VisualMunge not Munging

Post by trainmaster611 »

I recently reinstalled SWBF2 (from the CD) and downloaded the v1.1 patch and copied my BF2_Modtools folder from the harddrive my data was backed up on. Now when I go munge a map, it only copies over the already munged lvl files in data_ABC. When I do a manual clean, VM seems to ignore the missing lvl files and doesn't bother munging new ones. On my old computer, this map munged just fine after a manual clean.

I'm using Windows 7 by the way. I looked at this topic from the FAQ. The symptoms didn't seem to correlate with mine; in any event, the download was corrupted so I couldn't try it.

I'm a bit rusty on my modding skills so I may not have thought of everything.

Here's the munge output:

I have to run my munge as admin because I have it installed on another drive, I have the same problem if I don't. Have you tried that?

Maybe reinstalling modtools would work aswell

just as a wacko thing to do, have a look though the folders in modtools and see if it is trying to associate any of them with Quicktime. If there are goto the folder options file types thing in windows explorer and remove the association.

@Frag - Didn't see anything associated with Apple's Quicktime

@TK432 - My account is already the administrator so I don't think that's the problem. I deleted my BF2_Modtools folder and installed a fresh version from the installer. I munged a new data_ABC folder and then munged the map. I had the same result - nothing munged and just a folder framework in the Addon folder.

Yeah, that was the topic. What did you do about it?
