I am seeking assistance regarding a bottleneck in my WinProp workflow. When setting up a new project in ProMan and selecting Rural and Suburban Scenarios (Pixel databases), the interface requires three mandatory files: Topography, Clutter (Pixel database), and Class Definitions (.mct).
While I can successfully convert the first two databases using WallMan, I am consistently unable to obtain the third required file (.mct). My workflow is as follows:
- Topography: Converted from OpenTopography data to .tdb - Works fine.
- Clutter and Conversion: I am using Copernicus (Corine Land Cover) data in GeoTIFF format and Converted to .mdb using WallMan’s conversion tool (due to the large size of the original file, I used QGIS to crop the area of interest and exported a smaller GeoTIFF) - Works fine
The Issue: WallMan successfully converts the pixel data but fails to output the accompanying .mct file. Without this "dictionary" file, ProMan cannot interpret the pixel IDs (e.g., Copernicus codes 112 or 312) or assign heights and clutter losses to them. Furthermore, attempting to manually create the class table in WallMan after conversion often leads to "Database type not supported" errors or grayed-out menu options.
The Problem: The conversion process did not automatically generate the .mct file.

Any insights or guidance on how to move forward would be very helpful. Thank you in advance!
