Ok so i make the map go into zero editor load the world i set it for path and regions so i can see the regions and the spawn nodes so i know where the spawns are, then i set down 4 objects *buildings* (to make sure there are no errors) then i save it, munge it(munge takes more than 3 seconds), open swbf2 go to the map and load it. The map doesnt crash its just a flat map accept the objects are not there. I made sure i was in the base layer so they would be there on all game modes but why wont they appear?

Are you sure your world's .lvl file is being copied to your map's folder in the addon directory?

If you dont edit the sound, then dont check off sound when you munge :wink: you will avoid all of these problems. your map may also be stored in another location. Mine are in a different folder, C:\Users\steve (<----this varies of course)\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\addon. Also, about your objects not appearing, did u create an odf and msh file for your map? cause i had the same problem about 3 months ago when i first started modding.

Go into data_***(***is 3 letter map id)/Worlds/*** and make 2 folders: msh and odf. put your odfs in the odf folder and msh and tga files in the msh folder. :wink:

Think of the msh files almost as a counterpiece to the odf file, and make sure u put the tga files (texture files) and the option files of the object u want in the msh folder as well. Also u don't necessarily use a msh file, u just need it for the odf file to work

okay now where do i find the msh files to add? and the texture files? and after i add the msh files the objects should appear after i munge it right?

Sell u find msh and texture and option files in the msh folder of any other map. And if you did everything right then yes, the objects should appear on the map
