    Hey Bauer. After a few weeks, doing around 8-16 hours a day on my cornish map, its kinda done (bar a few minor things here and there, mainly finalising decoration and a bit of terrain smoothing). However, ive hit a massive brick wall.

    I was starting the game with console open and i had 1 or 2 errors related to xml files for a placeable which i thought was easily rectified and so i ignored that and ran the map through the test runner as i made the map for my 9 year old nephew who plays on console. Anyways, had quite a few expected errors in test runner so i spent a few hours resolving them. Got them all cleared and only had 4 shader problems that was purely console related. I then tried starting the map again and had a console FULL of errors and when i got in game, none of my placeables were working, no textures, no custom pastures – pretty much destroyed the map. I then had to revert to a previous backup as I couldnt get anything working at all.

    I am now at a total loss and have spent 3 days now trying to figure out what ive done wrong or whats happening to little avail. The map version i currently have works when loading into game with 3 minor warnings but i dont want to go near test runner again but need to get it onto modhub. I appreciate you are very busy with real life and content creation, however I am on my knees asking if you would take a look at my files and try and get this map over the line. Its my first ever map and after the last couple of days i think it could be my last, but i would love to be able to tell my nephew he can at least download it! If you are willing to take a look, i can dropbox the map or whatever you prefer. I would be forever grateful if you could help!

    Cheers either way for all your content videos and you responses thus far to my forum posts – its appreciated!

    Sorry for the late response, I just got back from vacation. Sure, I can have a look for you when I get a moment. Starting this week I will be in the midst of a move so things will really be up in the air for a while until I get everything transferred to the new house. The thing with testrunner is that is does not physically change anything, it just lets you know where the problems are so you can fix them yourself. I’m thinking that whatever you fixed is what caused the issues. Running it through testrunner a second time should let you know what is wrong, or having a close look at the error log. Some of the errors in testrunner can be decieving and not all items absolutely need to be fixed. Sometimes it tells you files are obsolete when they are not, etc. Things like that. Shoot me the info of where I can download the map and I’ll look at it as soon as I can. You can email me the info at agentbbrown1@gmail.com.
