Problem - YesWeCamp - 25 Aug 11

Guys, I have a problem. I was making a map and then my laptop crashed. No problem, because there are the .BAK files still to use. So what i do:

Go to: Packages/maps
i see that there is still one .cgz file of the map that i was making.

So i start assaultcube, type /sendmap "mapname" and after /coop "mapname" on the multiplayer mode. But it appears that its not the map that i saved the latest. So what i do:

I go to packages/maps
I change the extension of the most recent save from .BAK into .cgz and even put the old .cgz map in the recycle bin.

So i start ac again and type again sendmap, but then it says: could not read file packages/maps/"mapname"

I tried a lot of things, but it seems that nothing works so i give it a try here.

Thanks in Advance.

Something's wrong there already - you should actually get an error message ("file already exists").

Just to be sure: I hope it doesn't actually and exactly say that, right?

Ah that made me find out! Thanks. The .BAK files were like this:

"mapname_1314308746.BAK" so i changed it into:
"mapname.cgz"

Before i only changed the extension. Thanks for the help peeps;)
