    Re: Zone 0.2

    The map crashes on load because you seem to have included a colormap file from Karkand and it's trying to load it from the Karkand folder. It'll only work for people who have unzipped their client.zip in the Karkand folder (basically no one).

    You can organize a playtest on server 2 or something if you want (ask the admins) but you can't expect a beta version of a map to be put on Server 1...my map wasn't put on server 1 until it was 100% finalized which took me months.

    Oh this is a Karkand remake? I thought it was an update of that desert map you made.

    The map doesn't work man. You must have forgot to resave the terrain and color/detail textures because the map files are trying to use the Strike_at_Karkand/colormap&detailmap files which will only be there if the person has his map unzipped, as I stated above. Even after unzipping my karkand files, your map still didn't have any detailmaps so the ground was completely black.

    Before releasing a map for download, always pack it and then rename your map's folder temporarily. Then "install" your map from your packaged map file and see if it works, because that's what the people who download it will have. If you test your map without changing the name of your folder it's just going to use the files that are inside the Editor folder of your map (which the people who download your map won't have) and it's going to work but only for you.

    ok I will try to organize a playtest on server 2, do you have any ideas how I should do it?

    One drawback is that the map is designed for a minimum of 40 players.

    It keeps on loading those colormaps from the original Karkand folder, no matter if I save it. Any suggestions?
