MQ2Map

Post by Riddlerr » Wed Oct 20, 2004 1:19 am

I know that there is an issuse with the map plugin, but i seem to be having other issues with it. didnt post in the crash topic that was up cause it doesnt crash, my problem is that .. when i do /mapshow XXX ( anything) it said #3 previous hidden spawns shown but there not on the map what so ever, i never had a problem with the CTD because i never used map to target. i just used it to see where other PC , named, etc where. and that is it. but now i cant even see anything, would going back to a previous release of mq2map.cpp fix this. ( i know it will have the ctd bug but as i stated i never had that problem) ? if so can anyone be nice enough to post the code here? i just happend to reinstall windows and lost the release that when the mq2map plugin was fine for me . any ideas about this? i know that there is a CTD problem with the map but thats not the issue here.. thanks in advance

i've never had this problem. Try recompiling a clean build and see if you get the same problem. None of the people i've compiled for have had this problem either.

If you have previously used /mapfilter, it writes stuff in the map ini file taht seems to keep /mapshow from working. I"m not sure how it is supposed to work, but amadeus posted the map plugin was partially broken on purpose to diagnose that CTD bug.

Try unloading the map plug, delete the map ini file, then reload the plugin.
