Yet another Map Making Issue -Game will not load for testing

Post by decker0311 »

OK, sorry guys but I've got YET ANOTHER problem with my tutorial/practice map. Everything is done, and I made it a plugin, activated it and tried to load in multiplayer to test it out, but the game will not load. It shows the loading screen and then goes right to the post-game screen, saying that I cancelled the game in progress.What am I missing here - I'm assuming I did something wrong in Fear - any suggestions?

Try it again and then close Myth2. Go to your Myth II folder and look for the myth_log text file. Open it and copy/paste it into a new post in this thread. It usually has clues in them as to what is missing or wrong.
