you seen anything like this before? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Epic

What do you mean by they were not in sync? Can you show us a screenshot of the problem?

Objects/Map Synch
SM
Here is a screenshot from TacEdit. From the shape of the objects in relation to the map it almost looks like not all the objects are there. The objects on the Florida Penninsula look like they are the right dimensions for the map, but the objects don't go far enough South. Hopefully I am wrong. Here is a screenshot. When I zoom in the map looks better, but some of the objects are off the screen and I can't scroll over to them.

Well Balkans is 64 segments too didnt you know that?aused by using the Korean save0.cam, which is 64 seg. My theater is 128. So I used Balkans save0.cam
It does not matter what campaign file you take, as you as you clear it out completely and setup the theater name and size properly.
Sorry but that screenshot dont look like any error I've seen before. Follow up on my above statement and try again.Here is a screenshot from TacEdit. From the shape of the objects in relation to the map it almost looks like not all the objects are there.
Also, are you sure the bitmap is correct size?

No, I thought that Balkans was 128 for some reason.Well Balkans is 64 segments too didnt you know that?
How do you set the theater size in TacEdit?It does not matter what campaign file you take, as you as you clear it out completely and setup the theater name and size properly.
I used Terrain View to create the bitmap, so it should be correct automatically, right?Also, are you sure the bitmap is correct size?
I will try starting over again. I tried reloading all my features into Dem2Terrain and creating a new objectives.csv, but that didn't work. I will start from scratch in case I mixed up some files.Follow up on my above statement and try again.

I reloaded all my data into Dem2terrain, re-generated all my files, reloaded into TacEdit and changed the theater size. I believe the theater size was the problem.
I was getting to far ahead of myself.
