(Sorry about the double post, I had originally posted in the modding tutorial section and was advised to move my thread)
Hi,

I've just started learning how to make maps for BF2 and now the editor keeps crashing when ever I try to create a new map. It displays a unhandled exception error and asks me if I want to see the dump folder, then quits. I am using the v3 BF2 editor and I'm using the link found here https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f189...t-mapping.html as my guide.

In the debugger tool bar I saw multiple warnings like these at startup:
Ignored Warning[Base] : Template with name: UnlockUSAssault already exists. Setting existing one as active.
Ignored Warning[Console] : Unknown object or method!: ObjectTemplate.saveInSeparateFile 1 (objects/vehicles/air/uav_pred/uav_pred.con)

Does anyone have any idea why this is?

Ignore them, they come up on everyones editor.

Now did you say you crashed?

Uh, yes. I don't quite know what to do about it. Is this a rare occurrence?

I dont know how I didnt see that sorry.

I know it may suck but I would reinstall, I had a bunch of stupid error too and a fresh complete install fixed most of them...

Also whats your rigs spec if you dont mind?

Just open the editor try to open a map, and you will see a list of million maps you have created where after your editor crashed.

You actually DID create the maps,.. but it makes the editor crash.

So when you have created a map, Your editor will crash, just start it up again.. open the map you just created.. and you can mapper away.

I had/have the same problem.
