fo2 mapper and several maps

Dépôtville (junktown)

First time out of the vault
Hello,
I'm looking anywhere a solution about my problem with fo2 mapper, but I find nothing (English isn't my first language too. All my apologies for that and if solution is somewhere in forum).

All my changes (edit) inside fo2 mapper and about DENBUS2.MAP are not, and every time, DENBUS2.MAP is still original and without my previous changes done in fo2 mapper. I don't know why, perhaps it is my mapper2.cfg (?). I haven't those problems with several other maps.
Thank you in advance.

I like fo2 mapper, it is a great program.
All the best.
 
Hey there,

In your mapper2.cfg, did you set the line "librarian=1"?

Regarding your nickname, I'm assuming you're French so you might want to check those two tutorials about Fallout2 modding :

But my problem is still there.
I'm not sure to understand your 2th link (it isn't clear about c:\fallout2\dev\proto\, what is c:\fallout2\dev\proto\ path? Was it used by the Fallout 2 builders?).
Do you think there is a link with my problem? Thank you.

In my C:\Program files\Black Isle\Fallout 2\data\maps\ path, I have DENBUS2.MAP and DENBUS2.CFG and them created by fo2 mapper. But when I open this map, no change.
I have Windows 7 and my UAC is activated. UAC or not, I haven't problem with artemple.map or KLADWTWN.MAP, so I don't think it is UAC (?).

Hello and Happy New Year to all!
"Soda_fr" isn't on the forum anymore. His count seems to be deleted (?). Why? Am I responsible by one of my messages here in answer to him? I hope no.

On december, I had used Dataexplorer and now, I understand about "fallout2\dev\proto\".

Perhaps my problem is by patch000.dat and its several maps inside it (?).
All my attempts were without success.
Best greetings.

I'm still around. No idea why my nickname disappeared in my previous post tough, but I guess it was due to the forum migration.
Unfortunately, I have no answer to your question. I can only advise you to install both Fallout2 and its mapper outside of the program
files folder and check the modding wiki about mapping tutorials.

I think the patch000.dat shouldn't be problem to edit and save new maps, but it's been a while since I did something with the mapper so
I could be wrong.
Maybe a more experienced mapper could help you...

Bonjour,
Very late answer by me!
Ok, surely a bug inside the machine in your case. It's Nice, that you are still here on the forum (in my case, my introduction to you (on the forum), was deleted when forum migration).
For the moment, I'm not looking about my problem. But, I will look again, where my problem is.
