My friend asked me if I could post for him about this error om scmdraft.

When he tries to save, the error posted below comes up.

Description below -

1. you can save but the map corrupts when playing on SC
2. you can save but the error comes up
3. there are no sounds in the map, no trigs, only unit placement

that error should only occur when Scmdraft cannot access the file, and then it shouldn't save at all.
does he get this with every map?

if he still gets this in 0.5.5 he should contact me.

[FONT=Optima]I have trouble with SCMDraft saving too, when i try to save a file in SCXE that i edited with SCMD, it returns "cannnot open <filename> for writing! And ince the trigger-lang in SCMDraft is ike StarForge's, i cant use it for trig editing, and im making UMS maps!

that should not be caused by the current releases of scmdraft, that bug has been fixed previously. I believe SF still causes that error message tho.

To fix this you have to do the following;

Get WinMPQ, and once you've got it, open it up, and find the Map in question and select it to see whats inside. You should see the map.chk, any sound files, and a (ListFile), delete the (ListFile) and it'll save fine.

actually, I just remembered there is one more place this can occur.
if the HDD you are saving on doesn't have enough room to save the map completely the archive is corrupted. so make sure you aren't saving on a full drive.
