ive checked all the vehiclespawns and they have the cpcontrol right. i cant figure out wats wrong

did u put cp1_control in the vehicle spawn? if you did change it to just cp1

I have similar problems sometimes, but the game waits a while before crashing. I put in "CP#" (where # is the CP number) but it ends the same way.

maybe the regions arent there or they arent written like the line in the vehiclespawn...you should get the missing effects or kill the lines in the odf

You need to add those effect files for sure. Also, the vehicle spawn is looking for the actual command post (if I remember right) and not the control region.

dont know for sure, but in swbf 1 its the control region, i cant look because my ZE doesn work yet(vista...)

That's what I did. The vehicles don't appear and after a while the map crashes.

How would I do cross-era?

it still crashes and now it just says

try some other ways to write the region, only CP#

ive fixed everything now! but it still crashes the game this is wat the bfront log says:

This generally means that there is an error that sptest cannot detect, or crashes before it can document.

You may have to rebuild the map, or browse through the files and make sure everything is set up right.
