Are these custom built mountains or ZE mountains? either way remove them to confirm the cause of the crash, it could be the water.

There ZeroEditor made, I raised the Terrain.

I added a few objects which made the tower in the screenshot, it worked.

I added the water around the tower, it worked.

I added the mountains, it crashed.

I did, it works, but I really need the mountains, and I think it's crazy there are lots of other maps with all types of mountains and terrain changes and mine isn't working >_> I've done the same thing in another map. Even adding a little hill will make it crash. Anything else I can do to try to make them work?

okay, thast strange. How much work have you done? If its not much, try transferring it over to a new data_*** folder and see if it still crashes. Otherwise, try removing water and see if the problem persists.

Tried all of that, it's the terrain.

Is the terrain size a power of 2?

try making a new data_*** folder and resuming your project from there.

I guess if for some reason your copy of the game (or perhaps your computer) cannot handle raised/lowered terrain, then really the only way to get mountains is to model them in a 3D modeling program, but that takes too long and does not work or look as well as ZE terrain. I would first try what Loopy said.

I don't think the problem is his computer, since I assume he can play every other stock BFII map (they have bumpy terrain).
