I have a map finished, but requiring about one? hour's work to finish it, just small easy-to-fix errors like a keyframe in wrong place etc...couple of weps missing.For two weeks I and some other mappers can not run ANY version of the editor.I get 3 different messages on start-up. One is about editor.dll, one is about Class>Player>Pawn>1498 etc...another is about History...My map is very different from my previous maps and thanks to DXMS input and advice, it is IMO much better than anything I have previously done.
I wonder if either
1. Someone could remote access my PC and install the editor properly, I think I am doing something really dumb...I changed to Firefox and it wont let me just click on the exe, It's asking me to use "actions" and then it builds a directory in the programs directory, toolbar thingy "Start"...
OR
2. Take my map, fix the keyframe, add 3 weps and replace 3 doors which dont work properly, with copies of the other spwnroom's doors. And add any little touch they feel is necessary, take the credit as a joint-project. I think it's style is very different from DXMS maps, it is a fighting map, but style is perhaps not DXMS. Also I have modded some items, so it is almost kind of a mod and map at the same time. But I dont care who gets the credit, I just want to see if my new ideas work on the FGS server, or any server...
It is a small map 1.2mb, and only about 4 main rooms. I'm dying to see it hosted...
It is unbelievably frustating not being able to open the editor. I have tried edgefiles version and fileplanet versions and "final" version and "latest" versions...I have tried installing directly in DX folders, on desktop, I have tried completely removing DX and re-installing and same with MTL... The other mapper too has tried all 3 versions of the SDK with no luck...I even suspect some kind of sabotage...Also when I join maps like DXMS_Breakout I can't...I have a "Version mismatch - Package :Editor"....

I already have plans to remove the NPC's. But mostly I'm just adding a couple of rooms to the map, and redoing a few textures...... I don't want to do to much to it because it wouldn't be truly ShadowRunner's map... I want to mostly show his mapping skills, and me.... I'm just trying to put myself into the background on this map lol...
