halp

[ballard_44]

here's my .dll, that you are apparently missing

goes in the main Battlefield 2 folder

regardless, what do the crash dumps tell you?

[HughJass]

Thanks A LOT ballard, you are great great help.

I will get back to you ASAP


@ jonny

there is a heat object under /weapons that the staticobjects.con wants to run, but I can't find that anywhere else...whenever I delete it from the con after running it reappers.

[HughJass]

Alright, after clicking trough it twice (didnt copy and paste the right build in to PR folder the first time lol)

?

[HughJass]

Has to be a con, tester or dev. It has new statics in it. But I dont know if those should be a problem, i mean muttrah doesnt crash and it has all of those statics...hmmm

[HughJass]

ill try that, and actually the new statics MIGHT be the problem...im going to try all sort of things.

[HughJass]

its deff not statics, just deleted everything except vehicals and it still effs up.

[HughJass]

Alright, well how can it be statics if there is none yet it still crashes. I'll do vehicals next...

the bf2_r is old and out of date so it shows stuff that still works you should be able to keep clicking continue through everything...there may be a lot to click through. I have seen those errors and i just clicked through them and everything worked.

I CTDed at 14% as well, so why not try this Init.con? Besides, Objects could be trying to load the basic spawn kits, and they're not there. It wouldn't hurt to try. It can help you or do nothing. That's a chance I'd be willing to take.

You'll have to add your map name where I specify. Have an underscore '_' for spaces ' '.

the bf2_r is old and out of date so it shows stuff that still works you should be able to keep clicking continue through everything...there may be a lot to click through. I have seen those errors and i just clicked through them and everything worked.

I clicked trough...and a smaller window came up and said the application generated an error and there was a dump file included (or something like that, all i could click was ok) and it crashed

I didn't try this AFTER removing all the statics yet.

[HughJass]

well, i made a small breaktrough.

So i made a new map and basically copied everything from the original, to the new (and renamed all the cons).

I fired it up and it WORKED! But, there was no terrain.

So i hoped in the editor and added some land to it, saved it, and fired it up again.

And then bam, it crashed at 14%.

Halp?

[HughJass]

Did you texture all the terrain properly?
(Tpaint is nice and quick)

What exactly do you mean by 'no terrain'? can we have a SS?

What did you copy to get the terrain working?
I think it needs to be heightmapprimary (.raw & .mat) and terraindata.raw

Although, with the terrain being the thing that screws it it could be an issue with objects glitching into the terrain, but I dont know where such an error would pop up. I may not pop up at all either, you glitch a lot of objects without anything bad happening AFAIK.

It could be just that when ever I save it, something screws up (with objects most likely) and makes the game crash.

By no terrain, I mean terrain goes back to default (so when I first started the map, thats what the terrain is, aka flat and below the water)

I used t paint, but textured it later of course again

[HughJass]

halp rhino, halp jonny, why don't you halp me ?

sorry, im just mad I've got time now and I can't really work on the map :\
