Okay. I've tried fixing these bugs all afternoon, but it just keeps crashing.

Log: Help!

There's probably more errors past that, so be sure to fill the memory pool (there's lots of topics here on how to do so).

post lua

I really have no idea Here's my .lua:

idk i think this could have something wrong wit it

Hidden/Spoiler:

ReadDataFile("sound\\tat.lvl;tat2gcw")
ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\rcr.lvl",
"tat_inf_jawa",
"gam_inf_gamorreanguard",
"camry",
"explorer")

Nah, that all checks out.

First, fill the SoldierAnimation memory pool. As a good rule of thumb, always, always, always do that first. The next thing to do is re-munge an re-test. Watch how far the loading gets (how many dots, or if it finishes, does it crash at the character select screen). And finally check the log for Severity: 3 errors. Let us know what you find.

This is the one severity 3 that I noticed
The Camry collision error are interesting but not a problem. I shall have to look into them anyway.

I my experience sound severity 3's don't cause crashes though.

*confirm*

Okay. Update...thing...sorta...

It loaded 7 dots.

My log: My .lua:

Yep, that'll do it. Fix your severity 3's (aside from the sound one, it'll never crash the game) and test again.

Well, I'm not sure how to fix the ones like this: Because the regions and CPs are all set up. As for the chunks, PM me on how to fix them, FragMe!.

Just so you know, the staff (I speak for most of us, probably all) discourages answering problems in a PM, because then only one person gets the answer.

My next question is this: Are your CPs named eli_cp1_control and eli_cp2_control? If you've changed their names then the vehicle spawns won't know that.

Also, if I remember right, using isCelebrityDeathmatch = true in your LUA will disable all vehicles, which may be causing things to barf. I could be wrong, I don't have an ObjectiveTDM.lua to look at.

I do know that the vehicle spawn severity 3 errors, like the sound ones, won't cause the map to crash, I get them all the time in my test map. It just means the vehicle won't die when it is abandoned away from the cp spawn point.

One thing to check just to be sure that the rcr.lvl is making it to the side directory in for your map. If it isn't then you may not have everything you need in place to properly munge a side.

If it is then another thing to try would be to, if possible, is to revert back to normal sides (no dc:) so just normal jawas and gamorreans. It won't find the vehicles so it just won't spawn them. You will have to of course revert back to the normal side lvl file and see if that still crashes the map.
If it doesn't crash after the reverting try adding back the custom sides a unit first then vehicles.

Have you changed any animations? Those will crash a map without and error being given (lol I know that one well)

No my CPs are named eli_cp1 and eli_cp2.
That was in there originally. I'll try taking it out and report back.

I've munged sides many times before and I don't think that's the problem.
I'll try reverting back to originals.
I don't even know HOW to change animations.

EDIT:
Well, doing what you said didn't work. It loaded 9 dots.

Log: My .lua (with a few fixed problems from the above log): The NEW log using the above .lua:

Well that's 2 dots more than before, you must be making progress
Next thing to do is try removing the vehicle spawns in ZE. If you make a back up copy of the world1 folder you can get your vehicle spawns back without having to put them all back in again.

Okay, I took out the vehicle spawns, but now I only get eight dots!

Log: It might be the sky.. I'll try changing it.

EDIT:
Nope. Sky didn't fix it.

Do the other game modes work?
If they do try putting a vehicle spawn in there.
Just to prove the vehicles and maybe the other custom side things work.
Other than that you may have to try from the begining for this particular mode.
