Map Bug report... (457)

Post by none »

On Gilestiel's, map 457 (Kharkov) lists a mismatched .mapx and .map ("pntllria" = map #456 "Pantelleria"!), and the fitting "map457.txt" has all location names shifted upwards by several hexes. :shock

Something very bad has happened there...

I fixed to point only to kharkov4 .mapx and .map (needed to use shp files). But when downloading from MapFinder both mapx/map fiels show up duplicated :huh and I don't know why nor how to fix that.

I've not fixed the map457.txt though, as either the mapx and the scenarios created using this map don't need the text file.
Anyway, if you want the .txt also fixed, please tell me how many lines should be added/removed from the beginning.

No, thanks, it's not needed if there is a working .mapx. :yes

:howdy
No one used the names for map 457 because nothing there matches... and it's been like this for a long time (maybe from the beginning?)
I checked the old saves on the CD --> in March 2007 it was just as bad...
Mapx doesn't correct the names either - they're just as corrupted.

There are 5 maps named Kharkov (83, 134, 237, 457, 1241) --> I checked, and from other map texts --> they don't match either.
