The map editor has not been updated in years.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Which maps? It is possible they were made using a mod with custom SectType.txt information. In such a case, the stock game data files would not allow you to load the map in the Map Editor.

Those maps that don't work probably were created using a mod that altered the sector types, or something similar.

Try loading it with your path.txt set to the related mod if you can figure out which it is.

The map editor is more trouble than it is fun. I suggest you make a new map with the game, save it, and then open THAT map in the map editor. Save often and frequently.

Here is an idea for a extra money spinner for MM - create a up to date map editor for SE4 and then SE% (along with a sceniro editor - tech editor and also a mod file editor) and charge $4 bucks a download (direct link via email to download file from a secure internet server) im sure folks would pay a few bucks for it and it would come in handy.
