Okay, so I add a couple of new aircraft. I got their W3Ds in the W3D folder, I got their tga's in the Texture folder, fire the game up, build the airfield, there's the two new images in the command bar, click on each of them once and their in the getting ready window, timer winds down and then their done. Hanger door opens and just about the time you're thinking, "Where's the aircraft?" , the game crashes back to the desktop and you get a serious error message, but the crash file doesn't point anywhere specific.


Any ideas?

I've had that before, it usually means there's a fundamental problem in the code of that particularly object. Worldbuilder might pick it up, otherwise it's just a case of working through the code to find the error.

Usually, unless you have a deep understanding of the object code, I would just start the unit from scratch.

If the game crashes upon the creation of the game, then it is probably related to the locomotor or the object code itself.
As said above, WB might help you in this case.

If the gamecrashes at the splashscreens and it doesn't show up in WB, then it's probably a command/UI issue.

No, it crashes when the aircraft just made is suppose to be rolling out of the hanger

[key0p]

you should post your units code.I have a suspicion its an art code problem
