    Hopefully somebody with modding experience will download the map and also find that it doesn't work for them and they might be able to figure out why.
    If the map didn't load for me I would have to remove one item and try loading it again. If it didn't load then put the item back and try another item. A long process. It could be more than one item causing the issue making it even harder to find.
    As I don't have an issue I can't really remove anything and test it as it is already working for me :(
    Maybe I should upload it to the mods section for approval and see if the moderator spots anything funky with it before they approve it.

    Ok so there is an updated version in the main post. I have no idea if its fixed the loading problem, but it has reduced the file size from 307MB to189MB.

    what's changed?
    I converted all the textures to .dds (much smaller file size)
    I removed some unused models left over from other map projects.
    I fixed the streetlights to come on only at night(they were stuck on 24/7)
    Added a rotating light to the lighthouse too.

    If it still doesn't load for you then I can't really do much else.
    The map still loads fine for me so fingers crossed it loads for you. If not then all I can say is sorry and thanks for trying. :)

    where did you put the mod? Its working for Alex_farmer557 in the post above. Did you remove the old version before hand? Wouldn't hurt to clear cache to clear out the old maps files.
    hope you figure it out. :)

    It was my mistake. But right now I try to load the map and have to say that process stuck at 6% for 10 min. And I've cleared cache before.

    I can help you on the file/folder management side if you'd like me to. Just shoot me a PM if want the help.

    well I spent the last 5 days converting all the materials to .dds, fixing the scenarios and started laying down decal roads under the mesh road to allow for some AI traffic. only done about 1/3 of the roads so far.
    I also removed a bunch of unneeded gubbins that my nooby self had smeared all over the place.
    I fixed the streetlights to come on at night again and I made a selection of spawn points to choose from.

    The file which was 596MB zipped is now 309MB zipped, so once I finish doing the ai roads I should be within the 488 MB upload limit.

    I should have an upload ready in the not too distant future. I just hope people can actually load it......

    Your sense of entitlement is very strong, ngl.
    Here is a clip of my inferior computer loading the map in under 60 seconds for your enjoyment.

    I spent a long time working on this, and for it to work fine for me but not everyone else is very frustrating for me too. I have gone over everything multiple times and everything works as it should. There has to be A hardware or driver issue or a conflict of some sort. I wish I could troubleshoot it on a pc that cant load it, I would then have something to look out for. As its working perfectly for me there is nothing to troubleshoot. I have nothing left to try other than deleting stuff that makes the map what it is. I'm sorry it doesn't work, I have tried everything I can think of.
