Wow. This is outstanding. You have come a long way since those old applications you used to release on Anthony's website.

Immediate download after that line :D

Probably just me, but whenever I try to open it from the RAR (or do I need to remove the folder?) and try to launch it, I'm immediately told that "Prophet has encounted a problem and needs to close."

I would unrar it... My winrar seems to have trouble temporarily extracting files.

Ah, that did the job.

Call me a noob, but when I import a .DDS, where does it go? And what do the 3 levels of details mean?

Those are the LODs. When in-game, the game doesn't use the same "highres" textures once you get a certain distance away from the object.

Works for me, and seemingly everyone else. Perhaps a screen-shot of the positionings of your mouse when you did indeed try clicking these buttons?

It's slightly laggy I noticed, and so unless that's just the screencap, try closing down all other open windows. If that doesn't work then I'm not sure what it is :\

i did have open windows, but for some reason, as soon as my recording program was recording Prophet, the recorded video started to lag, even though for me, prophet was still working fine

chances r i might b able to get u to recreate the glitch;
  • open turf in Prophet cause thats the map i noticed it in

    if urs loads like mine, it should start off with the bottom half of the screen solid blue(the area underneath the map)

    click that blue area once, then click anything on the map to bring up that options window, then test the bottom few buttons
not sure why, but for some reason, that begining click event on a non selectable object is causing the click positioning to be off

one last thing, do i have ur permission to put this program on another site?

I only have beavercreek on the computer I'm currently on at the moment, and doing as you said on that map didn't cause the click-area to go off. I'm not sure why it would anyway, there's definitely no code there to make it do so.. I'll test with turf later I guess, once I get the chance.

or not i guess then, some ppl dont care too much others do, and i respect other ppls views
although i dont think anyone can say that they havnt ever downloaded a song or movie, and i would bet most moders at some point have probably downloaded cracks, keygens and serial #s, etc for something and thats all illegal
