carverrt Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I followed Bill’s instructions on importing data from another version of SC to Global Conflict. I received this error: “Imported map size [40,25] does not match current map size [40,26].” So, the map does not import. In the GC editor I am unable to create a map size [40,25], it seems that the second number can only be even. What am I missing?

Bill101 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Hi Robert The only solution is to amend the size of the one you're importing so that it will create an even numbered map size. It can always be cropped once you've imported it, so you could always just increase the size of the source image file slightly along the y axis, and try it again until it imports as 40,26.

carverrt Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Hi Bill; How’s Sunday in England? Yes, I tried to amend the one I’m importing. But, the SC PT editor only allows odd number. Do you know if anyone has migrated their SC PT games to GC? Robert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Hi Robert It's Monday now, but a Bank Holiday so great! I don't know if it's been done, but you can always send the files over to me and I'll see if I can get it to work somehow. Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carverrt Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Bill; Thank you for the offer. I might take you up on it, depending on whether or not we get a response on this thread. Robert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 What I'm thinking of doing is amending the image's canvas size to increase the y axis downwards. It's probably easier for me to try out than to explain so please feel free to send it my way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Robert, quick question and this is if the original was a custom map perhaps created with the Map Generator? I only ask as the default maps should all be even numbers for creation and imports and perhaps I think this then might be an issue with the Map Generator. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carverrt Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Hi Hubert, Yes, the map was created with the Map Generator. This makes sense, as you can change the map size settings in the map.txt file. Robert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carverrt Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Hi Bill, Sounds good, I'll send it. Robert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Hi Robert I've fixed it and imported the campaign, so I'll be emailing it over to you shortly. The solution was to create a new scenario in the Global editor which was 40,25, and I did this by manually amending the first two lines in the map.txt file to 40,25. I then imported the data and saved the file. The scenario looks very interesting! Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carverrt Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 Hi Bill, That was a brilliant fix! It makes so much sense. I much appreciate the help. Robert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
