Project Reality Forums

Basically I wanted to check out my map ingame. To do so I have followed the tutorials (or more specifically the tutorials on Auditing a map and creating game layers) and I packed it using the map building script. When I tried to launch it in local, the game would crash on the "Starting server" screen with the following error message



And yes the GPO.con is there and properly packed in the server zip. Any help is greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Small note. I actually looked through the BFEditor forums and while I did find something on the error (or at least a very similar one) none of them actually offered actual solutions.

are you sure the game mode and layer you tried to run has a GPO.con for it? Ie, you didn't try running AAS 64 when you only made an INS 64 layer?

I made only 1 layer (which is set to 16p and Skirmish). The GPO.con is in the server.zip in the following directory: gpm_skirmish/16

EDIT: Forgot to mention. While I did set up only that 1 layer, for some odd reason it was showing me 3 variations in the map list (Std, Inf and Alt). Even if I filtered it to show only Skirmish maps, all 3 would show up

My guess is you tried to run the AAS 16 layer then

you need to edit your map's .desc file to have this in it:
Then when you come to run the map, make sure you select skirmish layer.

But I personally always do initial map testing on AAS 64 unless it is GPO testing.

That solved it. Thanks alot
