Hello people
I read this forum frequently, but now I have a problem.

I've tried to transcode the Aum's 58 autograss from WDL to LiteC, but it isnt working.

Here is the code I wrote:
Code:
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Special thanks go to Loopix for the grass models and to Nifty for the idea
// 1) Include svegetation.wdl in your project
// 2) Place a terrain entity inside the level and attach it the action named my_terrain. Set its skill1 and skill2 values.
// 3) Export the skin of the terrain and paint the areas where the grass and the trees are supposed to appear in green (R G B = 0 255 0)
// 4) Save the resulting file as colormap.tga and copy it inside your game folder. That's it!
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var skin_size_x; // the size of the skin (and the color map) in pixels
var skin_size_y; // on the x and y axis

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

STRING grass1_mdl = "gramacskins.mdl";
STRING grass2_mdl = "gramacskins.mdl";
STRING tree1_mdl  = "t3.mdl";
STRING colormap_tga = "teste.bmp";

The error that it gives me is that: Malfunction W1301: <>: Can't open file

After I click OK, all the level is loaded corretly, except for the grass.

Can you help me people?
Thanks!!
