Bug in Editor

[truckingpete]

I was making a new map...after i was done with it..well almost done, i saved it.

I came back later the same day and I opened it..well this is where the problem comes up..

Instead of the map I made it..it was all PURPLE! I tried to open another map..purple...

I restarted my computer...i opened the same map..purple...

What is wrong with the editor??

Thanks!

My editor works fine. I could only suggest you try reinstalling civ3 and conquests, can't really hurt at this point.

Did you try modding graphics?

 

[Chieftess]

Can you take a screenshot? Are you seeing purple (or is it pink?) on every tile? Or just some of the tiles? Did you mod your resources/terrain graphics? They need to be saved in a correct manner (256 colors, PCX file, and must have the correct transparency color - usually hot pink).

I attached a screen shot so you can see waht is wrong..

the color is kinda purplish pink..it has more pink in it though..

i opend the editor this night and it was find when i opened my map up..

You didn't change any graphics files? This looks like the typical pallete mess up.

Those yellow diamonds come from the Landmark Terrain overlay. That's a clue, at least.

 

[truckingpete]

I was wondering what those triangles were??

Thats what the whole map looks like...

You didn't change anything? I ask because I'm seen this plenty of times when I've forgotten to set the palette correctly for modded graphics.

all i did was install the game..i didnt touch anything....
