I've become very accustom to using the editor in EM4 but not sure how to load the map when I'm in the editor so that I can see all of the buildings, streets, etc... is there a way to turn that on when I'm in the Editor? otherwise, its just that grid.

First, load the mod, secondly load the map by choosing "Map" in the toolbar. Load up the map called freeplay if that's what you want to edit.

Check out my public mod, Honolulu Modification
I speak Swedish, Finnish, English and German (only a little German).

The massive image has been removed. Refer to the ToS for acceptable sizes.

hi guys, I was wondering: once I opened the freeplay in the map, I add a vehicle in it, simply parked in the streets, I just want it to be there ready to use so I don't have to call it through my menu, how come does it disappear once I start my freeplay? (in the editor the vehicle is where I put it)

There's 2 free play maps that have the same name make sure you load the SECOND ONE and save it and that should solve your problem. You will also have to put a person/people for the vehicle.

Hope this helps,

How do you add a person/people to that car?

You just have to put the person next to the vehicle and when the game starts then select them and put them in the vehicle.

I actually thought of that but wasn't sure if there was another better way. Thanks a lot.
