Why is this weapon crashing the game? Firing it, I mean.

I havent coded for a while but i think its radlevel and the fact radioactive=yes is missing from the projectile. You'd better check it

Almost. It's Radiation=yes on the warhead, and it definately should be there.

I'm not sure about this thing, I see it for the first time: :/

Bright=yes

Try adding radiation=yes to warhead like Ren said, and remove this thing. If won't work, tell then, I will test it by myself.

Nothing wrong with Bright=yes.

If Radiation=yes doesn't solve the problem, check your spelling of the weapon on the unit, and make sure the warhead is in the [Warheads] list

LordAxion · 10-24-2004, 12:30 PM

Actually the warheads list doesnt matter, hehehe, its a mapmod and you can get away without dynamicly listing new warheads/weapons. The bad thing is new buildings and units have to overwrite something else... but hey, thats what the civi plane is for.

---Update: Radiation=yes tag didnt help. To clear this up- the wierd thing is, the tank fires the shots, it actually gets 2 of the 4 out, then right before the first one would hit the game crashes. Internal Error and all.

Sounds like the proble is on the warhead then, but I can't see anything wrong with yours. Unless you changed any properties of APOCEXP ?

Renegade · 10-24-2004, 02:05 PM

With this information, I'd say we can be absolutely sure that it's the warhead...are you sure the game got your changes? Is everything saved? Is the version you played the latest version of the map? No spelling mistakes done?

And answer martyr's question, although I don't know whether changing anims is possible in modmaps at all...

ArgCmdr · 10-24-2004, 03:53 PM

Animation properties arent editable via maps.

Last time i checked, you must define new warheads too in them...unless youre overwriting older ones...

Marshall7a · 10-24-2004, 04:06 PM

D'oh I forgot that. Maybe someone else could try that weapon/warhead and see if it works.
