| I have been working on my own map and I can't seem to run this custom map. I went into the Giants editor with Gold crest Valley and exported the entire map into my own folder. From there I started to work on the map and decided to test it out. After grueling hours of trouble shooting, I found out I did not have a modDesc.xml file. I went and copied one from the sample mods so I have one now. Everything loads correctly except for the modDesc.xml file, giving me a missing descVersion attribute. Here is the modDesc.xml file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no" ?> <modDesc descVersion="30"> <author>A Name</author> <version>1.0.0.0</version> <title> <en>Sample Mod Map 1</en> </title> <description> <en>This is the sample mod map 1.</en> </description> <iconFilename>icon.dds</iconFilename> <multiplayer supported="true"/> <maps> <map id="Custom Map" className="Mission00" filename="$dataS/scripts/missions/mission00.lua" configFilename="maps/map01.xml" defaultVehiclesXMLFilename="defaultVehicles.xml"> <title> <en>Sample Mod Map 1</en> </title> <description> <en>This is the sample mod map 1.</en> </description> <iconFilename>maps/map01_preview.dds</iconFilename> </map> </maps> </modDesc> The file paths are correct with what I have, and for the images they should be dds's.

| "Error: Failed to open .." indicates the "modDesc.xml" could not be found or read. Most probably you have it in the wrong folder. It must be immediately in the mod's folder, not inside a subfolder. |
