Could not load imported files

[colinjames12]

I'm not really sure when this exactly happened but almost all of my imported files(I have more than a hundred of imported files) could not be loaded in my map. Well the file size of my map has been cut in to half after it happened but I'm not sure what caused this. Are they corrupted? Should I re-import them all?

Well, if they worked before and all of them just suddenly stopped working, then yes they probably got corrupted. Here is what you should do:

• Try looking the Warcraft III\Maps\Test folder and see if you have a working backup for it.
• If the above step doesn't end up with any useful results, try testing your map even though the files could not be loaded. See if the models show up. If so, then it might be an editor-related problem.
• If you have JASS NewGen Pack, open its folder and look for the folder "backups". Then go through them in your editor (A, B, C... etc.) until you find one that works. Then make a copy of it just in case. It is best to go through them by most recent date so that you won't have a super old version.
• Try sending your map to someone real quick and see if the models load for them.

Otherwise, yes, you should backup your map and then reimport everything and see if it works.

Thank you that was quick. It wasn't an editor-related problem. The files must have been corrupted cause all of them suddenly don't work. I just re-imported most of them(they are several files that was still working) from my backup file and they're working now.
