After I get done loading my map, the Editor shows a black streak through the top, and not quite the entire map is shown. Any ideas what's going on?

Can you post a screenshot of this problem? Does this problem affect your ability to work with ZE? Has any major changes occur with your computer recently?

Yes. But just for that map I am currently working on.

None that should affect it. I can load my test map fine.

Ouch. That could be hardware issues. Maybe not though. Have you messed with anything in /data_[yourmap]/Editor/?

If other maps load fine try copying that world's data to a new map folder and running it again.

You can also try to copy over a new .exe from the data folder to that projects data folder. And if it doesn't work, copy the data\Editor folder to data_@#$\Editor.

Not that I am aware of.

I'll try that.

EDIT:
It didn't work.

I think I will munge and take a screenshot of the map, so you can see what's going on.

are these messed-up buttons only visible on the screenshot?
did you change your grahicsettings globaly with your driver ?(e.g. nvidia control center)
and does your firewall/antivirus maybe not let run ZE unlimited?

Nope. It's like that when I am looking at it.

It has never done it before.

wait, does this happen whenever you make a new map or just now for the first time?

Just now, for the first time. And only with this map.

I'd say one of the file's is corrupted or stuffing up. Off the top of my head, there should be a folder in your data_*** folder which has all the files ZE needs to run. Maybe try replacing that folder with one from a working map?

Sorry. Didn't pay very close attention to other peoples posts .

It's all right, I sometimes make the same mistakes.

Back to topic-->
Does anyone know what can be happening?

perhaps this is just an ol'fashioned glitch. Could you try making a new map and seeing if this problem repeats itself?

Maybe.

EDIT
No, it works, but I still can't load my map.

well, you could start from scratch...

I go through about 6 maps a week until I make one I like

That would take too long. I'd have to close up my WIP.

So this problem ONLY happens after you load your map, not when you start ZE?
