So I was trying to make a PAC map and i imported all the stuff i needed but it just loaded a random completely useless map (to me), so i tried to import one of the "campaign" maps and it loaded the same map, in both scenarios i used completely different folders,

This is an example of when i tried to import "Arca" to my projects (if it the image didn't work, i attached it as a .jpg, i think):


So my question is, What is happening to my game for it to do this?

That useless map is a clear sign that the game couldn't find the map file. It must be named save.cw3 or the game won't be able to find it. The file path should be (with [mapname] replaced by the name of the map, which can be anything you'd like):

...\Documents\creeperworld3\WorldEditor\[mapname]\save.cw3

Killer007lite

So instead of it being called (following on from example) Arca.cw3 and Arca-auto.cw3 it should be called save.cw3 and save-auto.cw3

J

Yes.

(don't manually put a save-auto.cw3 there, the game will load save.cw3 and automatically generate save-auto.cw3 when you exit the editor)

Ok cool its working now, Thank a lot J, appreciate it.
