Solved

Thanks to Dromaikites, I've been able to use MM map with BI, and to edit it.
I know have a version with 4 provinces.
The first one is owned by the Huns, as it should be
The 3 other ones should be owned by the Sarmatians, the Sassanids and the Empire_west, but one the radar map, they appear as rebel, and if I try to scroll over them, CTD ~:confused:
Since the settlements were rebel, I checked everything on the map, and it appears that no character from descr_strat is on the map (except the hun one).

character Boz, named character, leader, age 45, , x 56, y 130

Here, the city Cimbrica is not owned by the Sarmatians, and Boz doesn't appear on the map. That's really weird. I already met a load of problems with map editing, but this one is really surprising.
And yeah, I deleted map.rwm.

Solved, there was an issue with

faction goths, balanced henry
denari 15000
dead_until_resurrected

Once again, the solution was obvious.

So what exactly was the problem and how did you solve it?

Thanks

Well, it looks like a faction can not be listed as dead_until_resurected if there's no conditions on when and how she would resurect in descr_sm_faction, descr_strat or descr_events. I just gave the goths a province and a character, and everything went fine.
It looked like that engine couldn't read what was below these lines

Perfect, this is a very useful discovery for the modding community. Thank you very much!
