Hi gents
Well, my map woes are increasing exponentially each time i fire up the game. this is happening after no recent changes. a fe days ago, i posted with a weird problem of not being able to save on my Normandy maps - even those using different load.ini's. Out of the roughly 7 or 8 normandy maps i have, only one is currently working. the others will load in FMB, but will not allow me to save. In pursuit of fixing this problem, i suddenly started getting a 70% CTD using the map-mode bldconf. I've been using different bldconfs and conf's, but the result is the same: 70% CTD trying to load map mode.
Okay, it gets worse. Today, i thought i'd go through my maps and find any other problems, so that i know what i'm dealing with. so, i started the long process of saving a mission on each map to see what's going on.
first alarms: 90% of previously built missions can load, but now are not playable any more because the mission doesn't save. If I load a previously built mission, i also notice that the flight/AC that has the 'Player' assigned to it, is now not selected as Player.
So far, 90% of my maps have the same issue: I CAN"T SAVE ANY MISSIONS, and can't play previously set up missions!
I'm pretty sure this is related to the 70% CTD in map mode, but can't find the culprit file. If its not bldconf or conf, what could it be?
Of my working maps, so far there are only a few, and they are all newer ones: KTO, Aleutians, Grand Canyon - these work fine. All my older(defaul?t) maps like Berlin, Ardennes, Balaton, Normandy, etc...can't save on pretty much all of them....?
I suspect, among others, possibly a corrupt exe...feck, actually, i don't know anymore....it could be anything...
I'm stuck.... :roll:
