Im trying to convert from BF1 to BF2 an unfinished map of a friend of mine's. I followed Teancum's tutorial to the letter. Unfortunately, though it doesn't crash, none of the CPs are available to spawn from. I've searched and found a few cp problems related to converting a BF1 map to BF2, but none of those threads helped me much. I triple-checked to make sure the cps are set up properly both in the editor and in the LUA. I get some errors in my error log: Also, I have several hundred iterations of this: My LUA: The lua-related error leads me to think that the CP1 = CommandPost:New{name = "CP1"} line is somehow wrong, but I see no problem with it.

have you considered just remaking the commandposts?

Try putting the CP's in the base layer instead of the conquest layer.

No, thats not a good idea. All command posts, and there respective spawnpaths, control and capture regions should be in the conquest layer. I've just converted another map myself, and have found that after deleting the texture layers, and reaplying them has helped, but I cant say thats the reason it worked. I also did several manual cleans of the worlds munged files. It took several munges before it worked, but I cant really say what was the main cause.

Edit:
Another problem I found was if I created the world with more than the one mode other than conquest, I would just have a black selection screen but after deleting the CTF, and assault modes and deleting the corresponding references in the addme.lua, and mission.reg scripts, this also worked. I was then able to add them later.

Hmm. I noticed something strange: after renaming my CPs properly to match the LUA, they would revert back to their original, incorrect names when I hit the enter key. I couldn't find any way to stop that from happening, so I redid the LUA to match the cp's ZE names, rather than the other way around. It works now, but I would still like to find out what that last error I posted means.
