map editor help

Actually you can't edit a star to be a sphereworld. In the map editor stars are stars and sphereworlds are planets. What you do is delete the star and add a planet, select spherworld as the size, choose your atmosphere, and pick the sphereworld image.

I stand corrected on the Matrix Mod Launcher. I must have downloaded the map editor during the same session. At any rate, it can be accessed from the mod launcher.

my map editor is Version 1.31 is this the latest Version ?(some downloaded maps wont load)

The map editor has not been updated in years.

(some downloaded maps wont load)

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.
