Well I made it past the Python step, the problem was my UAC was enabled, I disabled it and now the modules system works. Hopefully I can get this going now!

Already having problems with the Module System and Python. I did everything listed, went into environmental variables, changed what needed to be changed and the Module system isn't working, FD*#%@&*%@#EWHEFGU%@#*%#@&%^@NFE*%@*&%@&!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Zag, I wonder if there is a way to change that in my system files? I'm running Win 7 64bit.

Leiknir,
I followed Kong Ming's steps to the tee. What would a proper Module system be? Like a different way to edit maps then inside the Warband editor?

Would the .sco file be the name of my map ie. "Awesome Forest" or would it be under a default name. I'm just surprised how big of a problem this is, yet not many others have had it. All I want to do is make a cool map and actually be able to play it again without total fear of loosing it. Right now I've made multiple new terrains and "Nothing" has been saving. Sigh...
Just for the record, my original Terrains are saved, but nothing else is.

Scene Editing / Re: Kong Ming's Short Guide to Making Your Own Maps. (No Module System Required)

Kong Ming,
My goodness man, your guide is basically flawless. I didn't expect it to be so easy, although I have 1 problem...My map I spent 7 hours on didn't save. I changed the name of it in scenes and scripts before starting to an awesome custom name, used the "ctrl-e" feature to go in and out of edit mode saving multiple times. I definitely got the hang of it and thanks to you making Warband maps from now on will be easy, BUT I need to figure out how to save my maps, especially if I'm going to spend all day on one.
So, please help me on this map not saving issue, other then that, thanks a ton for this guide!
Best,
Ripper X

Scene Editing / Maps not Saving?
« on: March 21, 2011, 09:26:23 am »
Hi Guys,
I'm a bit pissed, first day with everything, the system works great thanks to Kong Ming's great guide, I figured out how to build terrain and learn the basics of the map and system, objects etc. I tried about 4-5 maps for a few hours before I finally started my first "official" map. So long story short, I have been working on it for about 7 hours now, added tons of stuff, from what it says in the editor, if you press "ctrl-e" to exit out of the mode, it will ask you to save.
I saved my map about 50-60 times over the past 7 hours, so for the first time I "quit the game" to take a break, I go back, my map is gone, completely reset, nothing but terrain. I don't even want to attempt another map if this is going to happen, such a gut wrenching feeling loosing 7 hours of work. Anyways, maybe I'm doing something wrong, if anyone knows how to retrieve the map, or has any more details on saving your final work that would be great. Thanks.
**NOTE** Just to clarify, I took all the steps listed in the tutorial, got my Terrain checked, copy and pasted the code into Scenes.txt, then in Strings.txt I customized the name of the map as well instead of "My_Scene_1 etc. I loaded Warband with my custom Module, loaded a multiplayer game, hosted the game and loaded in the new Terrain, everything looks and feels great. So I did this again, added 5 trees, then ***Saved CTRL-E and Exited** I load the same map back up which is the map I'm currently testing with basic terrain and 5 trees, THE TREES WERE GONE. What am I doing wrong, why won't the bloody map save my actions? AM I not compiling something here? I read 2 different tutorials, and even read the help in the editor multiple times, all it says is "pressing ctrl-e" will allow you to save, but it doesn't and I start off with a blank terrain again.
So my main question, how do you officially compile a scene? and then get the .sco file? For example my map was called "Awesome_Forest" its saved in my scenes.txt and strings.txt as "Awesome_Forest" and when I load it in a multiplayer game it comes up as "Awesome_Forest" yet the second I quit Warband and restart, everything is gone and it's back to my original Terrain. Just really frusterated, haven't heard anyone else having this problem, hoping it's just a basic thing, sigh...
Please help, thanks.
