Mod changes do not save

[tim0984]

Hello!

This might be a stupid question, I've been trying to make my own mod (private) and I just want to start with the basic em4 map. But whenever in the editor I create a unit & unit group and then reload the mod nothing is saved and I have to add everything again (childs, wheels, doors etc) does anyone know why this happens?

What I did:

Create a mod in the editor called it "Greater Montreal"
Create group based on LA Mod folder structure so I called it: "03 Police"
Create prototype, save in mod:Prototype\Vehicles\03 Police\CVPI\svpm01.e4p
Create all the protoypes for wheels, doors, lightbar.
* I check the folders all the files are there *
Close the editor

Open the editor, load my mod
Press F1 to place the CVPI im working on but it is not there? (but it is there in the files)
Oh and the doors I placed in _VehicleParts_doors are also gone
 

Editor is run as administrator
Basically if I save it in any other folder than the default it will not work eventhough I see this file structure work in other mods http://www.emergency-planet.com/uploads/emoticons/default_smile.png

My guess the folder CVPI is excces here. Left the structure like this:

 mod:Prototype\Vehicles\03 Police\svpm01.e4p

Tell us if it helped, gl.

It does work if I leave it in just the "03 Police" folder so I'll stick to that. But that doesn't explain why my wheels (or other vehicle parts) sometimes randomly disappear. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't I can not reproduce the issue every time.

So I have no idea what is happening..

The Em4 editor automatically sorts objects by putting them in the Objects ->VehicleParts section if they are named with 'wheel01' or 'door01'.

Note that your wheels and doors need to be named correctly for them to not disappear from the editor.
