I Am A Quark N00b

Could someone please help me with a little QuArK problem I'm having. I'm simply using QuArK for reference while I rebuild the Port Engine Room of ns_nancy.

So I loaded up nancy and got pretty far I see the map wireframe etc. I have added the correct NS plugin's (all two and then the default HL one) and configured my paths, or at least I think I've configured my paths...

QuArK won't let me into 3d View the only place I really care about! It can't find gfx/palette.lmp. OK, that's weird I know that palette.lmp is in the HL .pak file and it should be able to find it there. BUT get this, covering my bases I added a gfx folder to my main HL Dir. with palette.lmp in it. I stuck palette.lmp in the gfx folders of both valve and ns directories as well, AND I stuck the HL Pak. file in the ns directory. I told you I covered ALL my bases.

However, sadly it STILL cannot find it. I'd really like some help I think QuArK would make my remodeling life easier, hey I might even use it's Leak Finder from time to time. I prolly missed something since I'm so use to VHE.

Well, thanks for the help all/

    Sorry, I don't quite understand it. The 3D-views work fine for me and I don't know why QuArK would need this palette file. Could you tell us step by step what you click at from loading QuArK? What version do you use?

    Absolutely, I am running QuArK Ver. 6.3.0. With the QuArK NS2 Support Plug-Ins.

    Step by Step:

    I Open Quark. I go to File > Open and open the file "ns_nancy". My computer crunches for a bit and then it displays a box with ns_nancy at the top as the title. 1.e. Where it says Internet Explorer or your browsers name right now it would say ns_nancy. In that dialog it has a tree view of things in ns_nancy. At the very top of the tree veiw it says "ns_nancy." I double Click the name "ns_nancy", my computer crunches again and then I see two wireframe views of the map. I then go to Layout > Full 3D View and it displays in a support box a blue backgrounded screen with white text saying, " QuArK needs the file 'gfx/palette.lmp' from Half-Life and could not find it. You must set up the path[s] tp Half-Life in the configurations dialog box."

    I have included a shot of my Half-Life Config. Dialog Box.

    I have also snooped around the 3D View settings but nothing says anything about specifying the location of an .lmp file.

    I'm guessing by the way that 60 people have viewed this and not even Nerd knew ^_^ that this is a weird fluke, or rather a problem that no one else here has had. I appreciate your time and everything I hope someone can find an answer but to be honest I like VHE and I was just going to use QuArK on this particular instance, so it's no real biggy.

    Thanks everybody,

    Add the correct things to the "installed addons" button?
