Campaign returns to menu after combining mods
First off, not sure if this is the right place and if not could the moderators please move it?
I have been trying to combine MOS with the DaC map and I think I have done most everything correctly. However, when I select any faction and try to start a campaign it kicks me back to the main menu and the error log gives no reason as to why. Prior to trying to combine the 2 mods I was able to run MOS with no issue. I've tried disabling UAC and running as administrator(says can't find kingdoms.exe). I'm very much at a loss as to what I have done wrong and any help would be appreciated.
I will post my error log when I get a chance.

Re: Campaign returns to menu after combining mods
Welcome to the fourm!
I wish I had better news, but as someone who has spent many days trying to do the same thing I can honestly say the crash could come from literally hundreds of reasons. If there is no error log explanation then the only way a second party can be useful is if you've kept a step-by-step changelog of each modification that you've made. If you have kept a changelog we can look it over and see if you're missing anything.
Off the top of my head here are some of the big merges that you need for this conversion (this isn't everything, just some of the main ones)
-descr_strat (all the x,y co-ords, several generals also need merging)
-descr_regions (merge all the hidden_resources, favor the DaC region types over the MOS ones)
-campaign_script (every single script for MOS needs to be re-written with DaC co-ordinates)
-DaC text files need to be merged
-EDB needs to be merged

Thanks for the response Mank. I guess it's back to the drawing board.
Also, how should I lay out a changelog so that it would be useful to another person?
