Not saving maps? [Archive] - ShowEQ Open Source Project Message Forums

Ok, last night I mapped almost the entire Plane of Justice.

Every so often I would click the pull down menu and click the Save Map button. Then randomly while running around I would hit F2 (function command to save the map) as I walked around.

Well regardless I ended up getting aggroed by some sphinx's while mapping their room and ended up have to take off. On the way ouc I clicked the save map button and right before zoneing I hit F2 a couple of times.

Well I zoned back in and NADA... @#!%@!# I was almost done.

Is this something with the Decode being being broken or am I just fubaring something up?

Actually I ran across something similar but just thought it was me. When the new ports on Luclin were released, I ported to each one and labeled where you port in, then saved the map. Next time in, it wasn't labeled.

I thought it was me (and probably still was) but I guess there is a possibility that it is related.

Did you check the Maps forum? I made a Plane of Justice map a while back it should still work fine.

Happened to me too. lost all of pod. So I thought about it and heres what I did. Just copy a map or use advanced text editor and make a file in the dir named for the zone. ex.. I made Podisease.map and put the labels on the first line like they are in the rest of the maps. Then it mapped and saved fine as I went. so pretty much acts like a template. I needed an innitial file to write to is my guess.

I'll get the maps up asap. Pauld, Twilight, scarlet, and a few others in the cvs rep are all ones I did and enjoy contributing this way. I plan to have at least 4-5 for to upload there for everyone.
