<div class="IPBDescription">Strange Error</div> I seem to get a "Bad surface extends 80/28160" error. I'v no idea what it means and why it happens as I reverted to an older save and get the same error.

    ok i just copy pasted this from snarkpit <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    "Bad surface extents"
    Caused by some dodgy texturing (either from scaling them up, or clipping) or an invalid solid
    ?Check for errors; fix any occurrence of "texture axis perpendicular to face"
    ?Scale down any textures that have been scaled up greater than 10 or so times
    ?Use a lower -chop value (if you're not using the default value)

    Sometimes this error occurs because the mapper selected an object and used the texture alignment button "fit". If there's a small enough face, the texture scale will go too low and cause this error.

    Thanks, I manage to fix it eventually.
