Title: Help me please [ MTA Question ]
Post by: Supreme on February 26, 2012, 19:39
I mapped something in MTA and I worked very hard... I saved it nicely and tested it severly times if I could open it, it worked.
But now I try to load the project, but everything is gone  :'(
I worked more than 2 hours on it.


Can someone help me?  :-\
How to get the project back?


BTW: When I click 'LOAD', I still see the project, but nothing is in the map :(

Go to Object List and double click a random object to locate it. Then just see what happened

haha i had the same issue xD


I saved my projects as: konali island
but as droc said, mta doesnt reconise map files with a space in it.


So when u saved ur maps with a space, change the names and metafile and it would load it.

if you named it "my map" you have to change the name to "my_map" (without quotes of course) then you need to do a couple of things to get it to load
1. rename it with the _ in it of course
2. open your meta file and where it says map name and map source and change the following:



<info type="map"name="my_map" author="author of map (should be your name you use on MTA)" version="1.0.2"></info>
    <map src="my_map.map" dimension="0"></map>


then File>Save your meta and then reload your MTA or simply disconnect/reconnect if already loaded up.


good luck mate

And if you go to the folder from mta where it saves the maps, are they there?
