Can't get the Dawn of Man image to load.

[Antagonise]

I've tried over and over, but I just can't get the game to load Qin_DOM.dds. What am I doing wrong here?

Some screenshots:

Spoiler :

I've tried with and without Import to VFS, I've renamed the image, readded it to the mod, etc. It's 1024x768 as it's supposed to be. Something I'm missing?

Also, while I'm here can someone tell me the right size for the map you give your civ? I've tried a few things but it always seems to be slightly wrong. I thought I had the right size (copied from another mod to make sure) but parts of them map come outside the border as shown below:

Yeah this has happened to me previously as well when self-testing my own mods, the Import to VFS is not something that I still dont fully understand, someone experienced should get on this quick.

The right size for the map is 360 x 412.

When you save the .dds file for the DOM image, you need to get the compression right. In GIMP, it's exported with the compression BC2/DXT3. I hope this helps!

I always set it to true, otherwise none of the images seem to load. I don't know what it is though.

Brilliant, both are working properly now, thanks!
