try saving and restarting ZE. sometimes objects and regions, etc. do that sometimes, im not sure why lol. You have to have a spawn path for each cp and make sure that each path is called for in each corresponding CPs object details (the tab thingy in object mode)

The CPs are matched up, but I don't know what you mean. Just save my map, and exit ZE, then go back in??

And I'll try what 501st said.

EDIT
I did what 501st said, it started up and I began loading my map, but again, after it was done loading the screen went black and crashed back to desktop.

i said to restart ZE if you can't select an object or path or something (often happens when you delete it)
Heres a pic of what im talking about. Ooooh wait i know exactly whats wrong! you were most likely in the wrong layer adding/deleting spawn paths. make sure that all spawn paths are placed under the conquest layer (i assume this is conquest) and of course that all your cps are also under the conquest layer.

sorry for crappy messed up photobucket quality lol.

Hate to break it to you, but I've been doing this in Conquest the whole time.
I don't think you understand what I mean...
There are 3 extra paths on my map, I can't select them because they don't appear on the spawn path toolbar on the side. They are just paths on the map, but aren't labeled, and don't appear anywhere else than the map itself.

ok now post your bfront2.log

What is the bf2.log? Is that the error message? Because this time, it just crashed with no message at all.

the bfront2.log can be found in the same place as the modtool.exe
unless you have vista, then you click the

this one:

Here it is, but I warn you, it is long:

ok there are no sev 3's in there so i dont know what is causing this.
Are you loading custem sides?
i'm asking this because i found this:

No, not loading any custom sides. No custom weps, units, or even skins. I do have BFX and The Dark Times mods, but I can't run those with my map so I don't see the problem.

only thing i can think of is the spawn paths. Do you have them on the conquest layer and are they named cp*_spawn? and is it the same in the cp properties? they ARE case-sencetive.

*cp name

*cp name

I believe he stated that they were all under the conquest layer. The name doesn't really matter as long as its consistent. (if its named cp1_spawn you have to call it exactly that in the cp1 object properties) Im a little confused, do you have 5 seperate spawn paths with a distinct name that's being referenced in each corresponding cp?
just another random thing to check, in the cp objects, you choose a side (0, 1, 2) is there a mix of 1s and 2s? If theres only cps for one side im not sure what happens.

Here is a list of my spawn/control/capture's:

cp1_spawn/control/capture
cp2_spawn/control/capture
cp3_spawn/control/capture
cp4_spawn/control/capture
cp5_spawn/control/capture

("spawn/control/capture" are different files completely separate.)

Like I said there are those random default spawn paths on my map that aren't listed anywhere else, only visible on the map. (Unselectable too)

Edit: The cps match up with their corresponding regions/spawn paths. The CPs do have teams CPs 1 and 2 go to Team 1, CPs 3 and 4 go to Team 2, and CP 5 goes to team 0 (neutral).

First things first, fill that soldieranimation pool.

Well, I'm kinda new to modding, and have no clue how to do that.
Could you inform me somehow?

When push the Path button on the Edit Mode area it will show you all the paths on the map not just the layer you are working on so to find your wayward path you will have to go through all the layers and check if any path show up there, this includes the base layer.
After you did your changes did you press the update world req and mode MRQs thing that shows up when you press the configure button. Shouldn't need to since you didn't add any layers to the different modes but it won't hurt anything if you do press it.

As for the soldier animation pool, in the list of pools in your LUA just add in a line for SoldierAnimation and set it to at least 500. Somehting sort of like this, I place it between those two because I like to keep things sort of alphabetical.

SetMemoryPoolSize("SoundSpaceRegion", 64)
SetMemoryPoolSize("SoldierAnimation", 500)
SetMemoryPoolSize("TreeGridStack", 1024)

Ok, first off, I don't even know where the configure button is... I just press save map and then munge it.

And, where do I type in that lua? In the ***c_con and the ***g_con? Remember I am really new to this.

Edited my post while you posted

Oh Configure button is at the top it is the one labled Configure

BUt I just checked and that won't do anything for your cps anyway so don't worry about it.

what kind of era are you making? CW or GCW? open the ***c_con for CW and ***g_con for GCW and add it.
