Sorry MGB, anyway, the topic at hand?

Upload the map you are having problems with, others can try and see if it is the LVL file or your setup.

The pink is the tile 242

I think the "thor blocker." Also warps ships.

P.S. I use .png and MSPaint.

Well it is not my lvl. I am just trying to host it. It is like 3MB.

I will try that.

Oh, BTW, it wouldn't let me put the file up.

LVL files zip up pretty good. Give that a shot. Tell whomever made the map to edit it. Any map over 200k has something seriously wrong with it.

a map that big won't work... it's 4 byte per tile... 1024 x 1024 x 4 = 4MB + the tileset, which is probably 140k if it is 24bit...

well, he re-did the map but whenever I start subgame I get this error...

The size is 110 KB (113,007 bytes)

I used the regular _bzw.lvl and it worked fine. It just seems to be the map.

Also, here is the map.

Samapico · Posted: Sat Mar 31, 2007 1:35 pm Post subject:

hmm... he might have used an old version of DCME to make that map...
Try opening it with DCME (3.1.3), and saving it back (you can retile top-left of the base if some anti-thor tiles are missing, which will probably happen)
Then save it back

And tell him to use Check for Updates...
see, it had corrupt elvl data
Copy of mini8.lvl @ eLVL.GetELVLData, eLVL header info:
--- magic: 1Ã²V
--- size: 1475482929
--- reserved: 1492260145
That's a bug that happened in earlier DCME versions...

Hey, that surprisingly worked. I didn't think it was going to be fixed. Thanks.

How does that have to do with subgame not working though?

Samapico · Posted: Sat Mar 31, 2007 4:01 pm Post subject:

subgame probably crashed when reading the level file... or does it even read it at all? That bug could screw up tileset data... Dunno if subgame even attempts to read any of that though...
