Thread: Shp files input for MPC compilation

This utility is very sensitive and it is necessary to check the list of types and all objets included on the map.

See 'README' in the mp2shp distro:

If the last line of output was anything else then "Done", the shapes are most likely broken.
Always check the last line of the output and the content of _logfile.txt

Read ibid.:

To get the list of types which are missing, type:

./_checktypes.pl file.mp

and look at _missing.txt

Also, see "TROUBLESHOOTING" in the same place ...

P.S. Thus, it's better to install Cygwin or Linux on VirtualBox and you'll be happy ...
