VTX Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Hi! I use MTA 1.3 for 2 months, and I only played in DM servers. I really like it, and I want to try myself in mapping. But there's the problem. When I click on the 'Map Editor' button I get some messages: 'Starting local server...' then 'Entering the game...' and after this it goes wrong, and nothing moves. I must restart my PC. I'm new in MTA so maybe I did something wrong. Please help me! Thanks. VTX

VTX Posted June 21, 2012 Author Posted June 21, 2012 I deleted the 'editor_dump' folder, then I opened MTA, clicked Map Editor, and it created a new 'editor_dump' folder. When I click on the Host Game button, it's the same.
Moderators IIYAMA Posted June 21, 2012 Moderators Posted June 21, 2012 "Host Game button" I prever to launch it from server folder. No debug errors in server window?

VTX Posted June 22, 2012 Author Posted June 22, 2012 I fixed registry.db, but nothing changed. After I started the editor: 'Starting local server...' then 'Entering the game...', and than everything was frozen.
Moderators IIYAMA Posted June 22, 2012 Moderators Posted June 22, 2012 Console = black server window Write in console "start play" If this works. Write in console "stop play" > "start editor" and now is the moment to check if the problem is with the server or with the client < your mta/gta.

VTX Posted June 22, 2012 Author Posted June 22, 2012 I can't write anything in the console. It's disabled. By the way 'editor_dump' folder recreates itself, every time I click on 'map editor' or 'host game'.
Moderators IIYAMA Posted June 22, 2012 Moderators Posted June 22, 2012 Why is writing in your console disabled? O_o By the way 'editor_dump' folder recreates itself, every time I click on 'map editor' or 'host game'. Yes, it will recreat itself because it is a required file. Without it the editor doesn't work. I recommend you to make a back up from your resource folder if you have important works in it. There are lots of things not correct and maybe it is handy to re-install your mta. When you download it, you must also sellect server. A clean start may help. Do you want to improve your Lua programming skills and make less mistakes? Start with Lua Language Server!

VTX Posted June 22, 2012 Author Posted June 22, 2012 This is a brand new MTA, I installed it 2 days ago, I didn't do any maps, or something, I just went 2 servers. That's all. And I can't do mapping. What if I download an older MTA? Is there any useful innovation in the 1.3 version, or not so important?
Moderators IIYAMA Posted June 22, 2012 Moderators Posted June 22, 2012 Possible. One version for gaming(1.3) and one version for mapping (1.2) Do you want to improve your Lua programming skills and make less mistakes? Start with Lua Language Server!

MTA Team jhxp Posted June 22, 2012 MTA Team Posted June 22, 2012 There is no reason why MTA:SA 1.3's editor should not work for you, so the problem is on your end. You might want to try to install a new MTASA 1.3 copy into a path which does not contain any non-ASCII characters in its name (eg. G:\MTASA\1.3\). Then, make sure that the folder you have installed it to does not have a 'read-only' attribute set (right click on that folder, go to properties and uncheck the read-only option). Use the installer from this page: http://www.multitheftauto.com/ (click the Download button). Once you do these steps, launch the newly installed MTASA (go to your G:\MTASA\1.3\ folder and launch multi theft auto.exe) and see if your problem still occurs.
