Im trying to combine 2 files using this program, but it just coughs up some bogus error about not having enough storage space to process the command.
Anybody have any ideas how to fix this?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Combine 2 files? You mean you're exporting stuff from 1 to another? Or what

HH8-Combine, surely you know of it? it was made for combining the mir2 armours with the wings, before humeffects were supported in private servers.

im trying to use it though, and when I try to create the new file, from the 2 im combining, i get an error about not having enough storage space

Oh, no I had never heard of it before now actually lol. I wasn't active during 1.9 days. Is it wings and armours your trying to join or something else?

ahh, fair dos mate, no, im taking some of the mobs from mir3, but im trying to give them proper mir2 shadows. I've worked out what the problem was though. Seems the program doesnt like wils created with Kaori's MIM. it works fine with wils created with HH8, but damn is this program slow.

Oh right. Have you tried the shadow conversion function on Kaori's MIM? Never tried it myself so don't know if it actually works

Also you could try converting the wil's to type 1 in MIM before using them in HH8 see if that makes any difference

I heard about this shadow thing in MIM, but ive never seen anything to do with shadows in the program its self... but yeah, the wils are type 1, but the combine program still wont read them

When you go to save/rebuild the wil there should be a popup asking if you want to convert the shadows

ooooh i see! yes that is very handy indeed! I was manually converting the solid black shadows from mir3 to the checkered style shadows in mir2, and it was proving to be a real pain because of them losing image data due to the conversion to 8bit. this has helped immensly. Cheers tai.
