I don't know how I can put this any plainer. >.< I have the objects in thier proper folders in map-mker, and they show in map-maker when I test it. But when I save the map and go test it in-game, they do not show up.

I'm having the same problem. But when I make a separate group for the objects, and put them in the map folder, they still don't show up on the map when other people download it.

As I said, export the objects and the map before testing it ingame.

As Rimfrost said.

When your making a map, the map file will also show up in cape. But it wont show everything in the map, or somethings may look out of place, this is because it is almost like a mirage type of map. When you go and EXPORT the map and then test it back in cape, you will then see two portals to the same map, one is the map u just exported, and the other is the mirage map. All you have to do is later remove old raw map files from your terrain folder if you completed the map designs and such. I usually keep my raw map files in a  separate folder on my desktop in case i ever wanna go back and touch it up :)

And you are sure you're making custom groups in object maker?

For instance, if I had an object loaded named "Building1" I wouldn't save it into any of the default groups, but for the group name, save it as "CFObjects".

Are sure not putting into default groups? I.e my plants, my rocks, miscellaneous etc?

Need to create custom groups, can not use the default ones come with game. Thought had said this in beginning but you must have misunderstood.

You'll have to replace all your meshes on map.

>.> Thats what I SAID. I did not say 'MyRocks', I said 'Rocks'. I did not say 'MyPlants' I said 'Plants'. I did not say 'MyTrees' I said 'Trees'. although... come to think of it, I didn't replace the objects yet. I'll try it.
