I did not download and extract rmcore to the rmw1165 folder. My desktop shortcut runs the latest version out of its folder.
That was the problem. Not sure how often rmcore changes. I wonder if you have to get a fresh one with each version. The new exe version is always an rmwxxxx zip folder. And I set my desktop shortcut to run the exe from that folder. But the rmcore files must be in there for it to work properly. Roger helped me figure it out.

There is where you set the path to store the files and the server to download from the internet. The second place you have to make sure you have set properly is when you are drawing the map. When the dialog window comes up to draw the map and you set the map size and vertical scale, you have the option of selecting the path for your SRTM or BIL terrain data files. This needs to match the location you have set under the options-internet-srtm program settings.

C:\RM\Geodata\srtm1 And I locked it down to local files only, it persists on looking in the root directory of C: It will not follow the path. From: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2017 4:16 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AFMUG] OT RM I have had this problem before. One copy of RM on one computer does not seem to be able to find SRTM. When looking for files it looks for them in the root of C drive and apparently nowhere else. This copy used to work just fine. I have not changed anything. Have some of the internet sources of this data changed? I was just using it on a different computer earlier in the day. It has to be a config problem.
