Works for me, but maybe you have to log in on the TWC?

Having some issues...

Put all this in a mod folder, worked fine... edited files to reflect my map, simply be adding land mass and editing the size of the files (510x337)... all I did was add the land, of the same color as the original piece of land (212-198-206)... changed nothing else (save making all of the .tga's match up) in size and land masses)...

Now when I attempt to start campaign, it does nothing but go back to the single player menu... then I can't even go into the campaign screen unless I back out to the main menu and try again... get the same error. What could cause this?

Heh you're lucky, at least you get an error that has a proper error message.
Enable error logging and see what it throws up.

Seems it doesn't like the location of the settlement... which is odd, I didn't move it.

EDIT: okay, moved the settlement and characters away from the edge of the map, and now I'm getting a lockup once it gets past the loading screen.

I enter campaign, it holds for a while (presumably building the map), then goes to the England intro. After that I hit the normal loading screen, which loads normally, then a black screen with just the hourglass cursor on it and it locks there... I can't even ctrl-alt-delete out, I have to shut down my system with the power button to get out... similar to the time-stamp issue after unpacking. Error log is blank.

PS- 100th post, hurrah!

EDIT: Finally waited it out and got an error report... yay... unspecified.
