Buldozer

[Nephris1]

Hi folks
i am feeling like a dumbass.
I am not able to get buldozer loading.
I setup Visitor in order of Sgt.Ace Tutorial, afer trying to load in Buldozer i get an error : the lauchn of buldozer failed.

So guess the path to it is wrong, i checked each possiblity but nothing worked.
So i hope u can help me.

My Arma dir is
D:\ArmA2

The working dir is default P:/

So what should be the path to buldozer?

"d:\pathtoarma\arma2.exe" -window - buldozer

"d:\pathtoarma\arma2.exe" -window - buldozer

Yeah that was the key!

I fear i ve to add another post to that thread ....

I set path to realtime viewer to d:
I set command to launch bulldozer to "D:\ArmA2\arma2.exe" -window -buldozer

I this case the path to "Folder-Textures/Folder-Objects" (@Project Prefs) is automatically set to d:/
But my project folder (all my island files) are on p:/...


When i now change the path to realtime viewer to p:
the path to "Folder-Textures/Folder-Objects" is correct on p:/...
but on startup of Visitor i get an error message

no entry bin\config.cppCFGVoiceTypes

, followed by

shaders not valid.(mismatch exe and data

So what is the workaround for that misery?

I hope i point out my prob, ...tell me if i shall post screenshots.

The extracted bin.pbo in your p:/ drive must match the arma2.exe version you are using for buldozer.

If you are pointing to the arma2.exe in the game then the bin folder in p:\ must be the same as the bin.pbo that the game is using.

The same goes for other files in p:\ like config.cpp etc that are relevant to the arma2.exe you are using.

Sorry too stupid to understand.
The p:/ already comes after install with an extracted bin.
I didnt extract any bin to p:/

FFS Wrp tool was so user friendly ....

I can point to my arma2.exe in my game installation only or not?

"d:\pathtoarma\arma2.exe" -window - buldozer

My game is at d:/games/arma2
The stuff that had to be extracted went into the folder SgtAce said in his tut.
I did it the 3rd time right now using the Tutorial....

No price for the second place...didnt get it working .

If you are using arma2.exe from your present game version then you need to replace the bin folder in p:/ with the extracted bin.pbo from your present game version too, otherwise there is a mismatch.

Any advantages using latest beta arma2.exe instead of buldozer.exe on P:?

I´m having problems with Buldozer.

I have OA Standalone. Buldozer was working after I set everything up as listed by the bis editing wiki, but when running I could not see anything writen in the menus buttons when pressing F1 or anything.

After that I tried to alter the program preferences: path to realtime viewer to arma2oa folder to c:
and using arma2oa -buldozer command line. It opened buldozer, alright, working menu buttons but could not load the textures to my custom map located at p:

now I have problems with shaders and everything else. Buldozer wont load anymore
