*Fixed!* "Failed to load map file" "Failure parsing entity 19: Parsed invalid value '}' for key'."

*Fixed!*

 

Worked the past -12- hours on a little something and get "Failure parsing entity 19: Pared invalid value '}' for key'. Aaand of course I don't have a backup, but the map is still running in TDM in test mode.

 

Is there a way to fix this or dump the map file from the game?

 

 

 

Edit: I opened the .map file with Wordpad (Not Noteblock, as it can't save in the right format), searched and removed the responsible lines corrupting the file and were able to load the map into DR again.

I could open the map file with Wordpad (Not notepad, or it couldn't save the format again!)

 

Searched for the invalid text and deleted the responsible strings, and it works again now. Phew!

 

Thanks for coming to the rescue though, nbohr1more :)

No problem. Glad this worked!

 

I would suggest you try "Notepad++" next time. Microsoft has a habit of placing unwanted markup in their document formats...

Yeah, I like Notepad++ because it intelligently pick's up delimiters in most document formats.

 

You can even install a Doom Script plugin and see your script files in color.

 

I haven't checked whether there's an equivalent map or material plugin but I suspect it wouldn't be too hard to create

one... hmmm...

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
