Anyone know what the problem could be?

look at your mapinfo file,

you currently have

[starter starterTown] SAFE

it should be

[starter starterTown 0] SAFE

The 0 tells it which server to load the maps from. Obviously for private servers it's always 0.

 

[ashleyuk]

Check again mate.

The "StarterCave" has no error and it's set out as.

[StarterCave StarterCave] SAFE

The startercave is exactly the same as "Startertown" more or less.

-Ash

 

[Tyraes]

Far is right. Have you tried it using these?

[Starter StarterTown 0] SAFE
[StarterCave StarterCave 0] SAFE

Could also be a case of you not actually saving the mapinfo.txt file and then properly rebooting which means the M2Server won't be reading the new updated mapinfo.txt

 

[ashleyuk]

Thanks for the advice but i know how to save a text file

I've added the 0 to the starter one. The rest already had the 0.

Still same error.. I closed the text file while saving it then closed all gates and the GameCenter.

Reopened the GameCenter to open all gates once again and same error.

Also if you take a better look there is one with the "0" and it still gets the error.

[Q10011 Carcasscave1st 0] - Yet it shows the error. I've also checked through "C:\mirserver\Mir200\Map" to check if they are there and they are.

Any more suggestions? Hopefully not the common ones (Which i am aware of)

[Far]

where are you pointing the map dir to? make sure you only point it to mir200 and not mir200\map

 

[ashleyuk]

Guess i can't use 2.6 with hero files.

-Ash

 

[TheMasterGee]

Replace the Starter.map file with a map you know works. (rename, blah blah)

If it still comes up as one of the 22+ errors, it's the mapinfo. If it doesn't show, it's the Starter.map file.

 

[PRIMO]

are the .map files in the correct folders? example mir 3 maps in EImap and mir 2 maps in map?

 

[Tyraes]

If what I told you didn't work then the map formats are probably wrong. Try re-save the map which will create a new format that will work with heroes. If this doesn't work then I honestly don't know what is wrong.

 

[ashleyuk]

Yer a mate of mine said the format wouldn't work with heroes. So i just simply took them out. (I have a backup incase)

Now theirs no error's. I'm hoping the maps i took out wont make much of an effect.

Thanks for the suggestions!

If you send me the maps I can see if I can get them to work for you.

Thanks for the offer but i found a solution.. To bad it means changing the map name.. Had to change stuff in mongen so monsters spawn there.. Then the teleport npc.. Then copy/paste it into client etc..

The way i fixed it was..

I opened it with "Map Edit (Shorty)"
Then i saved it with a different name.
Copy/Pasted into file/client and DONE. - Just needed to add the map name in other areas but eventually got there.

-Ash

EDIT: Never mind.. Went ingame and checked it out and the map is totally black.. If you know a solution i'll be happly to upload the maps. (I'll private message you them).
