I am putting a little water in my world and it crashes when I play. What's going on? I tried the Dagobah, Kamino, and Kashyyyk water and they all failed.

taer is done with the effects method copyingall the .fx file stuf with the respective worlds effects but there is somethingabout water that makes it really tough. Try Naboo, I heard it's easiest.

Thanks, I'll try that later (water at the moment is a low priority on my map right now).

On a different map (it's basically a copy of the DS map with custom units), the Republic loses 2 units every xSeconds at any random time. It is very annoying and hard to beat the map. Why is this happening? I also played the normal death star map and I think this still happened.

OffTopic: 100th post. Whoo-hoo

fat_walrus, i had that same problem:(. I'll try Kyross' idea as well.

This was in another thread about bleeding. Could be you changed command post settings or a misplaced spawn node is sending soldiers to an immediate doom for a constant reinforcement drain.

Hebes: Another thread inspired me on this page, maybe I should've posted it there

Kyross: I might have changed the bleed settings, maybe there is a node in the assets' DS level because it was the same. I'd check, but my brother's on the computer with all that stuff. I'll check when he's off (hopefully soon)

I am adding cp13 to my map and it crashes. Can you only add 12 cps? I have tried to make a 13th CP and it keeps crashing.

Kyross · Post by **Kyross** » Sun Jun 18, 2006 11:33 pm

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a limit. That gets me thinking though...WHY THE HELL DO YOU NEED 13 CPS?

Big map? Know anything about the crash?

Squirrel7Hunter · Post by **Squirrel7Hunter** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 4:18 pm

the max cp 's you can have is 16, try doing the test thing on yur map

fat_walrus · Post by **fat_walrus** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 4:24 pm

What test thing? 16 Cps?

Kyross · Post by **Kyross** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 7:15 pm

thats it, I couldnt think of what it was called at the time , and the limit of how many cps you can have in a game before it crashes is 16

Kyross · Post by **Kyross** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 7:42 pm

You shouldn't need more then 10 for a medium-large map. 16 cps would be phenomenal.

fat_walrus · Post by **fat_walrus** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 11:38 pm

I'm doing that. If you want some pics of the map I will gladly show you, only at your request.

So you can only get 16 Cps if you run BF2_modtools, and it would crash if you did normal BFII.exe thing?

It might crash because of the memory pools. You checked them, course I'm no expert on memory pools, looked at them but once...

fat_walrus · Post by **fat_walrus** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 11:44 pm

I don't think that would have to do anything with Cps, but I'll check

Kyross · Post by **Kyross** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 3:25 pm

I don't think memory pools has anything to do at all with memory pools. But I do have anothr suspicion. Did you go right from 4 to 12(or whatever it is) or did you test with different numbers while working your way up?

fat_walrus · Post by **fat_walrus** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 5:59 pm

No, I have

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13

then I tried it with 14 instead and it still crashed

Squirrel7Hunter · Post by **Squirrel7Hunter** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 6:03 pm

I dont know if this will help but in my map I have these cp's
1
2
3
4
5

and 12

at cp 12 they dont spawn, I dont know why but when in game cp12 is called cp2.. try removing two digit cp's from game, did u add the cp's in yur lua , you know with the default 1,2,3 and 4?
