It's a nice shortcut for the semi-rebuild since I know that no changes to the bsp or models will take place during conversion. I was surprised to find that internalized bitmaps actually work with PC.

Maybe next time you will believe me when i say something works.

What map. A lot of times failures come for reasons other than a simple conversion. Biggest reason is usually a protected map (which Harbinger doesn't check for).

I was able to successfully convert it to a playable map. Make sure to use a stock maps folder and not touch any of the related files during the conversion process.

I take it it can not convert the "bitmaps.map" from pc to ce.

Lambda · Post by **Lambda** » Sat Dec 29, 2007 9:38 pm

heh Scorpion, the truth is you don't have to
just take a CE map with all the bitmaps you want in it, make sure the header is right for PC, then rename that old map bitmaps.map

Why would it need to? Also the CE bitmaps.map work in the Halo:pc game, it jsut makes everything seem corrupt due to the fact that it has differnt positions for each bitmap.

@lambda
Nice, i thought most people forgot that info.

I'm getting the same exception with the mac version as dydomite0 was getting earlier: "An exception of class OutOfBoundsException was not handled. The application must shut down."

I have a completely untouched maps folder, the map is not protected (floodgulch), and I have also tried re-installing harbinger multiple times (on multiple different computers). I am on a macbook with leopard, and the other computer I tried was an iBook G4 with tiger.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Shep

P.S. I attached the found1s.txt file.
