Post by vote1sanches »

C:\program files\microsoft games\halo custom edition>tool bitmaps building1\bitmaps
Couldn't read map file'./toolbeta.map'
###building1.tif
skipping bitmap with non-power-of-two demensions <#320x#640#1>

The size of the bitmap has to be a power of 2... which means it has to be:

64x64
128x128
256x256
512x512
etc.

The dimensions you have for it now aren't powers of two, hence the error.
