When you downloaded BFBuilder, there should have been a program called SPTest.exe in the folder. Place that in the folder containing your Battlefront.exe, run it, try to play your map, and post the BFront.log it generates here.

Make sure that all your CPs are set up correctly.

You've maybe put something in your world folder that doesn't belong there, that can result in munge errors that produce maps without anything in it.

it has no water right now. I ran it with sptest looked through all the errors and saw nothing that would cause it. This problem has happened with some of my other maps too. One weird thing is that i cant open it with bfbuilder pro, it said there was an error. i can only open it with bfbuilder.

When you munge, does it say: "warning: modid.req is not binary file"?
