Well, I think I am getting closer .... It's true, I had a load.ini problem - never renamed MWmap_c.tga_table (DOH!!!!), but now I still get a Windows memory error message, that makes me quit the program and re-boot my machine (because the graphics card gets stuck in the resolution of my IL 2 game settings - much lower than my windows settings).
Memory error message reads:
It sure would be nice to figure this out. I'd hate to give this up - just tonight, I happened to learn that an old friend from Guam, who was visiting up here in Saipan, now has a job that entails some responsibility for the WWII archives stored at the War in the Pacific National Park. He offered to assist me with the research for this map.
EDIT: Edited to fix a glaring typo (a few beers under me belt tonight) and to thank everyone who responded so far - I have learned a lot already. For example, I deleted the contents of my actors.static file, though that wasn't the problem. Like I said above, I have compiled a respectable collection of tips related to mapbuilding, and I think that, combined with some simple narrative about what goes into making a map, could be quite useful for others who follow.
So the info of what files, at a bare minimum, are necessary to start the map building process, is extremely useful.
Thank you.
