CTD on Loadup after adding new building/building type?

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

All in the title lads. I basically added a new "Admiralty" to the EDB file (so I could have larger warships for the Romans, Egyptians and Carthaginians etc). Unfortunately everytime I launch the loading screen comes up and immediately CTD's with no message prompt or error message. Just a plain kick to desktop.

Any ideas? Here is what I added to the EDB:

Are you using -show_err?

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

Yep! Normally it would show, but it just plain kicks.

[Aradan]

Have you added corresponding code/descriptions in text/export_buildings.txt?

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

Have you added corresponding code/descriptions in text/export_buildings.txt?

Not yet; I usually test the core alteration first before adding any descriptions. Could the absence of entries in export_buildings be the cause?

[Aradan]

Yes. You need to add the description-related code, even if you leave the description itself blank.

You'll need: {admiralty_name} (for the entire tree), {admiralty}, {admiralty_desc} and {admiralty_desc_short}.

Now the game runs, but I can't enter the Imp Campaign, and when I go to exit the game it crashes. Gods sake

Try removing carthaginian ownership of the building. Does it load then?

It does aye, but now theres an error in descr_strat; apparently the settlement cannot be created (Latium, the 1st settlement). I checked and there is no port present for Latium at the game beginning.

Deleting the map.rwm fixed it

[Aradan]

If you want to add 'carthaginian" ownership back, you need to edit desc_ui_buildings.txt and remove/outcomment either (not both) of those lines:

    carthaginian eastern
    carthaginian egyptian

And then regenerate map.rwm.

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

Thanks; all sorted. I have one more question though; how do I implement strat models for a new port level? Everytime I try to include a new level the game CTD's, saying that "the script is looking for 3 port_land/port_sea but only found 4" or something like that.

[Aradan]

You may have made a mistake in the code, but I also think the game doesn't allow more than 3 slots of port models.

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

I triple checked so I wouldn't put it down to human error; so that's unfortunate. Do you know of any way around it?

[Aradan]

Nope, sorry.
