Using the Map Editor

Yes, STEVEO told me after he updated to 1.39 and tested it!
At least something done well then!

one version freak show, the next one, regular. What is wrong with SCS?

Who knows, no stability at all!

This version is good with me up to so far, but SCS should try to make good upgrades at most!

I've been trying to do some signs for ZAMAP following ep.11 and I had no problem on following , now what I managed to do looks like this in ME:







This is in Gameplay:



What I'm trying to ask here is, do I have to rename the boards like i.e[sign_board.z25] or do I have to rename like [sign_board.z01].
Here is my current def files to clarify what are we talking about:https://sharemods.com/g3oi12z4quh6/Def___Map.scs.html

you have a mix of templates, some with linked boards some without. IDK today if both methods will stand.
Second, seams like the game is not loading your atlas and fonts.
This situation can have many reasons.
The best way is to look in the game log when you are next to that sign. It will tell you what it can do or not.
Editor and game logs are great resources to help you fix stuff.

Hello everyone! "Failed to create the output file- the map IS NOT saved, backups have been advanced" Write this when I want to save the map. What should I do then?

[Arayas]

First of all make sure you have created your base_map file in corect location. Make is sure is not "read only". The things in editor are not working when something is not doned right (altough everybody believe they doned right). Just verify.

Good morning Sir Arayas.

I'm so thankful in your tutorials videos only few people who are willing to do this kind of thing for the community. I'm trying to make a standalone map for ATS and I follow your video, but unfortunately I cannot Run the Map on editor after loading it goes back in the editor. I have my game log available, just tell how and where can I send it to you. Thank you very much for your help :)

You are probably starting the editor in the wrong way or haven't
configured the working paths correctly, so do as I told in the short
message in the disapproval of your wrongly posted game log!
