Missing Files From Terrain Editor

Sounds like you've corrupted the file which controls the objects such as airfields but it's hard to say. It could also be the country file so try that first, it will save deleting all your field work if the TE doesn't crash. Remember to save often and re-open your terrain, or restart the TE as is often recommended.

Find your project folder:

C:\Program Files\HTC\ah2editor\ahiiterr\

Delete the file .FLD, this is the binary country file.

See if you can run the TE, if that works, be sure to reset the field ownership like MachNix said; Menu-Settings:Fields.

If that still doesn't work... Rename the folder to anything else and relaunch the TE. This will keep the TE from loading your corrupt object file. Create a new project with the same name as your old project, exit and copy your elevation and type files and texsrc folder into the new project folder. You should have your elevation and tile-types intact but you'll loose all your fields etc., probably just as well anyway. Save the terrain and start placing your objects again. Hope this makes sense.

But is there a way to make it so that the players who play on my map wouldn't have to do that? I didn't know that and I'm guessing alot of other people don't... but thats just me.
Thanks,

A lot of people do use the zoom feature. It's natural because a lot of maps are small (When H2H was still around.)

Sigh, how I wish Spiricom didn't have to come along.

There is no map room on the fields. Map rooms are in towns that attach to fields.

Why not just give him Denholm's TE tutorial? It would answer most of his questions at once, give him a once through on a map, and be much easier on you all.
