CTDs during campaign start

[wlesmana]

Ok, maybe this is a stretch but I got to the point where my custom provincial campaign just CTDs on me with no error message. I got error messages before and had been fixing that until now, where it just dies with no message at all.

So I'm asking help from experienced map editors/modders, what are the POSSIBLE causes of CTDs during campaign boot up that won't give you an error message? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!


PS. In the desc_strat.txt, I already made sure the names of named characters are right and from desc_names.txt. I also cut down on the building list, so each settlement only has a main city building and wall, at most. This is for 1.6/BI and the map worked in 1.5.

I'll resist the urge to ask if you deleted the map.rwm file...

At what point on the loading bar does it CTD?

[wlesmana]

Yes, I deleted map.rwm.
And since this is provincial campaign, it doesn't just CTD. It just won't load. Sorry for not clarifying that. I chose the campaign, chose a faction to play, hit Play and it turned back to the campaign selection screen. If I quit, it gives me an error message stating RTW just crashed.

What is the exact error message you get when you exit the game?

Soundsl ike a 1.5 issue with the campaign faction descriptions missing. If not that then I would say an error in the Rebels file, because if there is a mistake it will crash on load without a message. Also if there is a mistake in settlement names also.

Did you make this map yourself?

I'm sure you're not as dumb as me but I just fell for this one with similar CTD results! Did you also check that the names of your slave generals exist in the faction names section refered to by their sub_faction in descr_strat.
