    Default CTD without map.rwm generating

    Ok, this is kind of embarrasing... I was just editing webbird's europa 270 bc map in order to add and change some provinces, and I'm stuck with a nasty CTD with no map.rwm generating.

    following TW wikipage entry called "Campaign map not loading_RTW" I'll give you the following information


    EDIT: Some more useful information
    a) I'm using Windows XP
    b) I mod the map with irfanview (rrfanview color counting gives a result of 202 unique colors [200 regions plus black and white)

    1- I'm modding RTW version 1.5
    2- I'm modding Webbird's Europa 270bc version 8.0 found here

    3- The last thing I did was to change scandinavia's regions in order to put them in spain, which I considered was lacking of regions, so these four regions:
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Code:
    Gothi_Insulae		;;;Carpetania
    	Muria		;;;Castulo		
    	spain
    	Goths
    	136 41 164
    	copper, iron, amber, pottery, slaves		
    	5
    	8
    
    Varjager		;;Veltonia				
    	Ruserna		;;Salamantica		
    	gauls				
    	Chatti				
    	50 255 54				
    	lead, timber, furs, slaves		
    	5
    	5
    
    Svealand			;;;Cantabria	
    	Finia			;;;Vellika
    	gauls			
    	Chatti				
    	255 255 63				
    	gold, iron, hides, slaves		
    	5
    	7
    
    Sviones				
    	Birka				
    	germans				
    	Chatti				
    	255 66 245				
    	timber, copper, gold, iron, wild_animals		
    	5
    	4


    Then, I used "Sahara" region (which I want to become a unconquerable region) to fill all scandinavia. Then I ran the test. CTD with map.rwm generating.

    Then I realised that a region I added from scratch called "Lacetania" hadn't a entry in both descr_region.txt and descr_strat.txt. I added it. Now I was having the CTD that matters for this post. I thought having a too big sahara region was the source of problem, so instead of making scandinavia Sahara, I made it the region next to what I think could be Finland. Same results

    5- I must say that I do have show_err in my shortcurt, so this is a CTD.

    I also need to say that while I modded descr_groundtypes.tga, the changes made aren't the source of the CTD, since I tested those changes before. In the same way, the regions from Africa added in Spain (Qamini, Mauretania and Arabia) aren't the problem either, because they were tested too before this CTD.

    EDIT: the edition in ground_types is in Sicilia, as you can see is a minimal change in order to have its settlement possible to be reached

    And to be sure that a region I deleted wasn't the source of problem, I readded the province of "Hervli" in Scandia, but the same problem

    I'll upload the important file, which I think are the following:

    descr_regions.txt
    descr_strat.txt
    map_regions.tga I modded
    map_ground_types I modded

    europa 207bc mod

    Whatever you need please tell me

    thanks in advance!



    EDIT: I think is important to say that I checked every new region I added so they have the correct black dot (and the white one if neccesary) to prevent "'map_regions error' - missing black pixel in a region area. Also, incorrect drawing of pixel (more than 1x1 pixel square)."

    from your map_regions.tga
    these two regions have the same colour



    this is not good

    thanks a lot makanyane! I feel a little stupid not having realised it, but thanks a lot!

    anyway, that seems not to be the source of the problem (still getting the CTD) but at least I won't work in the dark
