<;' ( Polyworks ate my map
« on: October 26, 2006, 09:13:46 am »
I was remaking my map and suddenly something got fucked up and polyworks gave me an error

First error (cant remember, but it was all caps)
As i couldnt get anywhere from there i desperately tried to save the map... FAILED
then I tried compiling it... FAILED

double kill.

Then I closed polyworks and started it again and i selected my map to it to open and i get the second error (picture)

So now i cant open my map and when i do, Polyworks closes itself automatically.

Is my map dead?

I included my map (below) as a download, and if you can open it or modify it to make it work again ill be überhappy and give you... a barrel of e-cookies. and a hug. please.

Try opening it with mapmaker.

Edit: Polyworks ate your map.

Hmm... I'll see what I can do.

edit: I can recover the polys, but the scenery data is corrupt so the rest of it is probably lost.

edit: I think I can recover some of the scenery as well. Still working on it.

Anything will be great! The polygons are the most important tho...

MC: I did try that, but that got the map maker bugged totally and it froze my pc!

I think I managed to recover most of it: inf_heavensbase_.pms
It seems that the number of scenery being loaded was incorrect. I found a scenery count that worked and was able to load and resave the map.

I also made a small update to PW while I was at it.
