Not exactly  I managed to add one map item, a lone arrow with text. So then, I thought, this can't be too 'ard. I added nine more map features, following the thread by Hemisent. Now the mission crashes. I've been over the code line by line and it all seems to match. I think I need to methodically go through and add them one by one, but I've been putting it off. Or I could be lazy and paste it up here... Estnische What you're experiencing happened to me time after time. By following Kyth's and others' advice you'll get through it. What I found out also was to pick a very simple mission (I used YL"s "Ambush" as an example) and copied a single component to a test mission and kept at it until I got that to work properly. Only then did I enter that component to my real mission. Good luck, this mission editor is the most frustrating and unintuitive piece of gobbledegook I've ever run across but it can be made to work as evidenced by so many great missions out there.

That's why I asked Big Duke to consider re-doing the Mission Editing manual. Not a peep since then,  |

So here goes. Firstly, using the mission editor I have ten map contours in my zones.engcfg file:  Then, I have used the format in Hemisent’s thread to create ten corresponding lines in the cs_map block of the scripts.engscr file:  As four of those are only symbols (the at_mines and forest_mix), I have six lines needing text, in the cariusmissions.text file:  How hard can it be? |

No problems with the zones and cs_map lines.
For the text lines, try placing the '()' immediately after the text label, for example:
txt_md_carius1_commandger() { Platoon HQ; }
instead of:
txt_md_carius1_commandger () { Platoon HQ; }

Well, we seem to have discovered the likely cause of your problem.
We hope you aren't goofing off again,

Dodging that whip of Kyth's required some fairly rapid reflexes  |

Weeeeeeeeeell.
I now can't get the mission to load in the mission editor. I've swapped some files it would seem, and I need to trawl through what has changed and sort it. No energy at the moment.
But it will happen!

At what percentage loading do you get the '001' error?

Might be something wrong with the map, or it might be the units.
Could you try deleting the problem contour (map_road_narva) manually from the zones.engcfg file?

I could think of a few reasons Well, as a sort of 'post-mortem', I can see that things were going swimmingly until Windows 7 started acting up. Also, and this goes for everyone else as well, make it a habit to backup any files that you're editing. Not everyone is good at editing text or even basic typing, |
