hi,everyone!

I created a map yesterday,but when I selected it in spring and clicked "test the game",a dialog appeared:

and this is how I create the map:

Code: Select all

mapconv -x 100 -n 50 -t texturemap.bmp -a heightmap.bmp -m metalmap.bmp -o exp.smf
the output is:
Loading texture

Couldn't find the program.
Couldn't find C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Mapconv\temp\temp*.bmp

Writing 0 features
a dialog appeared:
