Missing a map, even though I have it?

Postby LtSurge » 03 Oct 2016, 03:36

I'm trying to play a map with FAF that works on vanilla Forged Alliance, but FAF says I'm missing the
"
Code: Select all
scenario.lua
",
whatever the hell that is.

The prompt is able to tell that I have it before opening the game, but the game won't load the map. I tried enabling Obsolete Maps, with no success.

Full code:

Code: Select all
LtSurge is missing map /maps/iced mountains.004/iced mountains.004_scenario.lua


I HAVE this file where it needs to be, yet it still won't recognize that it's there.

Any takers?

find and open the scenario.lua file, it should have a bunch of paths that need to be correct otherwise you will get errors like these

Otherwise, try filesetting everything to not have whitespaces and capital letters
Goodluck, if it still doesnt work chuck me the map folder and ill try to edit the files from my mac xD

Oh okay. It looks like it will find it when I set "All" to AI Markers.

Also, when I started the game with AI, they say they have no markers. So I suppose that is the problem.

Although, I suppose the spaces are also a problem? Perhaps that's it. I'll keep testing. Thanks

AI markers are optional to maps, most mappers (me included) dont add ai markers and then the ai is programmed to have a sook if the map doesnt have them, that wont be your issue

downlords new uploader didnt like having white spaces " " in the files so i said it might help to replace spaces with underscores and see if that works.
