    Default problem with making custom maps

    hi everyone,

    I've been working on creating custom maps for the Atc mod using the lordz map tutorial.

    Everything is working fine except I have 2 problems:

    1. to implement buildings I need a model converter or something, though it is not included in the tools. Does anyone know where to get this converter?

    2. When trying to make my mod pack the pack manager keeps giving an error. The error occurs in 2 occasions:
    -When I try to adjust the localisation file to include my new maps and I try to save it won't work.
    -When i try to adjust the db/battles_tables

    the error text can be found below:

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    See the end of this message for details on invoking
    just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

    ************** JIT Debugging **************
    To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
    application or computer (machine.config) must have the
    jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
    The application must also be compiled with debugging
    enabled.

    For example:

    <configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
    </configuration>

    When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
    will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
    rather than be handled by this dialog box.


    Does anyone know how to fix this? since I can't get my maps ingame unless I fix this bug

    thx in advance for any help

    greetings,
