Hello, I'm new with Torque Constructor and I have a question. I'm making an interior map for TGE but I encountered a problem. I wanted to try my map so i exported it with the tool "Torque game engine (map2dif plus)". The message contained some errors :
"Converting scene to map ...
Map: C:/DOCUME~1/AZERTY~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/couloir pourri.map

So, with map2dif, I can put the map into TGE, but there is no texture. With "dif" it's invisible, and with "dif legacy" Torque crashes.
I don't know what to do. I spent a lot of time reading tutorials and forums on internet, but without any result.
I hope someone could help me.
Thanx for answering so quickly

Does anyone know how to solve my problem ? I really need a solution, and I can't get it without your help. It's very important, I'm working for an exam.

If you can zip up your CSX file along with the textures and place a link here (or just email me the file), I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can help.

Try taking out the spaces in the filename.

I tried it, but without any result. There are no texture, and somes brushes are missing, there are bugs.

Sent you an email with some suggestions. I used the built-in "Export to DIF" and didn't have the errors you saw... are you using Constructor 1.0.4 and TGE 1.5.2? Also after dropping your dif into Torque, you might look at the console (~) and make sure you don't have missing texture warnings or other errors. If Torque crashes with some kind of "Invalid Packet" error, it's most likely due to a missing texture.
