[Help!] problem with road templates

hi!

did a search but didn't find a solution for my problem... kind of desperate now... :-(

the roads don't show up in the resources bar. there's "road templates" but without a tree...

i have setup the editor according to the [Tutorial] Setting up the BF2 Editor for PR mapping/modding (wich leads me to a blank page at the moment btw..)

i can build roads by creating a new template - when i choose the primary or secondary texture layer - all roads are there...?!

then, when i load the map in the editor again it says: "error: no active road templates" and the roads that i've built and saved won't show up - just the splines... :? :

anyone had this problem before?
any ideas??

t.i.a.

in the mod manager set it to load the roads, and all the other folders as per my tut.

thanx for the fast reply! i marked everything in the mod manager and everything loads up except of the roads...

EDIT: i've also marked everything in the parent folder - still no roads.

i've also double checked my folder and the necesary client and server zips are unzipped. there's the d**n road folder - but it doesn't show up in the editor... :-(

what version of the editor are you using?

1.3 i think.. i'll just start it up to verify!

EDIT: uhmm - the file is called: bf2_editorsetup_aug02.exe

maybe a little bit out dated?? do i have the wrong version??? but i think i've downloaded it via the setup tut thread..

EDIT #2: ->help->aboutbf2editor says: v0.1.69.0 [2005|8|2]

Aug02 is the very first public beta version, that is why you can not see the roads, its one of its bugs.

you want BF2_EditorSetup_v1.3

damn! thanx for pointing me to it! you know i've made a hardware upgrade a few months ago, wich means of course - a complete reinstall of everything and somehow must be the old one got into it, lol. never thought about that, because evrything else worked fine...

thanx again, guess i've got another sleepless night now ;-)

a last question while dl'ing the 1.3 one: do i have to delete the old one or can i just install the new one over?

p.s.: the very first public beta version :d uh: :d uh: - what a noob i am after all that bf years ??! :-(
