[COMMANDO 359]

I'd like to promote my first map (Just a note it's not my first time using a Farcry map editor though, nothing broken or unprofessional) for you guys to have a looksy at.

It's called "HEART OF DARKNESS" By COMMANDO 359

it's a medium to small map for 8 to 12 players, featuring a crashed plane in the middle of a Japanese fortified Island. there are scenic mountains, waterfalls and a Japanese bunker going into one of the mountains with multiple entrances. The only problems I'm having is testing the zip-lines (they seem to work in the editor, but I know then can be a bit choosy due to having to use telephone poles) and setting up the map boundaries, as they don't seem to be working for me...

but all of the spawns are set up (I will probably tweak them in the future) and it is working on all game types, so feel free to give it a try and I shall do the same on everyone elses!

FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I changed the probs, added some new cool stuff..........unpublished an deleted the old map......guess what...It deleted the edited map too!
I think this is the nail in the coffin for this game for me, cant understand how i can delete a map off the server, thats not even published yet?? I have no doubt its my fault...but frikkin hell lol
The amount of hours ****in wasted..sniff sniff

Holy sh1t!

You should unpublish and remove uploaded copy, but not delete. I'm surprised there is an option to delete it there though!

I have a suggestion but it's on the virge of hacking and depends on if Budreux still has a copy of your map. (do you Budreux?)


Both:
Get a copy of Modio! Each! It''s on Gametuts.com or .net or something.
Stick in a memory stick to your xbox and configure it as a storage device through Settings->Storage.

Budreux:
Under storage, go to your HDD and find the FC3 Saves. You should have one named as the map. Copy that to the memory stick.
Now put the memory stick into your PC and load Modio. Choose open from device and navigate to the savegame and extract it to your HDD
Then email this file to Ol Barakus

Ol Barakus:
Make a new map, just blank or whatever and save it. Then follow the steps above to copy it to your memory stick.
Put the memory stick in your PC and open Modio.
Open the savegame for the new map from your MC and copy the console ID and gamertag ID from the screen to notepad or whatever.
Open the save file Budreux emailed you. Paste the ID codes over the ones in the save.
Click Rehash & Resign and save to device.
Put the memory stick back in your xbox and copy the map back to your HDD.

You might then be a winner!

Might be an idea to look up more detailed info on using Modio on the Google if you have trouble. My instructions are a bit brief.

I hope you get your map back.

No, no glitches, turns out I'd just been hit by the brick of stupidity briefly when settin' up the boundaries (forgot it was a square on the edge of the map, tried adding them anywhere...) but all fixed now, and some other minor bugs worked out as well

Hi everyone, ive made a new map if anyone would like to help check thru it for probs! Ive spent a good alot of hours on this one, but am abit concerned how it would play out in the different modes.

I havent been able to get enough games in on the MP to see or learn about ranges of weapons..especially the snipers, so the map may have issues with ranges as it is quite open.
Ive spent alot of time testing it in private, an sorted out many issues...but could really do with someone else to give some feedback on it, or some good ideas on how to improve it...my brains got cramps from just lookin at it for so long lol!

Map: MOFOGO II

Any help would be much appreciated, as when i got through 3/4 of this map, i was already thinkin maybe id taken on more than i could chew. Thanks

P.S. When i become a little better with the editor, an played more of MP, i'll help review some maps if its ok with you guys?

Edit: Could someone tell me how to see how many downloads/plays your map has recieved? Ive seemed to have checked everywhere..but with no luck..
