    Default [SOLVED] CTD after modifying export_descr_ancillaries

    Hello!

    I get CTDs (with an almost empty log, seen at the end of this post) after modifying some files. The purpose was to add a character to the campaign map, whom is Guan Ping. Here's what I did :

    - I've create 6 TGA files for the character portrait. Everything is good and properly name.
    - I go to descr_strat, I remove Guan Ping from the character record and relative. I had him on the map (149,132) near Guan Yu with a light cav and 2 spearmen units.
    - What I did is copy the line of Guan Yu and mod what needed to be mod :

    Code:
    character    J-0202-GuanYu, named character, male,  age 32, x 146, y 132, portrait A448,  label GuanYu_1, hero_ability The_Flower_of_Chivalry, battle_model GuanYu_generaltraits GuanYu 1 , JbAAAA0100 1 , Lz-0202-0 1 , Jn1001 6 , Jn2000 6 , Jn3000 8 , Jn4001 1 , Jn5000 9 , JnA1000 3 , JnA2000 3 , JnA3000 3 , JnA4000 3 , JnA5000 3 , JnA6000 2 , JnA7000 7 , JnA8000 9 , JnA9000 2 , Jnxg2000 3 , G2220JnShu-A 1 , G2210JnShu-A 1 , GuanYu1100 1 , GuanYu1200 1 , GuanYu1300 1 , C3070JnBJ-A 1 , C3100JnPX-A 1 , C3160JnAY-A 1 , Jn-catholic 4

    unit        ZYhan_light_spear                exp 2 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
    - Then I create an ancillary for Guan Ping. I call it 1dao-102o.

    Code:
    Ancillary 1dao-102o    Type Standard
        Transferable  1
        Image 1dao-102o.tga
        ExcludedAncillaries 1dao-101, 1dao-102, 1dao-103, 1dao-104
        Description 1dao-102o_desc
        EffectsDescription 1dao-102o_effects_desc
        Effect BodyguardValour  1
        Effect HitPoints  1
        Effect LocalPopularity  2
    Code:
    {1dao-102o}Young Dragon{1dao-102o_desc}A high quality halberd commissioned and offered by Guan Yu to his adopted son. This legendary weapon has seen several fights including the battle of Changban, Chibi and Jiang Ling.\n
    {1dao-102o_effects_desc}Hit Points +1\nLocal Popularity +2\nExperience of General’s Bodyguards +1
    - Then I removed all triggers concerning the coming of age of Guan Ping, like these :

    Code:
    Trigger Cn-0213-GuanPing-2    WhenToTest CharacterComesOfAge
        Condition FatherTrait Lz-0202-0 > 0
              and I_TurnNumber > 32
              and I_TurnNumber < 40
        Affects A1090JnLJ-A  2000  Chance  100
        Affects B2170JnZC-A  1000  Chance  100
        Affects LzAAAA1000  1000  Chance  100
    So now... I'm just not sure what to do...

    Code:
    10:55:58.835 [system.rpt] [always] CPU: SSE210:55:58.835 [system.rpt] [always] ==== system log start, build date: Sep  5 2014 version development ===

    10:56:03.787 [system.rpt] [error] Uh oh. This isn't good. No idea why, but exiting now. Sorry pal.
    EDIT : I've find how to have a detailed log (i though I had already set the preferences for this). Here it is : Attachment 358735

    EDIT 2 : *SIGH* After doing it all again from scratch, I've come to conclusion that the problem is the ancillary. Not sure why. Maybe the mod already have the max ancillary the game can use?

    So here's what I've put in EDA and cause my CTD for unknown reason.

    Code:

    Default Re: CTD after modifying some files

    Sorry for the double post, it is just to let you know that I figured out what was wrong, but now I just need little help making the new ancillary not crash the game.

    EDIT : I search for a tutorial to help me finding what was wrong with my modification, but I didn't find any via Google. The thing is the tutorial that I needed was referenced on google, but instead of being the page 1 of the tutorial, it was page 2, so when I click on the link in google search, I thought it was just a random thread and didn't realise I was on the wrong page of the right tutorial loll. Anyway, case solved!
