Can't run my map (Help again,lol)
« on: August 19, 2008, 03:45:53 am »
Yeah so when i go save, compile, etc then run soldat, soldat just closes itself. I'm making a TW at the moment so of course it has many poly and scenery, but i haven't gone over the limit or anything. So can a map only be a certain length/height? Help would be much appreciated, and whoever solve the problem i will give 10 points to. ;)

Provide info on map please.  (dimentions, polycount, scenery count, collider count, etc.)

i dont think you can have that big demensions, but im no good mapper so i might be wrong
reduce the coliders count a bit (wth men i think there will be lots fo palces to camp in this map :D), i think 125 or 120 could be good.
and whats the error ur getting? or is the soldat just closing without saying anything

Yeah it's just closing without saying anything, and i also suspected the demensions. The colliders shouldn't be a problem becuase i didn't go past the limit. ;)

Surely it only needs to be about 2 - 3 screens high, it has no jets, right?

I guess... But surely that's not the problem, I'll try it anyway ;)

Have you tried just selecting everything and making it smaller (i'm guessing under 10000 wide) and testing that?

And how about uploading the map so others can test it as well, may be some kind of hardware problem.

I just made a map in polyworks (well it wasn't really a map, it was just a big poly) that was a lot bigger than this map and I could run it fine. ;)

Ok, process of elimination.
Make a map with 1764 polys and test that.

Yeah, I want to test this map.

I just ran a map recently with about the same dimensions, loaded with scenery etc, and everything was fine.
