Title: Changed PC and now my maps are broken
Post by: Rich on November 29, 2023, 09:37:06 pm

Hello, as title says, i had to change computer and now my mapview is empty.
Is there a way to load in correct terrains in the exact order they were before? I really don't want to redo my maps again.

u need the MapTilesets.yml file from the /settings folder of your old Mapview2 installation

Also make sure that your paths are correctly defined under \MapView2\settings\MapResources.yml.

I don't have my old pc available anymore sadly. Is there no other way to check that?  :-\

if you have custom maps its gonna be hard without the old config file

I can say that if you had the maps/terrains set up in OXC/e then that has its own config files (which list terrain-order) -- Solarius et al knows more about this than i do.*

or if all u want is the stock maps configured, Mapview2 can generate a new MapTilesets.yml (but that won't recreate any custom stuff)


* oh, if you have the maps set up in a Terrains.rul file, I think Mv2 can pull that data out to create yaml for MapTilesets ... see RulesetConverter.txt and .exe
