Ok, so I install soldat on my machine (vid card: Trident Blade 3D, 3.5 mb RAM (laugh it up, should have a new one soon)). I run it, and get "Error loading texture: C:\soldat\sparks-gfx\explosion\smoke3.bmp". Fine, I do some research. My DirectX is up to date, and the vid card is installed fine w/ updated drivers. So I uninstall soldat, and delete the directory from my C drive and restart. I install Soldat again, and restart again. Still the same error. I go out on a limb and make a generic little bmp and name it "Smoke3.bmp" and put it in the above mentioned directory (I figured this wasnt the case as I can already see a bmp called "smoke3.bmp" there) and still the same error, and I am stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
