Have you ever made one little change on your map, munge and then get all sorts of really weird errors? Then you hit 'clean' in VisualMunge but that doesn't help? Well this tutorial will teach you how to do a manual clean. This is something you should really try hard to remember, because eventually it will save you a lot of trouble.

How to do a manual clean:
----------------------------------------
(replace *** with your 3 letter map ID)

Delete all files in the following folders:
data_***/_BUILD/SIDE/***/MUNGED/PC --do this for each side you've munged
data_***/_BUILD/WORLDS/***/MUNGED/PC

Delete any LVL and REQ files in the following folders
data_***/_BUILD/SIDE/***
data_***/_BUILD/WORLDS/***
data_***/_LVL_PC/SIDE
data_***/_LVL_PC/*** --Your world name

Finally delete your map from
/Star Wars Battlefront II/Gamedata/Addon

That's a manual clean. Try munging again after that.
