I've been customizing my localization files, e.g ....You got a §C1001Healing Point!§C1001 (§C1001+1§C1001) all was goin' fine until.....
#1.On the login screen I now have the "QUIT" in the top right corner, the same button from the Main Page ?
I also got the same "QUIT" button on the Join Local  insert PASSWORD page, top right corner ???
#2.AHHHH ! I noticed that NOW I'm missing "ZATAR WETLANDS" from the SINGLEPLAYER Map Menu in game.
It's the only one that's missing. I have this in the Localization file still, HUD_LEVELNAME_Zatar_Wetlands  Zatar Wetlands
and there's another one down further on the page that says this, HUD_LEVELNAME_wetlands        Zatar Wetlands
I had made a back up just in case, so I loaded that back in (just pasted it over the other) and......NOTHING ?
Can anybody help as I like to play that map (mainly just to practice sniping on).
and checking that my editing is all A.O.K ! "Zatar Wetlands" is still in the LEVELS folder,
and I even replaced the whole bf2 folder with a back up and ......NOTHING ?
HELP ! Muchly Appreciated      Many +Karma for HELP !

Can you check that you still have Zatar Wetlands in the "Create Local" menu under "Multiplayer"?

I severly doubt (im 99% sure), that this is unrelated to you editing your localizations. All the localizations do is to convert the long strings (i.e HUD_Levels_whatever_whateverelse to "Zatar Wetlands"- the only way you could possibly remove Zatar Wetlands from the singleplayer menu would be to set the string to nothing- and even then I think the game corrects it for you.

Generally, Zatar Wetlands showing up in the Singleplayer menu is controlled by the mapname.desc file in the /mods/bf2/Levels/Zatar_Welands/Info/ folder-  if you don't have the map name in the multiplayer menu, then my guess is that your .desc folder has either been deleted, or is corrupt.

YES that still works fine.
The map still comes up in MULTI as well (NOT RED)

The Zatar Wetlands.desc file is still in the info folder too.
I have NOT done anything else to BF2 but edit the localization (English.utxt) file.
Thankx for your time.....+1 Karma to you

In the localisation files you have 2 "columns" if you like- the type like "Hud_something_whatever_lol_anothething" and then "Zatar Wetlands".
If you delete the whole line by accident, all that happens is that you get the "Hud_something_whatever_lol_anothething" showing up ingame- the Localizations arn't vital to the game- if you delete the whole folder, the game still works fine.
If you set "Zatar Wetlands" to " " by accident, I believe the game counters this by, again, showing the "Hud_something_whatever_lol_anothething".

Have you got any custom maps inside the levels folder? - if you do, try taking them out temporarily.

Try downloading my version of the Zatar Wetlands.desc file (http://mattlunn.me.uk/ftp/zatar_desc.zip)- just replace the old version with this.

I know you said that you have only touched the Localization files- but I see no possible way you can delete Zatar Wetlands from the singleplayer menu without....
  • Having "Hud_something_whatever_lol_anothething" showing up where Zatar Wetlands should be.
  • Having a blank space where Zatar Wetlands should be, which will still load up the map if you click it.

Have you got any custom maps inside the levels folder? - if you do, try taking them out temporarily.
After all I'm pretty sure that "other CUSTOM maps" are causing the conflict in single player with "Zatar Wetlands"
If I take SOME custom maps out it reappears, I can leave a couple of custom maps in there (16) and NO problem,
the couple I leave in there just support SP (16) and SOME of the other ones support (16) (32) (64) player SP.
I tried to put a custom map in 1 at a time and "Zatar" is gone again, even if its a map that just supports SP (16)
This wasn't the case before.
