I can't get the mission to my iPod- It shows an error message:
"Download Error-Downloaded mission pack is invalid"

Can someone try downloading this mission to see if it is a problem with my ipod or the mission?

http://www.box.net/shared/rnedexbkev

It's a PDB file.

Thanks


EDIT:
I've uploaded the file to the mission sharing category, but it's not appearing in my device. Help?

It takes some time before it shows up, try waiting for about a hour or so.

Within 30 minutes it'll be ready. Two things happen: it goes on the add-on mission pack list, and the MP servers get notified of it.

trundley, your mission is in the add on mission pack list and I can download it from the game, but it has no mission packs. To fix this, first load your mission into the editor, then use File -> Export Mission Pack. This will export any currently loaded mission into the mission pack.

Then, edit your original mission post and replace the download, then wait 30 minutes for it to propagate to the MP servers.

Hope this helps!

Thanks For the heads up! I can't see it though, I'll reinstall the game see if this fixes the problem. Thanks for the advice, this is also probably why custom URL doesn't work

kay, i just installed the 1.6version of the game and nothing. Still not there. I exported the mission pack like you told me.

load the .ld file in editor

file>export mission pack and saved it as Rebel Forces TEST

uploaded this to rapidshare. Nothing, still get the same error as before.

hmmm i have no idea what is going on. Hey i've just had an idea. Why dont you guys tell me the filepath of where the maps are saved on my ipod and i can SSH the map to it, then ill properly host it here when its ready! this would be great, and so much easier.
