Missing map editor key - Page 2

tjmcs my guess is that you have failed to patch the game to its latest version correctly. Look at the bottom of the main screen when the game has started it should read WinSPMBT v6.0-DL. See the attached screenshot.

Mustang I believe we are talking about the in-game map editor not the CamoMapEdit.exe that is a CD version only feature.

The menu in question here is the second page in the in-game map editor where you can go to the "MAP GENERATOR" and tweak the different values.

Tkank you for all the help, guys. For what ever reason, my issue corrected itself. The third time yesterday I reinstalled it (fourth time overall), it took noticably longer to download the update. So far, so good. Do not know if this has anything to do with it but my internet connection to Shrapnelgames.com was crawling. The entire last download was faster. Thank you again.

Roger.

I downloaded and installed the free version from the Shrapnel website for the sake of it. I'm running Windows 7.

It's not showing up as far as I can tell. Attached are Screen1.jpg and Screen2.jpg, or screens 1 and 2 from the free CD version (not the retail version) of the game.

But it shows up fine in the retail/CD version. RS1 and RS2.jpg show my retail version SPMBT editor screens.

So you downloaded the free version of the game and the update and made sure the update had run correctly and the version number was reported as 6.0 in the main menu of the game and still can not see those buttons?

You see the free game is version 1.0 and it will not show those buttons in the editor since those features were not implemented in that old version of the game. This is why you need to make sure you have also updated the game to its latest version.

Oops. Never downloaded the update.

I'm not reporting it as a problem, just testing. I'll patch and get back.

And everything's okay. The map editor shows up on Windows 7, 6.0 patched DL version.
