    I'm not really sure if these things cause problems, just running through the things that I ... er ... do different ...

    -map_radar2 ==> make it the size of map_regions (240*304px)
    -map_radar1 ==> 1/4 the size of radar2 (120*152px)

    if your modding 1.3 or above I think these lines in descr_strat are no longer used;
    -settlement_tax 50

    imo you need a family-member for at least 2 factions (and set these families up correctly)

    a direct CTD "probably" in this instance means you have incorrectly set up some units name OR have just experianced the landmass bug
    (to test if its the landmass bug or not, start your descr_strat file with like "xxx", if you get a KTM now instead of a CTD its the incorrect naming thingy, else probably the landmass bug)

    but before you do anything I really really really (I mean it ..;)) read up on the tut. Charge linked as well as this one;

    ps; I dont think, by looking over them, that your files contain errors, but the above 2 mentioned problems are 2 I havent/cant check out for you ...

    Map has also got quite a large area of sea especially in the bottom right corner, if it isn't generating a map.rwm (is it making one?) then it might just be the old landmass (too large an individual area of sea) problem.

    If you are not getting .rwm and nothing else works try just in map_heights.tga putting in some more areas of land RGB1,1,1 or higher to break up the sea - if that works you'll need to re-design map so its either smaller overall or crop it differently so there isn't such a large sea area at the bottom.

    i have re-maded the map to have more land.This time things go better(the other map doesn't make a .rwm thisone does).But i still getting a CDT... .MAybe because i have set up to few regions?I just don't want to go adding regions if i don't know if it 's buggy and then maybe start again .Again i have checked all possible common CDT...so it must be something else.

    It might well be having problems with too few regions (or more likely the fact that the big ones are too large) try adjusting map_regions so the small ones cover more of map.

    My computer used to load maps with large regions but they would crash the graphics later when scrolling. Depending on computer you might find yours won't load it with that large a region.
