Ok so this all started because I tried to get my mini map to work, and I got a few errors with that but in the end i got it sorta working, I was able to get the minimap working in the game, but for sumreason it wasnt mine, it was another map. So I think I had another map I downloaded ages ago with the same name. So I decided to rename my map along with all the files, like the FX file, GSC, CSV and the others. But now im getting some fast file error!, saying it cant locate the CSV file. Its sais its looking for it in Maps/mp_mapname So i looked in raw/maps and theres nothing there with CSV. So whats it talking about?! and where the hell Can I find the CSV file so I can rename it to the new map. Please help! this is just a nightmare right now.

Not sure about your error but your .csv should e located: \zone_source\yourlevelname.csv

Does your map run normally? If so, you can ignore this error. It will go away once you properly make your loadscreen. Your ff compile does two things in the following order: it compiles your map.ff, and your _load.ff. The _load.ff compile is when you are getting your .csv error, because it is looking for the .csv that is created when you make your loadscreen in asset manager. If you haven't done this yet, don't worry about it. Once you go through the loadscreen creation-process the error goes away. DO NOT try and move your regular zone_source .csv into the maps folder, as this will give you a number of erroneous errors as the compiler thinks this is your loadscreen csv. They are two different files (even though they share the same filename) I know because I made the same mistake and thought my .csv was messed up; turns out I just tried to put it in my maps folder thinking it would make the error go away. Hope that makes sense.

Yer my map does run normally, Thats another thing that got me confused lol. I took a break last night, cuz I thought I was gona pass out with rage and think Ive found the solution. By typing in the searh box with COD4 file selected, I can locate all my original maps CSV files and just rename them that way. If that doesnt work I'll take ya advise illram and ignore it. Will try it now N let ya know what happens ;) Edited: Nope didn't work, Stil coming up witht hat damn error. Took a screen shot anyway thinkin it might give you a better Idea. Another thing is I dont understand why it sais fastfile 2 of 2, wierd http://img502.imageshack.us/my.php?image=error1xe0.jpg edited on Mar. 18, 2008 07:46 am by Arkadian

Fastfile 2 of 2 is the mp_mapname_load.ff This contains the information the game needs to load before it can show the loadscreen (e.g. the loadscreen image).

Arkadian, like I said above, DO NOT go around renaming .csv's and moving them! Your fastfile error is normal, as it is for the _load ff not the regular ff. There are two fastfiles. If you try and move the wrong .csv into the folder where the _load.ff looks for it you'll get a boatload of errors. Sit tight and wait until you get to the loadscreen process, that's when this error goes away.
