Visual Munge is not munging

Wow, it has been like 2 days since my last request for help, what a surprise. :( Alright, this time the problem is when i am munging my map, which i am only doing to look at a few changes i made. I get 1 of three problems every time I try to munge.

1. My munge output has a lot of, "the system cannot find the file specified," and i cannot figure out why it cannot find the files as i have them all on my computer.

Also, my munge log looks like this:

2. I try munging and a black box with text appears. I am not sure why this occurs or what the text says as I never have had enough time to read it, and i can't seem to make it appear whenever I want. whatever the case, the munge process is much shorter and takes like 2 seconds, as opposed to the apprximated minute it takes in problem 1. According to the munge output, everything should be fine.

3. This munge goes by so fast I cannot even react. The munge output show absolutely nothing.

All of these scenarios result in absolutely no world appearing to be put into battlefront 2.

Any help would be appreciated.

What folder did you install the mod tools in?
Where is your VisualMunge.exe file?
Can you open the localization tool? Try opening it through DOS (open a command line window to the correct folder, then type in the tool's bat file name and press enter)

What folder did you install the mod tools in?
Originally, it was on my desktop. Now it is in ( 's folder )
Where is your VisualMunge.exe file?
's file/BF2_ModTools/data_AGE/_BUILD
Can you open the localization tool? Try opening it through DOS (open a command line window to the correct folder, then type in the tool's bat file name and press enter)
I am afraid I do not understand exactly what you mean.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know what folder 's is, but it needs to be installed somewhere without spaces in its path. A good place is something like: c:/bf2_modtools

Backup your mod map, uninstall the mod tools, then reinstall them in a better place. Copy your map back in. Do a full/manual clean and munge again (make sure to check Common only)

Well, I followed your instructions [RDH]Zerted, and the good news is that i got a completely different Munge output, which appeared to be very good and took about 5 minutes. It only had a few cases where it said it could, "not find the path specified." This is my PC_MungeLog:
Hidden/Spoiler:
ERROR[PC_modelmunge msh\geo_bldg_geoturret.msh]:AddSegment(geo_bldg_geoturret:shadowvolume): shadow mesh edge 216 / 226 is invalid (edge next == twin == 217)
WARNING[PC_modelmunge msh\geo_bldg_hangar.msh]:geo_bldg_hangar has 3981 vertices and NO COLLISION GEOMETRY (WILL BE SLOW)!
1 Errors 1 Warnings

WARNING[terrainmunge world2\geo1.ter]:ReduceTerrainTextureUsage: corner discontinuity at (112,136)
0 Errors 1 Warnings
I don't understand what it means exactly.

Any help would be appreciated.

Edit:
Why am I asking this. Lol, the answer is pretty obvious i guess. Sorry for wasting your time if you read this last post, because it is a very stupid question now that I look at it more closely.

Anyway, thanks for your help [RDH]Zerted, this thread can now be locked.
