Squashman thanks much for trying to help, greatly appreciated!, I see you're releasing the rest of the maps so don't go crazy on this as I guess it's something I'm doing wrong as there seem to be no other reports of it from people using BAT3.8.3. Just for info, I have been trying to install them on a highly modded BAT3.8.3 & no-go, last night I tried to install them on another install, a totally stock BAT3.8.3 and got the same results, map displays fine but won't save. I tried again w/the new map u posted and got the same, no go. The items that would not load are:
Runway_Vunakanau
Runway_Lakunai
Runway_Rapopo
Runway_Gasmata
Runway_Generic_Grass
House$WoodenWall1 (there are 2 entries of this in the download?)
the rest of the objects in the group are not showing any errors and the problem entries all show "unable to open mono.sim.
If you have no other reports of this in BAT don't use your time trying to figure it out,I can be patient as I'm sure these maps will be included in BAT at some point, if others have reported it maybe the info will help. Thanks Again for the great work!
