I would like to be added to the tracker: catwalkutopia - gmail

[Azza]

I don't think we have a tracker at this stage. Actually, unless Serdoa knows, we probably don't have anyone who knows how to set one up.

I think novice has the FTP access to Mist's server to set up a tracker, if someone wants to poke him.

Okay, I believe that the save is ready and have sent it off to HumanHydra. Let me know if there are any issues, but I went back and double checked all the settings so hopefully there shouldn't be any.

[TheHumanHydra]

I can't get the save to open. When I try to do so, BtS quits unexpectedly. Prior to this, a warning appears which says "Can't find map script: Generating empty map ..."

I'm going to bed soon; I won't be able to implement any solution until morning.

Do you need to install seven's map script?

Maybe ... I kinda thought if the map was already made, the computer would just be able to load it in, without needing to know how to make new random maps of that type. Anyway, when I press "download here" at that link, I get a page full of code, rather than a download. What do I do now? (Btw, I know almost nothing about computers beyond "point and click," so please forgive any incompetence I am displaying).

[Serdoa]

You need to left-click the link. That will link you to the thread Seven wrote about his map-script. You can then find the download-link in the first post of that thread.

[TheHumanHydra]

Sorry, I meant when I click on the download link in Seven's post.

[Old Harry]

If you right-click the link, choose "save link location" (or something similar) and save it in your /Beyond the sword/publicmaps/ folder (on my machine that's in /my documents/my games/ but if that doesn't work try looking for other publicmaps folders on your machine) then restart Beyond The Sword does it work?

I would assume you don't need it either, but it's worth trying...
