Just a quick question.. Im aware the .MOS editor does not work on Vista or Windows 7 but does this apply to whole Terrain SDK package? I tried running the make_gsl application and it didnt seem to do much!

Chris - have you kept it in the folder it comes in? ie it also has a number of other files that it draws info from. Take your .csv to the make_gsl and not the other way round! :isadizzy:

Clive has the right idea using it.
There's other data files included in the SDK that the make_gsl reads from.
The way I use mine, I added an extra folder in the Terrain SDK, named it original, and keep a safe copy of the global_layer in it.
In the main Terrain SDK folder, I have copys of both the global_layer, and the gsl. When I do any changes to the global_layer, their done to that copy, and saved.
Using the make_gsl is done in that same folder. After making the new gsl, then it's simply copying the global_layer and gsl into CFS3, letting those files overwrite the existing ones.

Thanks for the replies. Ive had a go at it again. Im putting the new global_layer file into the same folder that has the make_gsl batch file in. Its asking me to over write the original global_layer folder so I select yes. I then run the make_gsl batch file and a black box appears with some writing in it and then disappears before I can read what it says. This used to happen on my old system so it seems to be running. A gsl.lib file used to appear after I did that on the old system but its not happening now... Cheers Clive by the way for sending me back the files I sent you! At the moment I think its only the later version of Westhampnett I still do not have which is the one I was working on when my computer died. Was hoping to make a start on Middle Wallop this week but Ive run into a few problems such as this one!

I'll send you my entire SDK global layer folder tonight when home again to see if that helps, you may be missing something.
