Can not display maps

[ananda]

I attempted to create a map from background, but at the end, it displayed "Can not display maps! Map View was turned off!"

Reloading the project and attempting to select "Display maps" also gives this error:





I now have an unusable project file. What can I do do recover the content?

Hello George,

I added you username to the Testing SBuilderX313 category. This category is not hidden to you. I suggest that you check if you can open the project with version 313.

If that fails and if the project is really important, you can send it to me and I could try to recover.

Note that large maps use a lot of memory. Each pixel takes at least 4 bytes. Could you evaluate the memory that your map uses? Still I am very interested to know if version 313 can handle larger maps.

Best Regards, Luis

ps: there was a problem with the email of this forum and many users could not validate their registration.

EDITED: to recover open the project with map view off and export as a SBX file. Then open this file with Notepad and try to delete the map references. Then import the modified SBX. Make backups first.

Thank you Luis, I did recover the project by exporting the bln then creating a new project.

I have now installed X313 and it started correctly. However, having applied all of the updates, it will not start:



TileServer.DLL dated 28th May is in the Tiles folder.

It's OK. I moved TileServer.DLL to the root folder and SBuilderX now starts.

Ok George,

For further comments or reports relating to the test version, please use the other forum.

I am also encountering the same problem. I try to load a saved project (rather larger) and SBuilderX won't load up. It says it can not display maps. Would it be possible to try out the new test version 313 also and see if it works?

Thanks,
Marcos
