In VisualMunge, next to the "Munge" button is the "Clean" button. Click it. There is also a Manual Clean tutorial stickied at the top of this (Modding) forum.

No, if munge again (along with your sides) then everything will be just fine.

start battlefront through the mod_tools.exe and post your error log.

My map shows up as ABC%s%s but when I try to play it, it won't launch. (I have played it before)

The errors came when i changed the description and name of the map in editlocalize.bat like the instruction in the faq thread said.

Edit: manual munge didn't work either i still get:

ERROR[localizemunge English.cfg]:Text file syntax error. (No matching bracket)ERROR[localizemunge English.cfg]:Text file syntax error. (No matching bracket) [continuing]
ERROR[localizemunge French.cfg]:Text file syntax error. (No matching bracket)ERROR[localizemunge French.cfg]:Text file syntax error. (No matching bracket) [continuing]
4 Errors 0 Warnings

Edit/solution-It worked. I fixed it.


EDIT
Srry for double post but if it helps, when i click editlocalize.bat now, it doesn't show mapname along with some others.

I just got a great idea. I'm going to make a new map (ABC, give it the description I and name then take that editlocalize.bat and switch with the defective one and munge) all after cleaning and temporarly moving the original of course.

Double posting is against the RULES please use the Edit button - Staff

Your editlocalize isn't "corrupt" its just missing some information.
