LNE & LV S-2s

[longislandmike]

I hope I'm in the right forum with this question. There was a download in yesterday's file for these 2 engines (lv_lnes2). The readme stated all you needed was to add a cabview and sound. But that's not the case, there are bmp files that need to made into ace files (am I right?) using AceIt. I did this, but when I tried to compress the .s file with RouteRiter, I got an error saying the file couldn't be compressed. Has anyone been able to make this work? Thanks.

Wow, I guess nobody tried fixing this file, can't blame them though.

Had a look but not done anything yet. What you have in the zipfile is a TSM project file with 2 and a bit sets of textures in bmp format. The texture names used in the project have spaces in them, which mean the whole thing needs to be reworked anyway.

The spaces in those filenames are the reason the s file will not compress.

Beer is not a matter of life and death. It is much more serious than that.

Thanks. This is really over my head so to speak. I have changed things in s files but never checked through them for errors. I'm amazed I even figured out how to make the ace files! But this how you learn to do things on your own.

I am going to redo them in TSM. I'll give you a shout when done.
