Hi Aaron.
Your daily torment is again here... :P
Another bug (2.5 beta 3). After that i've imported a Terragen heightfield and i wnat to split it into mosaic through Operations > Active map > Split into mosaic... appear this in Event log:
Code: Select all
CMainFrame::OnCalcMosaicSplit error:
 - cannot get map name

Maybe could be strictly closed to bug described in this topic:

Cheers.

Mauro.

Hi Mauro,

Thanks for the bug report. All of these recent bugs relate to a change in the way L3DT internally addresses maps, which is intended to make it more extensible and more in-line with the plugin API. Clearly I need to do a lot more checking here. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,
Aaron.

Urgh...that little dialog took hours to fix. The way it was, it should never have worked at all, and by rights probably should have been throwing exceptions. Unfortunately, I missed this because a couple of bugs and some clever default arguments for functions combined to re-interpreted the invalid output when you select the 1st option (usually HFF) as the default format (also usually HFF). Thus, as I apparently only ever tested this dialog with HFF (it was the only option when written), it 'appeared' to work OK.

Anyhoo, now fixed. We're on version 2.4 beta build 4.
