#1: Problem Running Der Ost Front on CC3 / CoI Author: Hicks, Posted: Sun Feb 12, 2017 5:19 am With all the files installed (including the maps) I'm able to get to the requisition screen. Certain maps though e.g. Autobahn cause a crash when looking to begin the battle.
There's no error text though on the crash dialogue box, unlike when there is a warning and crash due to the display window size being too big for the dimensions of the in game map.
*EDIT*
I've gone through all the DOF maps and Autobahn 1 is the only one that has this problem. Tried it on both CC3 and CoI as a standalone map it it's the same (crash) result.
Anyone else had this problem and know of a solution?
Thanks in advance.
#2: Re: Problem Running Der Ost Front on CC3 / CoI Author: Hicks, Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2017 4:29 pm I've done a little more poking around. Took a map with the same dimensions as Autobahn and one by one renamed the maps files and tested at each stage with a working map. The only file that caused an error is/what would be "Autoban.txt" all others displayed/loaded correctly. Would this be an easy fix? Recompile/adjust? I've never made or edited maps for Close Combat so this is all new to me.

What was the problem with the original .txt? If it's simple I'm wondering if I could make the fixes to any other maps that might have the same problem.
Again, thank you

#6: Re: Problem Running Der Ost Front on CC3 / CoI Author: Hicks, Posted: Tue Feb 14, 2017 4:55 pm I'll know what to look for in future now. Thank you!

Fixed on CCS. Thanks for the bug report Hicks and mick for fixing it.
I've got a number of maps saved that had I suspect the same problem. If I can use that fix and get them working how would it be best to make them available again?
Would a value of 0 cause problems? I've just looked at some of the files and they don't have -1 values but they do have 0's.
