My bitmapsDate\
this is my error log for HEK I have been trying to modify TImberland for a month and it keeps screwing up on this error
: 27/04/2011
Assembly Name: mscorlib
Product Version: 1.0.2.0
Exception: The process cannot access the file 'D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\Tags\levels\test\timberland\bitmaps\timberland_waterfall.bitmap' because it is being used by another process.

meanwhile Sapien hates me with this error:

plz help would really like to put a.i in this map I already have several idea's that include a schizophrenic chief (only because of his rapid head movement) in the process on beta phase

:D thanks for reading

Well did you make sure you have all the tags in the correct folders and installed correctly?

yes, when I try to open the bitmap up this comes up
using Kornman00/Gariellia mod;
file_read('tags\levels\test\timberland\bitmaps\timberland_base_lights_red.bitmap') error 0x00000026 'Reached the end of the file. '
couldn't read #108 bytes from offset #64 in local tag 'tags\levels\test\timberland\bitmaps\timberland_base_lights_red.bitmap'
couldn't read elements for bitmap block
failed to load bitmap tag 'levels\test\timberland\bitmaps\timberland_base_lights_red'
couldn't open tag

im guessing it has something to do with lightmaps?

also tutorial.map/a30/glass.bitmap is missing for me somehow really don't like .bitmaps atm

Your bitmaps are corrupt. Delete then re-extract.

It's always one particular thing HEK has trouble extracting the waterfall.bitmap

is it possible that the Map is corrupt somehow?

I may have deleted the original map opps :L bad idea

Also try running as admin
