I have been bashing about with MSSQL
using
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 4
&
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
as I have vista and apartently editot dislikes vista.

did the ODBC thing with
"."
as local server would not appear.
XP compatibility mode and run as admin for Mapeditor.exe

it worked right once with loading maps and such not it just displays a blank grid. and wont rotate or pan view.

But what I am looking for is "dataimport.exe"
as apparently you cannot save a mod without this 1mb file which is nowhere to be seen.
So basically all my headbanging has been for naught as whats the point of opening and edinting the db in blueshell if you cant creat the "mod.db" file part of the actual usable part.

Need the /tools

where to get!!

you can get the tools here:
http://www55.zippyshare.com/v/34096074/file.html

Just put the tools folder into the main Silent Storm folder

good work getting the map editor to run btw... it can be a huge pain sometimes

I did actually notice that the tools folder was missing from the downloadable MapEdit at strategycore... I'm gonna try contact them about it or get them to host this upload
