Hello

trying to make my first dod:s map, and tried to test run, and during compiling it says:

The command failed. Windows reported the error: "the system cannot find the file specified"

Have looked at the compiling error sites, and none seem to have this type of problem.

What have i done wrong?

cheers for any help
