Weapon Objects change to trash bins

[Nature]

When I create weapons in the map editor, after awhile, they change into trash bin objects. I've tried reinstalling numerous times and updating to the latest patches, but nothing works. Does anyone know a way around this?

Weapons as in pickups?

[Nature]

No not pickups, but the weapon objects. Say I want to place a shotgun(id 349) on my bedroom wall as decoration, it will change into id 1337.

[Arran]

Save the map then check inside the .map file, check if they're being saved as 1337.

[Nature]

Yes they are.

Click on one of the items when in Map Editor, what does their model/object ID show as?

[Nature]

When I place it(before it turns into a trash bin) it shows its normal model number, and no name for the id, just "object (1)"... and when it turns into the trash bin the model changes to 1337 and the id name stays the same. "object (1)". None of the weapon objects have an id name when I place them. I've tried filling in the id for myself but that doesn't help.

[Arran]

Can you tell me the model ID and or name of these objects so I can test it?

Also, try getting a new and clean version of Map Editor from:

http://code.google.com/p/mtasa-resources/downloads/list

Extract the one relevant to your version (probably 1.0.X) and replace the resources.

The shotgun is model 349, but it happens with any of the weapons I try to use.

I already tried installing that, I've tried everything I can think of. I've searched all day for an answer but nothing comes up.

I'm getting the same problem, I think that maybe they aren't objects and or not meant to be in the map editor. HS RPG worked though.

Okay thank you for your help.
