    Hi, i'm quite new to modding RTW, but from what i've been experiencing the past week, my common errors were:
    1. wrong tga file dimensions
    2. inappropriate name for faction character (not found in respective entry in descr_names)
    3. wrong RGB value in descr_regions or map_regions
    4. non-black or non-blue pixel in maps_heights
    5. incorrect rivers in map_features

    but what happens to your map? does it generate a map.rwm file? do you delete it everytime you alter a tga file? do it generate cliffs_debug or corrected_regions files? do you reach the loading bar?

    The Map_heights was muddled up, same with the regions , i just removed the map and started fresh, this time it was a lot more successful, i had an old map that i carved out
