Need help with map now

[volbound1700]

I have attached two maps (original down load) and my attempt to "blank" it.

Both maps are crashing in my mod. Can someone assist in fixing this one or provide me anothfer good blank map for my Mod?


I need a map with full Mediterranean with plenty of room in Greece (need room in Moesia for at least 3 cities). I also want India and Britain on the map. Northern Europe (Scandinavia) and Russia are not required (I would like at least a little bit of Germany, all of France, and Crimea).

The attached map meets my requirements the best out of everything that I found.

It is now doing it for all of the maps. Here is the error screenshot:

If you've already used a dll that increases the amount of players allowed, keep in mind that a map file has to have all of them defined, at least as empty teams. Otherwise they are guaranteed to crash.

Does that go for even after you load it in game. I loaded the map with 26 players and it worked. (The map defined 50). I hit "enter Worldbuilder" and then it crashed.

How many players does your DLL allow? Make sure the map and the DLL match exactly in the amount of teams and players. ("0" also counts as one player.)

I did. I went into the random map and entered in 26 players and closed out 27 and above. The map loaded fine. Then when I tried to go into Worldbuilder, it crashed.

Hmm. Are you using the maps in first post? If not, will you post your map?

Reference attachment. I have other editions that I have edited but this is the original. The map creator is also communicating with me via the inbox. Hopefully the creator may have a blank original

I have fixed it. I used the map maker program in the following link:

Sounds good. I will still try to pinpoint what was going on.

What you have do to fix it manually is right click the map file and edit it with Notepad. Then remove all players and teams with an ID higher than the number of players your DLL will allow (remembering that 0 is a number). The DLL and the map file must match exactly, so you have to edit it in Notepad or on the map program. That's what is wrong with that specific file that you posted.

There was a Mod issue as well. One of the Civilization's graphics. That was causing the crashes. I have Mod and Scenario done. Very happy with results. Will post soon.
