Mod Tools - Faction owner missing!

[Kasan Moor]

I try to build a simple map but when i add spawn point and position marker and try to change the faction owner it just says "[MISSING]" . Whats wrong?

[Lord hobo]

just ignore it, there are the other factions there such as empire, rebs and black sun, start to type in empire then click on the drop down arrow it should be there then

It's possible that one or more of the factions are for the expansion and don't show up in the version of the editor you have. In any case, markers should always be set to neutral faction.

the problem with the [MISSING] option of the Fatcion Owner dropdown is caused by the language version of your EaW. if you are using any other language version then english, then you get this problem with the map editor.

 

but its easy to fix

take a look into your Star Wars Empire at War\GameData\Data\Text folder, there should be the file: MasterTextFile_(your language version).DAT

make a copy and rename it to: MasterTextFile_ENGLISH.DAT

you should have the file twice then, your original and a renamed copy. dont just rename the original file, or your EaW wont start anymore. simple, isnt it?

open? you dont need to open any file. just find it, make a copy and rename the copy.
