Because those don't exist? ^^

Hello again, I'm back :devil: Aaand, I've got 2 questions for you. Well, 1 question and 1 discussable subject rather :D . So, let me come to the point. 1) In the map I've been working on I've been screwing around in the "map properties tree" lately. My eye fell on 4 specific functions; Ref...

Post seems a bit old, but I found something I have to add (even though most of you probaly already know this :) ). As I found out in the dead man's lake map, you can place multiple grail objects, and the grail will then randomly be one of those objects. So if you want a specific random location, you...

I've been having partially your problem; I've got a town in my map, for which I picked the +ore specialization and inserted a custom name+description. Ever since I did that the town specialization refuses to save. I need to reset the town specialization manually before saving everytime, else it will...

I'm experimenting on the 8 towns thing. Last time I tried my map had 9 towns and was playable, so it shouldn't interrupt from showing. I think none of the errors you get while trying to save stop the map from showing, they're just there as a reminder that some things might be incorrect (I've got a w...

Hmmm actually thanks a lot... I might've had that problem too, as I too have monoliths close to water in my map. . Could Ossir ship version move by the way? Or else disembark?

I think you've missed something very important; the co-ordinates your mouse are hovering over can -always- been seen in the interface, just look at the small beam at the bottom of your window. This makes the placing hellalot easier and should solve some problems

Strange, both maps "Forged in hate" and "Lands" that I sent back to you did work nicely for me. Could open them in editor and play as a hotseat game. Maybe you still need to reinstall the game (or editor)? Hmm well, I think I'll stick to this now, before things screw up again. S...

1) Modify signposts so they bring up a window instead of a floating text that disappears too quickly for my tastes? 2) Modify "Military Posts" so that I can either set the armies defending them, or remove the armies defending them by default? 3) How the heck does the Sear Hut work? Both 1...

And to add in, I don't believe there's an undo function, so save frequently. That's what I've been doing at least.

I voted topmost, it runs smoothly for me 99% of the time. you know that button you can press in top tool bar that displays the AI pathing, shows the red blocked areas? when i press the button, it takes about 20 seconds to calculate and show the unblocked paths. im serious, i timed it. its impossible...

Can't you just fully zoom out, disable grid, and take a screenshot for an overview?

I've got tons of back-ups, had something like this happened earlier so I'm a bit fanatic on pressing the save/save as button :D . I've just figured what I'm going to do; I'll mail you all files that belong to my map, I'll back-up all custom maps I have, and then I'll do a nice clean reïnstall of the...

Alright... it's getting seriously weird now. I've looked it all up, but all seemed to be correct, it still didn't work though. What I did though, was pick the original map (Lands at stake). Lost my volcano that way, but at least I got the map. I renamed the folder in there to 'Multiplayer' and guess...

Hmmm... this really is my day isn't it... It's indeed "Multiplayer", but the crash still occurs. I've looked around in the txt files as well, but can't find any path name or anything there.

Thanks for the help by the way, hope this can be solved...

Mozared

Aww, dammit. It all seemed to work, but now by editor crashes as soon as I try to open the map :disagree: . Are you sure it should be "MultiPlayer", and not "MultiPlayers"? As "SingleMissions" is also plural. *Still trying* Mozared EDIT: Some extra info; might it have s...

Hello, I'm Mozared. Thus my introduction. Now to move on: I've been making a map for heroes of might and magic 5, mainly for private use [to play with palls], but I've stumbled upon a problem. I've got quite some experience with editors [ I've made a couple of heroes 3/4 maps, but the experience I m...
