Installing AI Map Mars_03_Fun seems to fail, it overwrites aspilo00.MAP and thats were the error comes from.
Try not to overwrite it when asked..

it gives a map size error because it overwrites an existing texture?
Sorry, but that makes as much sense as saying that your left sock smells because you wear an ear ring.

delete the texture then and it will get the default from the zfs.

Copy-overwriting with the TRO sprite tables seems to fix this for some reason, too. Might as well be magic to me though, I have no idea how it works...

1.5.1.9 is much more tolerant about texture size but it's still good form to ensure that textures are at least power-of-two if not square. GPUs have supported non-square textures for years, but many only support non-power-of-two textures with no mipmaps (typically HUD/UI). Unless a texture has unusual UV wrapping requirements, it's best to pack non-square and non-power-of-two textures into a texture sheet.

I give mine an alpha'ed or extra boarder to bump up image size.
