Old Radiant mapper with a new problem

JK Hub,

 

I haven't mapped in years  and recently caught the bug again to do it for JA.

 

I'm using Win7 as an OS.

 

After numerous attempts and installs of GTK 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, I haven't been able to get one saved file to load or compile.

 

I have seen every kind of error message pop up without any resolutions online, so far:

 

- dll error or file missing upon start up of 1.4

- "No such file or directory found" in 1.3 and 1.4 (log). The sample files just aren't being saved; regardless of the "win32" checkbox being vacated.

- crashing of 1.3 and 1.4 upon opening sample .map files that I made

- no textures showing up in 1.5 or 1.6

- unable to save .map files in 1.5 or 1.6

 

I still have no basic map file loaded or compiled after a day of going through downloads and forums. Do you have any suggestions for the problems I've encountered?

Strange... the save bug is known in 1.4 but should be fixed in 1.6. If you disable the win32 checkbox in 1.4 you need to manually add the .map to the filename.

 

Where are you saving the maps? Do you have UAC enabled? Do you run the radiant with admin rights?

mrwonko,

 

The first suggestion you gave me worked.

 

Simply adding the ".map" at the end of one of the trial maps I created (in 1.4) was enough to correct the problem. The map could be loaded and compiled.

 

Thank you very much for the prompt response!
