jdmorse Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 Recently DL'd (2x) the new panzertruppen mods. Both times after unzipping (on my iMac) I got bmps that were corrupted. If anyone could send me a clean copy (can be either zipit, Stuffit, or in clear) I would appreciate it. Good job Panzertruppen, they make CM so enjoyable with the detail you have provided.

Guest Lord General MB Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 Soldier, Yeah, I found that too. What with the disco colours and not. I can send you the clean copy of the non snow, but not of the snow file. Do you want it? Panzertroupen: Very nice work! Do you have a web site? ------------------ Salute!

Maximus Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 I would, but I just ran a sharpen filter over all of them and they wouldn't match what you've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had this problem on a Mac with at least one .bmp file in almost every mod pac I have downloaded. -tom w [This message has been edited by aka_tom_w (edited 12-02-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 What exactly is the texture doing on Macs? There is no transparentcy in those files so its not the offset pink problem. If you can get native BMPs thatwork, please send them to me and I will update the zips. Thanks! Madmatt ------------------ If it's in Combat Mission, it's on Combat Mission HQ!

aka_tom_w Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 Hi Matt I was posting in good humour I think the problem is specific to macs and specific to Zippit It seems to be some what random in my opinion. I ususally work around it be using an old .bmp file or opening the disco coloured corrupt file and working on it in Photoshop with the rubber stamp tool if there is enough good image left in the file to clone it back together somewhat. -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzertruppen Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 That's correct - the problem is related to Zippit. Tom_W and I had a terrible time trying to figure out what the problem was when he hosted the original Rural Building Mod. The only thing I can figure is that that particular utility is only 99% reliable at converting files. I even resaved certain files and then emailed them to him. Same problem, same files. We then tried sending them posted inside an email (not as an attachment. That didn't work either. The problem is not with the file, but with the conversion process. I don't have time right now, but someone could post those two images on this forum. Then the people who need them could just copy and paste. Hope this helps.

aka_tom_w Posted December 3, 2000 Share Posted December 3, 2000 Pansertruppen et al. are correct the latest version of Stuffit will work where Zippit it won't. In some cases Zippit is Just plain flakey but its also FREE so you only get what you pay for... I think the latest stuffit expander is also free but it actually works. -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
