Hey DarkSynopsis,

If everything was configured properly Worldcraft should build the map and start up Swat 3 after it is done building.

It is recommended you turn off Last Resort mod with the toggle switch on the launcher (and hit Save & Quit). It can cause complications while working in Worldcraft so the easy thing is to turn it off completely.

You may need to give Worldcraft admin privileges to fix your problem.

Below is the full text from my process windows after a successful build:

I don't see how or where my setup is wrong, I hadn't turned Last Resort off but made sure to do that now, I also was running Worldcraft with Admin Privileges.

Getting my Process Window to output pretty much the same as yours it still fails when it tries to build the .SCN file with.

I get

Warning: Cannot open 3\game\Tools\Worldcraft\map.dat (use -buildmat to set)

Error: Cannot open 3\game\Tools\Worldcraft\map.exe

This just means the path is broken due to spaces so if I go into the Run Window and change $bsp_exe to "$bsp_exe" it should work right? which looks like it tries but for whatever reason windows says it was denied!?

** Executing...
** Command: "D:\SWAT 3\game\Tools\Worldcraft\map.exe"

* Could not execute the command:

* Windows gave the error message:
"Access is denied."

I am confused. Your process window doesn't look like mine since you don't have the first line as this:

** Executing...
** Command: Copy File
** Parameters: "d:\program files (x86)\galaxyclient\games\swat 3\missions\sample\mission\sample.map" "D:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\SWAT 3\Missions\Sample\mission\sample.map"

According to your post you have this as your first line:

** Executing...
** Command: D:\SWAT 3\game\Tools\Worldcraft\map.exe
** Parameters: -texpath "D:\SWAT 3\game\Missions\sample\mission\textures" "D:\SWAT 3\game\Missions\sample\mission\sample"

This menu is extremely touchy. From what I recall long ago some things it allows you to manually edit and type out and some things it wants you to use the CMDS and PARMS button. You don't need to do that there. The only place you have to worry about the space in your path is line 2 with the textures path. Don't ask me why but that is how it works.


If you want you can email me your "CmdSeq.wc" and "GameCfg.wc" files to compare against mine.
