It would probably help if you would tell us the error message

You need to use a ThinkTanks mission not a Torque mission.
The version of torque you made the terrain with is different then the one ThinkTanks was made with.
Torque adds a bunch of sky stuff that is not compatible with ThinkTanks.
Open a ThinkTanks mission and look at the first section and compare the difference with the Torque mission.
Those differences are the problem.
Also double check the paths on all linked files, make sure the paths are correct for ThinkTanks game folder. Especially the detail file and the stuff.

Max, do you know how I can change that path? Like Torque is using demo/data/terrains path, ThinkTanks game/data/terrains path.

I'm not sure what you mean "how do I change that path?"
Type or copy/paste the text?

Like I already said. Open one of the original ".mis" files and your new ".mis" file and compare.
Open it with a text editor.

I used dashes maps to make a terrain not torques maps

I also used dash's mission D4.mis

Oohooohoohooohooohooohoohoooo! XO

Max I meant terrain paintings... I think that's becouse terrains made with TGE are trying to take paintings from demo/data/terrains folder.

ˆ That's why comes invalid packet message? :o

How do I open a TT mision with TGE?

Ok the problem can be fixed with just a slight change in the mission file. Find this:

(its not gonna be pushed back)

And replace it with this:

Do you mean to tell me you are using TGE textures and not ThinkTanks textures?
No wonder everybody has been having problems.
Don't all the tutorials tell you to copy/paste the TT stuff into TGE?

Also do you all know that an expansion pack has been created for ThinkTanks?
This expansion pack contains a ton of new textures, trees, rocks, bushes and skies.
The best part is that we all have them already so we don't have to download from your game server.

@ godzillazghost - Please stop Spamming the forum

@MAX-CR:- is that expansion pack for mac cause its not working :[

@Mr Big Show:- ok ill try that. Ill post again later to tell you if it worked or not ;)

@My godzillazghost:- WOULD YOU STOP SPAMMING SAYING "your ghost is back to haunt you" XO XO XO XO XO. If you have a question or something you want to add do so.

@ GODZILLA
The Expansion Pack is for Mac, Windows and Linux. The pack had been tested and verified buy experienced users of all platforms. I have all platforms in my server regularly which only runs mods with the expansion pack. If it doesn't work the instructions may not have been followed correctly.

And BTW: I am, have been, and will be MAC! I use TGE, Mod Wiz, and TT on my Mac but validate all of my terrains on both Mac and Windows. If I had a Linux box I would also validate there as well. If you need help maybe we can work something out. Not every mod will be satisfied by the expansion pack, but the major mod contributors like, Dash, Rooster, Monkee Man, myself will all be using items in the Expansion Pack. I would maybe start over with a clean install. Don't trash your old stuff, just rename it. We may be able to slavage some stuff.
If you want me to take a look at your mod and try to determine where the difficulty lies, send the mission and terrain files to me @ napalm_tt@yahoo.com
