Hello everyone

I know I'm about to ask a very dumb question, but I have been looking around for the answer on tutorials and pages around here and I don't seem to find it

I need help compiling my new custom map

I edited it with sapien and saved the scenario tag as "sword wars.scenario", the file is located in "levels\test\sword wars\sword wars" inside its own folder also named "sword wars"

But when I open cmd.exe and type "tool.exe build-cache-file levels\test\sword wars\sword wars"

I get:

------------------------------------------------

Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'

usage: tool.exe ver <options..>

build-cache-file <scenario-name>

------------------------------------------------

I don't know whats wrong, I'm pretty sure I typed the path correctly

I even tried changing "sword wars.scenario" to "levels\test\carousel\sword wars" but I get the same thing.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks!

I believe you need to type sword wars as "sword wars" in quotes. If that does not work, add a _ to replace the space.

you cannot have a space in your maps name you need to change name to sword_wars.sword-wars will also work, there are ways however to putting a space in map name.

False. You can do a space in your map name. You need to type it like this:

tool.exe build-cache-file "levels\test\sword wars\sword wars"
