Glest map editor does not there are 8 player brushes but no visuals of them like color what so ever. I open a map with the new 8 player map editor place "invisible 6-8 player brushes" and place in the map without knowing where they are because I can't see it, next I click "save" but if I click save as the map editor will not respond and pops up with a loading bar saying, "looking for solutions". Anyways I click save and ran megaglest-3.2.4-2-beta4 and then created a new game with all those 8 player slots on top and change the map to the one I saved with the new glest map editor and I still can't add more player slots because the map max is still 4 after placing those invisible player brushes. WHY IS THAT? anyways I hope you fix this!!

. I am using windows 7, with no user account control with full admin rights to glest.

Aha!

A solution to maybe both your issues, Little Helper(it is weird saying that!)

Did you install the new team colors. That's the most likely reason why you can't see the players, and I could imagine it crashing the editor...

Now that you said that...Its like having new clear eyes for my blindness!

Little Helper · « **Reply #378 on:** 2 March 2010, 01:58:04 »

But still why does it say max 4 players?

Where does it say that?

In the new game menu screen on the bottom of the map name when your selecting the game's map. Still the map editor should of have colors for the new player brushes there is still no color brushes 5-8 or else it wont be there.

Permissions error, you have to change the permissions on your Glest directory so something without sudo powah, can access it.

For the problems mentioned here:
Little Helper: you have to start map_editor.exe not glest_editor.exe! I don't know why it has a different name....

ultifids screenshot problems( I assume you are talking about megaglest ingame shots ):
Does the directory screens exists? Do you have accessright in this directory ?

Titi: I already asked him something like "Do you have accessright in this directory ?"...

You need to change the permissions on your Glest directory so that anything can access it, do you know how to do that?

Never mind I don't have a "screens" folder, thanks.

I think I still have the problems with the factions in the "megapack"...Dark Magic CPU is fine...

-Archmage- · « **Reply #385 on:** 3 March 2010, 00:56:36 »

Ok...
I'm preparing a beta4 release with installers, please stand by...

Oh yes, I have a question...Where is the Windows build for the latest map editor?

titi · « **Reply #386 on:** 3 March 2010, 00:57:12 »

@ultifd:please give me more details!
Which OS are you using exactly?
Which megaglest version?
Do you use the precompiled binary?
How did you download the data?
Do you use a separate megaglest install or are the things mixed up with normal glest and GAE ?

@archmage: Use this GAE editor for windows its the most up to date and should work for megaglest too:

Which OS are you using exactly? Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit
Which megaglest version? megaglest 3.24-2-beta3 data/ beta 4 files....
Do you use the precompiled binary? what do you mean?

Bug Report:
It appears that you can't create a map with 8 players, I'm using the map editor, and I can see any icons when I place player 5-8, also, it seems they don't even get placed, because I save the map and try to use it but the game only lets me put in 4 players, which is strange.....

Titi, can you do 8 players on an eight player map in Windows, or only Linux....?

Also, how can I add stuff to svn, I see all these minor things in the XML that could be updated, and I'd like to just be able to sweep through and continuously fix all kinds of issues, but I don't know how to add to svn...

zombiepirate · « **Reply #391 on:** 3 March 2010, 05:20:29 »

Did you reset the players to 8? By default there are only 4 players until you reset to 8.

wciow · « **Reply #392 on:** 3 March 2010, 09:49:37 »

This DOES work. I tested it last night on Win 7 and had two good eight player games.

You need the new map editor and set players to 8. Then make a basic map with 8 start points.

Make sure you have downloaded the extra faction TGA's to data/core/textures or make your own like I did

titi · « **Reply #393 on:** 3 March 2010, 10:34:10 »

Thank you very very much for your post wciow! I already thought that there is something completly wrong

Lets hope a full installation made by archmage will solve most of the problems!
By the way,
I'm getting a new internet connection this weekend. If everything works fine I'm hopefully able to upload bigger things like fullinstallations in the future without stressing my neighbour and his WoW
( although I fear it would still take 5 hours to upload a full installation )

-Archmage- · « **Reply #394 on:** 3 March 2010, 13:30:33 »

THat's what I'm for with my fast internet connection, I get the stuff from svn and make installers with the latest binaries.
There will be some Windows and Linux MegaGlest-BETA4 installers soon.

titi · « **Reply #396 on:** 3 March 2010, 16:17:25 »
