Can only use Katyusha mission 1 map in editor!

[ZeroG_181]

I downloaded and installed the GEM editor to the SHOWW2 folder and it works fine, apart from the fact that there is only one map available, that one being the first mission of the russian campaign. I click 'Menu' and go to 'Load' and there's only a map called '0' there, and '0' is the map I already mentioned. I tried downloading the blank maps pack and extracted it to the resource folder, but still nothing. The editor automatically starts in the 1st russian map.

press f2 and then load because you are on the mission editor not map editor ;) pressing f2 activates map editor and pressing f3 activates mission editor. :)

Right !

F2 to edit Landscapes and map.
F3 to edit missions.

There is two files to edit.

I'm just learning editor myself but discovered that if you click on top right corner where it says Katyusha, a box appears where you can select load and you can load from a list of maps.
Hope this helps you i'm sure i'll need help at some stage.

You can edit the start_editor.bat file too.

Make a copy of this file.
Name the new file as you want.
Select it and with the right mouse button select edit.
now change this code line:


soldiers_editor.exe -edit 1-katusha\1_2-chepel:0

1-katusha Subfolder contained in the map folder (i.e. campaign folders, mp maps and bonus sp maps)
1_2-chepel The folder of your map-mission
0 The name of your mission file (*.mi)

0 The name of your mission file (*.mi)
but you can leave the mission spot empty :toast: so it only loads map

example: 1-katyusha\1_2chepel
