h2. Getting Started

1. First we need to test the "jungle.bank" to make sure its setup correctly.

Launch tile_edit_r.exe (C:\ryzom\code\nel\tools\3d\tile_edit\).

Press "Load" then navigate to C:\database\landscape\_texture_tiles\jungle\jungle.bank and open it.

Click on the button next to "Absolute path".

Change the path to "C:\Database\landscape\_texture_tiles\jungle".

Goto " http://dev.ryzom.com/wiki/ryzom/AddingANewContinent "and test the bank by doing steps 19-22 using the "jungle.bank".

If it shows correctly move on to the next steps.
