Hello all --

I went into AW tonight and then Wildaw and was greeted by the following
messages from the Building Inspector. I tried rebooting but I still had
the same problem. Anyone else experience this or have any idea why it is
happening?

1. there might be bugs in someones "create texture" command
or in one of AW's standard objects
tree10.jpg / tree10m.zip do exist
it is tree10m.jpg / tree10m!.zip

2. you have debug enabled

Uncheck "Object Errors" under Options/Settings/Advanced

Isn't it neat how AW works as intended? There is no problem here except for your lack of understanding what "file not found" means. Have you tried to go to these URLs in a web browser? They don't exist. AW is simply reporting the obvious.

why would you tell them to turn off error listing? it is a very useful tool
for determining internet connectivity problems. Eep was correct the errors
are because someone used texture names in object action fields that do not
exist in the AW object path. (useful for knowing that there is a problem so
whomever built the object can hunt for it and fix it.)

[View Quote] should have been "do not exist", sorry

> it is tree10m.jpg / tree10m!.zip
