Thanks for feedback, although it may be sometime before said mod even gets off the ground. Having an issue atm with the map

Having an issue with my map. I've expanded the canvas of the americas map for kingdoms north and east, and followed all the directions from the guide. The campaign itself will run, but once i get into battles it will CTD. The only files i've modified are the ones listed in this guide(Myrradal's(sp)), and the fog.tga. I deleted both the radar maps so the campaign radar map will adjust itself to the map. now the only problem i have is when i go into a battle on the campmap, custom battle, or scenario battle, the game will crash just after loading. from what i see it looks like the game ground texture is thrown off; some maps have ground with a big black hole under the troops start local, some look like the troops are starting in the sky or water.
The campmap works fine with the new map, and I havent edited any other files so either im seriously overlooking something, or the modding community might have a new roadblock ahead. Just waiting on feedback from modders now.
