Running your game from the editor loads the map that is opened in the editor. When published the map is loaded you have specified in app.lua.

What is the exact url for this fix i cant find it sadly or do i have to buy it from http://aggrortutorials.com/ ????

Just save your first map you want loaded as "start.map".

[Imchasinyou]

IF your first map is named differently, you can also open the app.lua script and lines 26,27,28 are where the first map is loaded.

 

--Load a map
local mapfile = System:GetProperty("map","Maps/start.map") --start.map is being loaded.
if Map:Load(mapfile)==false then return false end

 

You can change the start.map to what ever the map name is that you have or just resave your map as "start" and it should load up just fine.

 

("map","Maps/start.map") Maps refers to the folder that the map is in and start.map is the actual map name.

 

Over kill on the info but maybe it helps some one down the line. . . . .

im still stuck some how? you explained well is just im clearly not getting the key aspect or something idk?

Whats got ya hung up buddy? What can i do to make this easier for you. Ill be more than happy to help you. What is the main maps name? You want to take that main maps name and put that into the APP.lua script as shown above OR you rmain maps name needs to be "start".

 

So, open Leadwerks, in the asset browser, go to scripts and right there should be app.lua. double click it and it will open in the lua editor. As I shown you above, you can change the maps name to match the map that your trying to load.

ok i get all that i just want to find out were to find my main map (feel so stupid) lol i normally find it easy i just dont know were to find it thats my only problem

Just go into the leadwerks project manager and double-click on the project name.

the explorer should start with your project directory open already.

[Imchasinyou]

You can also look in the project folder that can be found in the "documents" folder on your computer in the maps folder.

 

the path would look like, C:\Users\Andrew\Documents\Leadwerks\Projects\Project Name\Maps

[beo6]

Your Projects don't necessarily have to be inside the projects folder.

 

For example when you import a project it can stay everywhere.

 

I guess you could even change the default project folder.
