Symptom: Game Freezes after arrow is clicked to start campaign - new map.rwm is generated but loading bar is not reached.
•Problems with large areas of impassable ground type in conjunction with lack of land area on a large complex map (map.rwm size approx 13MB) see here.
Symptom: Game CTD's with no message shortly after arrow is clicked to start campaign - new map.rwm is generated.
•Width or height of map exceeds maximum. (Maximum = 510pixels map_regions, 1021pixels map_heights size.
•Misspelt character name in descr_strat.txt, or use of name which doesn't belong to faction you have assigned it to - check in data/descr_names.txt for faction specific names.
•An elephant or chariot unit which is included in the descr_strat.txt file has an 'officer' assigned to it in export_descr_units.txt. Those types of units cannot have an officer and unlike other unit related bugs this one causes CTD on trying to load campaign.
•Having the Romans able to horde "and" have the senate as their super-faction. (under BI.exe)
The game freezes when i click the arrow to start the campaign and never reaches the loading bar, then ctds with a new map.rwm being created. I have tried filling all sea areas with land mass to sea if it was anything to do with the amount of sea, but the problem persisted, I have only altered the map and I am using the rome.exe, which rules out most of the causes for the second sympton and the width or height doesnt exceed maximum. What would make ground impassable as my map is just one big flat plain with one ground_type for the land areas, it might be the first sympton if i knew what that meant. If anyone has a heard of this problem before, i would appreciate any help you could give me. :D
