Protector Question

The protector works fine. But how does it actually protect the map? I protect the map I want protected. and i go to editor and open it up like its not protected at all. How does it stop people from editing it? Or am i doing something wrong?

could someone please answer this?

I 'll assume that you're using weedar's protector.

It will cause an error when you try to open the map on the worleditor. If you still can open it, you're doing something wrong. Also make sure to backup your map before protecing it, so you can keep a openable version of it.

im using the map protector that i downloaded from this site.

Use my map editor instead:
W3Z Map Editor.
If you have any problem, lemme know.
