Guys, I have a really bad problem. I just finished my map today, and as soon as I went to launch the game, the game crashed. I tried again and again, to no avail. Could the map be the cause?

Did you check the bf2 log? What is the last thing you did to it?

If it crashed when you start the game, you probably messed up your addme.lua. Move the maps in your addon folder out temporarily and try starting the game.

*Has no idea what the BF2 log is*wait no.... I'll check it out. I had custom sides and Jedi vs. Stormies.

From the FAQ thread.

Answer - The BF2_modtools.exe is the debug executable, copy it from the main BF2_modtools folder and paste it in the same folder as your battlefront2.exe, usually:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
then you can launch BF2_modtools.exe and play your map to get a BFront2.log located in that same folder.
If you have the DVD version check THIS LINK for a DVD version of BF2_modtools.exe

Follow above. Also, was the map playable in a previous munge? What specifically did you change between munges?

I only munged once, and I'm pretty sure I went over the object limit. A shame. It had so much potential. I'm working on a Roleplay map right now, I know you guys usually don't like a hodgepodge of environments. I'll make another map in place of my map, as the official first of the map series(During the Great Jedi Purge). Plus, I had Coruscant assets on the Nar Shaddaa map, so it would look funny with Upper City assets. In the meantime, how can I change the model of a Rebel Marksman to an Ep3 Clone? I changed the ODF file,and probably the MSH, and when I used MSH viewer, it was a Rebel Marksman body with the edited clone skins all over it. Ingame, would it be different?

I don't see why you would need to change the model. Why not just make a custom unit odf that uses the clone model, re-skin that clone, and then add it to your side?

Oh, never thought of that. I'll look into that. I have no use of the Rebels, though. I'm doing somewhat of a hodgepodge containing characters based on my Xfire friends and myself. If you've heard of Tourny's EBF(Epic Battlefield), the sides are sort of like that.(Tourny also happens to be a friend of mine on Xfire). I have the sides representing ourselves planned. Now I'm going to decide what the other team will be. Any suggestions?

Evil versions of yourselves?
