Most common error: the FS game wasn't installed properly (missing admin rights), so the editor doesn't know the path to game. Setup the path manually in GE Preferences.

Can also be, the map isn't compatible to GE vs.

For errors check the editor log: {USER}\AppData\Local\GIANTS Editor ...\editor_log.txt

i have checked the path and its all ok...i can open every other map i have downloaded and they open fine.... the map is loaded but the perspective camera icon is grayed out.... the map is there...i can click on the icons on the left and the wire frame shows up on the screen but no actual map is showing?? i guess its something to do with the grayed out perspective icon ??? how do i un grey it???

If it is greyed-out, check the 'Visibility' flag. You could also create another 'work camera'.

However quite obviously the author has done something to prevent from easy-editing. So there might be also other obstacles.

I found the problem the camera was set Zoomed in and was under the map so i adjusted the X Y and now its fine....thx for taking the time to respond....
