You guys must get organized... the same happened to Huntakillaz in the other thread. :P
Ok, seriously: Just post the correct WP (got the modified map, only the WP) here whenever you can. I'll be off to work in a few hours, and afterwards I'm gonna go directly to a friend's bbq party, so it'll take some time until I can look at them...

I've got a waypoint sorter... it came included with my smarty-brains :D

No, really, I think I never sent the wrong WP to anyone. And all I do is rename them and put them in different folders. I have something like this:
1) An archive folder with 1000's of PB 2.5 WPs by all kinds of people and in all kinds of quality. I use them to playtest a map a bit, get a hang of it and to see where choke points are.
2) My "active" WP folder (cstrike\addons\podbot\wptdefault), which contains all the WP files I'm currently working at. I only copy WPs into that folder if (a) I didn't have any before or (b) if I'm 200% sure that I want to replace a crappy one I have with a WP some good WPer like SF made. The ones I'm working at are no more than 3 at a time, and I don't work with different parallel versions. I overwrite them as I tweak them further and further, no problem there.
3) My "finished" folder, where I copy every WP I made, tweaked and tested.
That's it. Should I be really in doubt and there are two of my WPs for one & the same map (which never happens), I check dates - the newer, the better it must be.

Usually I work like this:
A) Get any Wp for the map, check out the map.
B) See that the WP sucks (it usually does, 90% I'd say)
[ B2) ] If it doesn't suck, tweak camp flags to make it PB2.6mm-comp. => D
C) Rename it to xxxxOLD.pwf and start making a good one
D) Finish & test, until it's perfect, then copy into "finished" folder.
And then, even if I overwrote my entire wptdefault folder (which I'd NEVER do), nothing would happen.
You guys, however, seem to have various versions (all made by you) for one and the same map somewhere, but why? Beats me. ???:(

lol have to say the same thing

i have one folder for all of my stuff........when im DONE with a waypoint....it goes there....the packs ive released stay in the zip inside this folder so i have no chance of deleting them.....if im on a map and for some reason i know i did the waypoint and its not mine...i reinstall my zip files.....simple. its an over write that solves the problem.

the ones im working on just stay in the folder where they belong.....until they are DEEMED done...and they stay there too but are copied to my other
"SF WPs" folder.....

if i check a map like T said....and the waypoint sucks...90% like he said, i toss it then start new....so theres no confusion at all.....i mean..why keep a shity waypoint?

i also have a seperate folder for each waypoint of any esteem like T my buddy or a few others who are ok.

that was my 3 1/2 cents

Yeah... my program is called double-click. ;) PWF's are associated with notepad / wordpad, and the name of the WPer is always in the first line of the file. :)
