BEX error while editing dune...

[THE AQIB]

I get a BEX error when making emperor mission 6 in which i used almost all the houses on the map...

any idea what might be causing it??

all houses and i added many troops in the map....

map size is 90x90....

hoping to get an answer soon....

any idea cuz iused teams like

atriedes=0

harkonnen=1

ordos=7

emperor=3

fremen=9

smugglers=9

mercenaries=0

any mistakes??

Well it may be caused by the map size. Try using a normal one, such as 96x96 or 128x128. Use the arrows when creating the map, or when resizing it, and choose a normal one. If that doesnt work, it probably is the .mis file. You probably chose one which is smaller than the .map file. Note that you should always use .mis files which have the biggest size: such as O9V1/2.mis, A9V1/2.mis, H9V1/2.mis. If the map file is smaller than the mis file then thats ok, but vice-versa it crashes the game.

 

If none of the above work then I suggest to begin again, from scratch, using the biggest .mis file. It shouldnt be caused by the houses present on the map.

trying to reach side out of range means theres too much buldigns and units in map

@feda :that I tried... first with. 128x128 then I went to 96 loosing the whole built map...

@ nuclear harv : well few minutes before I found that out hence I cleared that error and now the map is playable... actually it was the wall count... I went crazy building that map...

@ all: thanks... I got the solution and is very similar to nuclear harvestor's...

Thats not necessarily true. I fixed it once by changing the .mis file, nothing regarding building count. But if AQIB said he fixed it that way then that one is true as well probably.

if you put too much wall game crash,  putting buldings esult  in  error too many starting buldigns for hopuseXXX where xxx is  buldings set for house. , this goes same to units too

well I guess there was a building limit on the mis file tht I used... tht error bugged me for two whole months...

Yea the limit is in the mis file, I think. Thats why i always use last missions' mis files.
