Bad evil thing to do stopping a localize save, almost as bad as stopping a munge. The localize will look like it is not doing anything for a while but it is. Just give it a chance to finish (lesson learned the hard way)

huh?
Every time I tell it to save, the program freezes.
I made a new map but it still has the same errors, and I moved my wld and lua script to the new world, cleaned and munged it, but it got over written....
I think I know what you mean about the localize save.

It will get to a point where it looks like it has frozen, it hasn't it is still doing stuff.
Depending how many changes have been made it could take a while 10, 15 maybe even
20 minutes. (also depends upon speed of computer) Just let it run if after two hours and it is still going then it probably has froze then you should
go back into the localize program and start looking for errors.

That depends upon how much work you put into your map so far and how much of a pain it would be to redo it.
Personally I would do a save on the localize and let it run it course until it is done. Then im visual munge do a clean with the localize button checked. Then munge once again with the localize button checked. If that didn't work I would copy an untouched localize file from another map (I always have lots of maps on the go) and put them into you maps localize directory, clean and remunge but that's just me and I am a stubborn cuss who will never let any computer program get the best of him. :D If that seems like to much to do then yes make a new map but other than the sides, objects and possibly the luas don't copy anything from the original.

Yeah, just for future reference, you'll see lots of the tools in the mod tools look like they freeze up, but they don't. They're still working. Best thing to do is leave it alone until it's done.
