Map won't export?

[Greekjr14]

Me and a few other people are having trouble exporting maps that were all made from an imported existing map called hide_and_destroy. It cannot be that the file is too big because I took out mroe than half of the map and whatnot. Attached is a screenshot of teh error that we get. Please tell us what this means. Thanks.

Looks like there's an illegal (super-long) path buried in the map's resource directory. Here's what you probably want to do:

1) Open a terminal
2) Change to the edit directory for the map you're working on, probably something like:
cd /Applications/Altitude/editor/maps/tbd_hide_teams_map
3) Remove the offending directory
rm -r "_derived/dist/.image/images/images copy"

I would expect export to work after that.

Ok thanks. Can you tell me what to cahnge the file extenstions to on a PC?

On a PC you'd go to the matching directory (C:\Program Files\Altitude\_derived\dist\.image\images\images copy) and delete that directory. It's probably easiest to fix the file on your Mac, export it, then re-import it on your PC/wherever else (the broken path should be gone).
