I downloaded the game again and the file is still missing. Guess I'll ask for another player to email it to me. Thx anyway for the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aislinn Report post Posted April 13, 2007 Try this (i think this is what Acelon was trying to guide you to): http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9084 I don't have a mapeditor.html either, I only have a little mapeditor text file that says only this in my folder: Only directives that start with a # are taken in consideration Anything else is treated as a comment For the directives that accept a boolean value (on/off), 0 is off, 1 is on video modes: 1 = 640x480 2 = 800x600 3 = 1024x768 4 = 1152x864 5 = 1280x1024 #video_mode = 2 Setting this to a non-zero value will throttle the map editor back only when it's grabbing far more CPU time than it really needs to render a scene smoothly. This shouldn't affect slower systems at all, as they need all the CPU time that they can get to render nicely. #limit_fps=60 This option is currently only available on linux, and allows you to specify a directory other than the current directory to load data from. #data_dir = /usr/share/games/eternal-lands/ The following setting decides whether the browser window should be closed once you selected an object from it. #close_browser_on_select = 1 This setting provides you with a small X on the map where you're currently located when in minimap-mode. #show_position_on_minimap = 1 This setting decides if you should show the grid as default or not. #show_grid = 0 The following setting decides the time interval in minutes between when the map editor saves the map automatically to maps/Autosave.elm. If 0, it will not save the map automatically. #auto_save = 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyrannis Report post Posted April 14, 2007 Thank you. None of the players I contacted had the file; I played around with it trying all kinds of shortcuts, and since its so friendly use I feel comfortable using it now. But if anyone out there does have the manual I'd appreciate if you could share, just to make sure I'm not missing anything important. Btw: I did read that tutorial before I posted here, and It was of Great help. Thanks All. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roja Report post Posted April 14, 2007 Ok you can also find it here..no idea how it could have gotten out of the EL directory(don't download it all again, that won't help). http://www.eternal-lands.com/mapmakers/mapeditor.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
