IxianMace Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 What operating system are you using? Do you have any other programs running in the background when you're running the map editor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IxianMace Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hmm, have you tried re-installing the Map Editor? When the program locks up, how much disk activity is your computer getting? I've never had this problem, I can only suggest re-installing or waiting to see if the program finishes whatever its doing, but besides that I'm lost as to what the problem could be. :-If all else fails, use the workaround with the tutorials. Open a tutorial, then delete everything in the map so that you have a fresh base to start off with. The major disadvantage here is that you'll be stuck with the Arrakis template, and won't be able to resize your map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurlyPIG Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 I'd try posting this in the editing section. Most of us techies in here are unfamiliar with the Emp map editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
