I have recently been starting to make a map for myself, and my friend to use for MP. I started a couple days ago, and all was good until I tried to open it today. I looked in my editor_log.txt and found this:

I deleted the 'clovercreek' file location, but it still wouldn't open. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

You must edit manually the <Files> pathes in map.i3d for the files which couldn't be loaded.

Michael Tulloch (asian) 10.01.2019 22:32
Where would I find that? Can you give me a file directory pathway to the files? I tried looking for it and can’t find where I need to go.

James Biddulph (Unknown) 10.01.2019 22:47
You need to open the i3d file in a text editor program (I recommend notepad++) the files mentioned are at the top of the file they are inbetween the codes
<Files>
and
</Files>
and look something like
<File fileId="12" filename="potatoes_diffuse.dds"/>
these are the files they are talking about, you need to point it to where the actual file is located, if it is a game file put $data/ in front of the loaction that will tell the i3d file to go to the game files data folder and look in there so for instance the file
Farming Simulator 19/data/foliage/wheat.i3d
needss to be changed to
<File fileId="24" filename="$data/foliage/wheat.i3d"/> (change the number to suit yours)
I am sure this is correct, Giants will correct me if I am wrong.

Ok thanks. I’ll look into that when I get home.

Michael Tulloch (asian) 11.01.2019 00:07
I have found the file location in the i3d file using Notepad++. What do I do from here?
